Changing the language of a Discourse instance after initial install

The discussion revolves around changing the language of a pro-hosted Discourse instance from English to French. bedhed wants to translate the text content and email templates, but they are not automatically translated based on the user’s language.

bedhed asks if there’s a better way to translate the content than copying from the i18n source and pasting into the Discourse admin. zogstrip confirms that there isn’t a better way and notes that some translations, such as system_messages.usage_tips.text_body_template, are not available in French.

bedhed decides to translate the missing content and shares a link to the translation platform.

I’m on a pro hosted instance and it was initially installed in English. Although the interface language setting works great (and the default is to French), the text content & email templates are in English. As far as I know these are not translated depending on the user lang. So I’d like to switch them to French.

  • Is there a better way than CTRL-C from the i18n source to my discourse admin ?
  • If no, I cannot to find system_messages.usage_tips.text_body_template in French anywhere, does it mean it does not exist ?

Thanks for your help !

Unfortunately no.

Seems like it hasn’t been translated yet :frowning:
