Sometimes something should be improved on our website. This page is intended to collect the right procedure.

Adding or Changing Text

If you add or change text, keep in mind Gnucash and its website are multilingual. If you - like me and most other people - are not firm in all languages, you should ask the translators, to help you keeping the translations up to date.

After you finished editing the english text, you should prepare the translation by

  1. creating a new .pot file
    make pot
  2. msgmerge all existing .po files
    make msgmerge
  3. send a short mail to gnucash-devel about "Translators: Website changed ..."
    feel free to give them some clues, what changed like
    "complete new download page" or
    "fixed 42 typos in the english text".
  4. As patches with reworked .po files arrive,
    1. apply them and
    2. make the .mo files, e.g. with
      make mos

Further details can be found on the Translation page.

Thanks for your time and work!
