Translation and Localisation
We are actively seeking help with translation of SiT into as many languages as possible. If you think you can help, please get in touch.
This table shows the current status of translation of 1784 strings from the svn trunk (unreleased 3.6x branch SiT!) with links to the source files so that you can update your language files if you need to. Our current development branch (3.90 / Git) has 1956 strings.
If translating both the 3.x branch and 4.x please take notice that these have different strings, and therefore it's not a good idea just to copy from one version to the other. A diff should be made instead. If you are in doubt, feel free to ask in the forum or on IRC.

How to Translate SiT
- (Optional) Download the latest en-GB English language file (see above)
- Preferred method: Go to Help->Translate and follow the instructions on-screen (Requires v3.31 or later) or Make a copy of the
en-GB.inc.phpfile and edit it in a text editor (Your text editor should support UTF-8 encoding) - v3.35 and later have context-helptips (little [?] links with popup help), these can be translated by copying the files in
/help/en-GBtohelp/xx-XX/(where xx-XX is your language code) and editing them to provide your local language translation - Your language file shouldn't contain any english language strings, unless the phrase is the same in your language as it is in the original english
- When you're done save the file(s) and submit/attach it to a bug report or email to Ivan Lucas (ivan[at]sitracker[dot]org) - if you plan to continue updating your translation you can join us and have svn commit access.
Incomplete or partial translations are just as welcome as full translations (every little helps!) and suggestions of improvements to existing translations are also welcome.
 A bug has been reported that affects this functionality: Translation page should be paginated

Translating Documentation
See Translate wiki
- We're now using this wiki as our main source of documentation
- Edit a page in this wiki called
Documentation/XXwhereXXis the first part of your language code, (e.g.ENfor english,FRfor French), (or click on a link in the language bar at the bottom of the page) you can create the page if it doesn't already exist - Any extra pages you create in your language should use
/XXas a page name suffix - Put the text "
[[Category:XX]]" (where, again,XXis the first part of your language code) at the bottom of your page, to add it to a category for your language - Add the template {{Languages}} to the bottom of your new page to add a language bar.
As a translator you may find this Glossary page helpful, it lists words that we use in SiT and what we mean by them.
Incomplete or partial translations are just as welcome as full translations (every little helps!) and suggestions of improvements to existing translations are also welcome.
