XMLWordPrintable

    • MOODLE_31_STABLE
    • MOODLE_30_STABLE, MOODLE_31_STABLE
    • Hide

      With any developer mode stuff turned off:

      1. Download a language pack (you can do it through moodle's UI if you'd like)
      2. Find a string you know the display location of and modify it
      3. Purge caches and browse to the page where the string is displayed
      4. Confirm it is the modified version
      5. Edit the file [yourmoodledatadir]/lang/[langcode]/[langcode].md5 - just modify a few letters/numbers
      6. Run: php admin/tool/task/cli/schedule_task.php --execute=\\tool_langimport\\task
        update_langpacks_task         from the command line
      7. Refresh the page and verify that the string has reverted back to what it looked like before you modified it

      Looks like the scheduled task update_langpacks_task does not purge language cache.
      Because of this, changes in updated language packs are not visible.

      Steps
      1. Change string in official language pack(not english)
      2. Run php schedule_task.php --execute=\\tool_langimport\\task
      update_langpacks_task
      3. Verify that new language pack was downloaded and the translated string is present
      4. Translated string is not visible in moodle, old value is presented
      5. Run php admin/cli/purge_caches.php
      6. New value of the string is presented in the moodle.
