Title:
Add tool to customise language strings in admin section
Status in Mahara:
Confirmed
Bug description:
From the discussion in forum post
https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=8643&offset=0&limit=10
We could extend the language pack management section defined in bug
report https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/1884717
There could be a tool to manage custom language packs, for example for
Mahara sites that have these scenarios:
1. An organisation has specific requirements for the email messages
and notifications sent from their Mahara instance. Instead of using
the generic email or notification text, they would like to add some
information specific to their organisation, for the recipient to read
(e.g. pointing to their own manuals or support staff site). To this
end, they find the correct string identifier for these notifications
and modify the text accordingly for the language packs installed in
their Mahara instance.
2. A school in primary or secondary education wishes to use Mahara,
but feels the interface sounds too academic. They want to tone that
down to a more age appropriate level, by modifying some of the
language strings on instruction pages in their Mahara instance, so
their younger portfolio owners and group participants understand
what's expected of them.
for this we'd need to define:
- How are we actually supporting customised language packs in Mahara. For
example, do we allow a language pack to define a parent language to default to
in case the string is not defined?
- What actions do we want to provide
- If there are changes in language strings in core, then the admin of the
site will need to review the strings in the customised language pack. How are
we detecting this changes and what tools will we be offering to make the task
easier
- Do we allow other roles into this section or just the site admin?
