Make sure we can and these are translated properly:

Authorize/Delete/Notifications

Assigning to Milos. You have admin access to the app so you should be able to fill the settings we need for this. Let me know if you need any help.

Also note that the mentioned notifications aren't being added in this version of the site, so this mainly covers the description shown during app authorization and in the various places the app is shown (like the app center, for example).

Taking this back myself. I added in the translated strings, but for some reason the auth dialog isn't picking all of them up. Will investigate.

Comment 3

[Osmose [:osmose, :mkelly]]

My google-fu is failing me here. I cannot find any information on how to localize the specific parts of the authentication dialog that aren't being localized. The app name is localized, but the tagline and app description aren't, and there doesn't appear to be a way to blank them out or localize them. 

The only answer I could find was a claim that those parts of the auth dialog are not localizable yet and it was suggested to just make a separate app for each locale (no).

chelsea: It's your call. Should we block the release and keep digging on this, or assign to release 2 and ask Facebook about this?

I think I have this working, please see screenshot for the auth dialog to confirm we are talking about the same thing.

The authentication dialog language (from what i can tell) is controlled by the users facebook language setting not locale. To see the translated auth dialog you can change the language in your facebook settings.

Ben,

I fixed this just after Michael's comment 3. It looks like a non-admin added those translations, so they appeared as suggestions in advanced localization screen. I approved them all, and they should all be working. Note that some locales don't have translation for tagline, though.

Yeah, I thought Milos was going to update the bug, I probably should have myself since he had to pack. :P

Milos was able to better navigate the pit of despair that is Facebook's UI and activate the strings. /me rages for a few minutes on how much he hates Facebook's app editor UI

Marking as resolved! :D
