SUGGESTION FOR THE TRANSLATION SERVICE
Hi all,
I want to email everyone here to discuss an idea that I have for the Apache translate Pootle service website. Firstly, for those of you who have translated to any language of your preference using this service, you may or may not know what I am about to say.
Basically, when there is a suggestion on a word that is untranslated, or is translated and perhaps “needs work”, if I accept or reject the last suggestion, the webpage will automatically skip to the next word, even if the current word has not been translated. This is quite annoying, as I do not want it to skip to the next word, and then I have to navigate back to the word I was on, in order to finish, either fixing up an error/s, or translating the word since it is incomplete. Please, if the relevant individual/s can get back to me, so I can discuss with you in further details (if required), on how the system should respond in the case of a user accepting/rejecting suggestions once there is no more suggestions left for the current word.
Thanks again everyone.
Kind regards,
Ahmad A

Based on the comment I got on the link: https://github.com/translate/pootle/issues/6800 ..... it is clear that with the current Pootle version implemented on OpenOffice being outdated in comparison to the latest one, these issues will be closed by the Pootle team, since the latest version Pootle has configured fixes for this issue and many other issues. This further reinforces and fuels the need for an upgrade of the current Pootle version on OpenOffice.

Our website is a standard installation of Pootle. Pootle is free and
open-source, but it is not managed by the Apache Software Foundation.
This means that for Pootle bugs (or enhancements like this one) you will
have to go to the Pootle website and open issues there. From time to
time we will update our installation of Pootle and thus get the new
features/bugfixes.
Of course, it is still useful and good if, after posting to the Pootle
website, you send a link here so that we can follow the issue.
Regards,
Andrea.

The Pootle website is http://pootle.translatehouse.org/
The issue queue is here:
https://github.com/translate/pootle/issues
The latter is the place where one can report Pootle bugs or suggest
enhancements. You will need a (free) Github account for that.
Regards,
Andrea.

Hi Andrea and all,
I know I am emailing quite a lot and hope it is not an issue to you and everyone else on this mailing list. I understand now about the suggestion I offered, but how do I actually suggest on the Pootle website? Can you offer me some guidance to this, and provide me a link too, to make it a little easier to understand this process. Thanks again, and I hope to hear from you soon.
Kind regards,
Ahmad A
