Translation - how is the caching handled? By page or by topic/comment?

Hey there

Translations are stored in tables, not cached per se.

If you have data explorer, you may use a query like such to view the stored translations (there are topic_localizations, post_localizations, category_localizations, replace accordingly).

select * from topic_localizations
limit 10

Discourse uses terms like topics, posts, and such (this might be useful). A topic has a title and has posts. This reply itself is a post. We do not store just one translation per full topic. So for example in this topic we have:

  1. topic translation for the topic title
  2. post translation for your post above
  3. post translation for my post now
  4. (post translation for any subsequent post)

Hope this helps.
