Congrats for your product !

Language definitions and in-line comments
1) I'm looking for a general dictionary of language terms. For example, German lists out 5 separate German language options.
2) How can I enable additional columns to populate within the project language translation page? For reference, I'd like to see all comments on the same line as the translations themselves to know which ones the dev has commented on / requires feedback.
1 vote1) You can find out here what each language name stands for: https://poeditor.com/kb/language-abbreviations
If you need another language, that’s not available in our list, you can add it as a custom language: https://poeditor.com/kb/custom-languages
2) Note that if your dev has an administrator role in the project, you’ll see the Comment button colored in orange whenever the last comment on a string was added by the dev.
Also important to note is that you can filter strings in any translation page by Last Commented.
All this is described in the last section of this article (How to see the newest comments in the UI): https://poeditor.com/kb/using-the-comment-system
If you want to fill in additional attributes for a term, you can do that in the Terms page: https://poeditor.com/kb/view-or-add-terms
Just click on a term to enter the Edit mode and the attributes will show up on the right.
You can find more information about term…

texts format is broken when exporting the translations
Hello,
with our developers we noticed that for a text with a format on our mobile app (bold for example), when we export the POEditor translation to update the mobile app texts, the format of the text is broken.Here is an example :
<string name="support_phone_number"><b>09 73 28 96 71</b>(Prix d'un appel local)</string>
becomes
<string name="support_phone_number">"<b>09 73 28 96 71</b>
(Prix d'un appel local)"</string>It also breaks the links or any tags that are attached to the text label.
Kind regards

Set Tags per Language
Just as a comment set in a specific language is marked with a corresponding language flag, it should be possible to set tags in a specific language and mark those tags with the corresponding language flag.
Tags can be set only in the Terms list. However, tags are necessary per langauge, especially for export.
For example, I want all strings with a certain content to be exported. I can either export them exclusively if they are tagged or fuzzy. Setting them as "Fuzzy" is not helpful, since other unrelated strings may be marked as Fuzzy, too. I don't want to…1 vote -
Change Default Export Settings (Properties Files)
When exporting properties files, I have to choose Export > Show Advanced > select Translated Only.
I have to do this for each language and for each development sprint. This bears great risk, because selecting the wrong option (e.g. All instead of Translated Only) may cause problems in our software when uploading the properties files (and has done so before).

Callback / webhook on translation changed
We cache our translations on a CDN. In order to update or cache we use a cronjob that updates all languages every 15 minutes.
It would be much more effective if we could get a callback / webhook for every change.
1 voteFor the time being, the only callbacks we have available are for the language proofread/language completed/term added events: https://poeditor.com/kb/how-to-use-poeditor-callbacks
There is no callback for when a translation is added/changed because this could easily become spammy, as translations are saved automatically in POEditor.
However, keeping the date of the last export and comparing it with the date a language was last updated in the project, you can find out if any other translations have been made.
You can use this method to see when the languages were last updated: https://poeditor.com/docs/api#languages_list

The problem with using with Unreal Engine
Hi.
This tool is so perfect, but one problem keeps me from using it.
Some of the text in my .po file contains "\r\n", which will divide them into several lines through this tool and will not be available for the Unreal Engine project.
I hope there will be a solution related to this.
Thanks.
1 votePOEditor’s behavior is to convert \r\n to \n on export so that it works with all our supported formats.
Could you perhaps use only \n in your code for newlines?
Usually that can be done by changing your IDE settings to encode new lines as \n instead of \r\n.

Placeholders
Does POEditor support Placeholders for JSON file?
1 voteYou can add any placeholders you want to your strings. However, we will notify translators about the following, if they miss any in their translations: https://poeditor.com/kb/placeholder-validation

Export into custom JSON format file
Please find below a sample of i18n chrome standard JSON file
{
"key": {
"message": "translation",
"description": "Description of a message",
"placeholders": {
"ph_1": {
"content": "Actual string that's placed within a message.",
"example": "Example shown to a translator."
},
...
}
},
...
}Is there any possibility just with normal key(term) value(translation), be able to export into this format
1 voteThere isn’t a way to export in that format, but you can rebuild the file in any way you want using the API: https://poeditor.com/docs/api

"Pull requests" like contributions
Hi, is it possible to implement a workflow similar to "pull requests" like the ones in Github? what I mean is: we want to let anybody to contribute with our projects, but when a contributor edits an entry, it would not change the original translation but create a "draft", a "proposal", that needs to be approved before saved.
Is there any configuration / workflow similar to the one I'm describing?
Regards,
1 votePerhaps adding an extra proofreading step to your workflow could help: https://poeditor.com/kb/proofreading-translations
Instead of exporting all translations to GitHub, you could add export filters on your links with GitHub files, so that only the proofread strings are exported. You can find more info on how to set export filters in the section ‘Importing and exporting string’ of this article: https://poeditor.com/kb/localization-file-management-with-github-bitbucket-and-gitlab-integrations

Please Move Add Term To Top!
Hi. A very common workflow is to add a new term to a project. But right now you have to tap the Terms button and then scroll all the way to the bottom just to find the Add Term button. It is super annoying. Please add a second Add Term button to the top of the list. Thanks.

Preview before import
Can you add a preview page on import of the file where I can see the changed, new and deleted terms & translations before the actual import happens?

Un-Intuitive Interface
I just signed up and had issues finding "where" I can add a new term.
Up to the point where I thought you are not providing this feature!I was expecting to find it (first) ON TOP (second) of the list OF A LANGUAGE. It shouldn't matter which language list I am looking at right now. I want to add a term while I am there.
Going to my project overview and then to terms and then to scroll to the bottom to find that button? That's not really intuitive for a feature that is needed like right after you…

Formal & Informal translations option
Hi, I see some of the translators do a formal translations and some use an informal style. Would be great if instead of us having to specify in comments if we want a formal or informal translation for each translations, that POEditor would introduce a checkbox to specify the translation style for each term.
6 votesThank you for your suggestion.
If you would like to set a particular tone for a translation order sent to Gengo, please use the ‘Comment for translator’ form on the order, as described at point 2 in this article: https://poeditor.com/kb/how-to-get-human-translation-services
In case some strings in order should be treated as exceptions to these general instructions, note that you can also pass to translators what is written in the first comment of each of your strings, as well as in the Context attribute of each string.

JSON export changes indentation
I imported a JSON file from GitHub. When exporting it back to the repo, the indentation was changed from 2 spaces to 4 spaces. This setting should either be preserved, or configurable.
All other files in the repository are using 2-spaces indentation.
1 voteUnfortunately, there is no way to change the indentation size. Our export standard is with 4 whitespaces, which is the most common from what we’ve found after analyzing a ton of key-value JSON language files.
The only way to change the indentation would be using the API (https://poeditor.com/docs/api), by post-processing the JSON file after exporting it from POEditor.
