Screenshot Attachments
Dear POEditor Team,
we are very happy with the current POEditor solution. But there is one Feature we are missing: Screenshot Attachments. It would be much easier to handle all our IDs if we could add a screenshot in addition to a comment. With screenshots the context would be much easier to understand.

In many cases the developers are the ones making the screenshots and they don't have access to the localization platform.
So making a screenshot and putting a link to it in the comment makes sense.
This idea is a good one, but it doesn't have that much support that would trigger a change like POEditor starting to store user's files on our servers. We prefer not to for obvious reasons. -

Hello, I see that this feature of a Screenshot attachment is being considered about a year now. Are you planning to install this feature? As this is very important for us as well.

There is no possibility to pass multiple comments to a language file (if it supports comments at all), so where we are able to import or export a term with a comment attached, we do this with the 1st comment.

Ok, Thank you very much for the fast reply! What is meant with "We always import and export the first comment of a term, so you'll be able to pass this kind of information." ? A 2nd, 3rd...comment is not saved permanently to a term?

We already have a system that parses the comments and looks for links to images. If it finds such links, it gives a preview inside the comment (with the possibility to see the larger image).
So what we recommend (and what seems acceptable for our users) is to add a link to your screenshots in the term's comment section. We always import and export the first comment of a term, so you'll be able to pass this kind of information.
