Links to other languages...

Post by Moonchild » 2011-09-09, 21:05

I was actually thinking of doing it like this:

CookieCuller (Other languages:de, no) - Delete unwanted cookies
-- and also limit the "other languages" to add-ons that actually have a version in a different language or that are multilingual or to an official product page that has information in that specific language; simply pointing to a localized "framework" page with an otherwise English add-on, description and feedback is.. odd.

okay, together with the other add-ons above - quite a bit to do tomorrow, but i don't got much to do (no privates planed for Saturday, just need to paint something, have meetings on sunday then), weather won't be good to, so ...

Just: "no" links me again to "de" - do you know a list of ff-language links? cause "en" links me to "de" again, just "en-US" works! If not, i'll search for one tomorrow.

Your language problem may be related to the "preferred languages" you have set in your browser. :P

I see ^^ for example https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/cookieculler/ links me to the manly English French post, which you don't want, just if add-on is french too. Still some users have site preferences and PM has engl. default so if there are such language-fixings like en-US i'll try find them. So last question: any more languages to be added (which shouldn't be that hard due to copy link and exchange short-language-cut)?

...? How about only adding those languages the add-on is available in? Like I said? Not adding more languages if it's just displaying AMO (and not the add-on) in a different language?

How can i check that in which language the add-on is available? But i must confess in a short check from the ones i installed i haven't found an add-on really available in several languages (for de: in de only), but maybe i have to do sume further searching, installed them from add-on manager which might installed engl. default, and some might have language switcher like compatibility checker.

I'm afraid you'll just have to do some work and go to the developer's site and/or links indicated by the developer in the add-on description.
For example: status-4-evar (which the Pale Moon status bar add-on is based on) has a link to the babelzilla information page at http://www.babelzilla.org/forum/index.p ... topic=6532 listing the languages supported.
You'll find though that MOST add-ons are English only.
