Hi,
I have an idea for the current online help redirection for locales
other than the ones in the current help
site:https://help.libreoffice.org/Main_Page
The current situation for the users(except the ones in helpwiki) makes
no sense, as it redirects directly to English content, and it does not
help to you, as you are probably not an English speaking person.
I am usimg LibreOffice in Turkish and this page makes no sense for me:
https://help.libreoffice.org/swriter/.uno:HelpIndex?Language=tr&System=UNIX&Version=3.6#bm_id3149178
Do you see any usefull information to get help? Or icon recognizing
for kids? Makes any sense for you, if you are a non-english spreaker?
(Also i dont think this welcome page helps to English speakers too; it
will be better that it has only says, welcome to our help content,
please use the search bar or here is a simple navigation tree for
you--which should be the Component and Component main index in embed
help-- What is help?)
Most locales have help packages, and lots of users are not aware to
get them. Common behaviour is to download only installer, also there
are tons of download sites which provide only the multilanguage
installer, not the helppack.
When you click to LibreOffice Help or F1, a dialog might appear and
ask the user to install the help content:
