Re: [mv] Translation Question

["Gideon van Gelder" <gideon@swingmaster.nl>]

This translating of failure-messages seems to remain a problem...

Just find the text in the perl-modules and hard-edit them and
than upload and restart MV:done !!!
Why go through this hassle if you can just edit the error-message
on the spot. I've done it too and it works fine.

BTW: this is something I only came to figure out recently, which is
very nice:

do:

name=required fill out your name, donkey !

and edit the failure-perl-bit on the checkout page to return

You didn't fill out the form correctly:
    fill out your name, donkey !

I believe this is not in the docs, but very nice eventhough.

Bye,
