Editing rights on Pootle

Hi all,

I'm just wondering how one acquires editing rights on the staging Pootle
server that's been setup. I've signed up, confirmed and activated my
account, but although I can see the webform view of the words and
apparently change/correct them, when I click on next, or go elsewhere,
my changes do not seem to have been registered.

I was looking at the terminology po file in the French section and the
German equivalent (entitled "essentials.po").

An example in the terminology files :

"Adjust" in the French po file currently reads as "sikdisa", which is
obviously incorrect. I tried entering "Ajuster" and then clicking on the
move to next word arrow, but my change wasn't registered.

"remote" in the German po file currently reads as "CDDB server", which
is also incorrect. I tried entering the word "entfernt", clicked on the
move to next word arrow, and then noticed that my change wasn't registered.

Hints or suggestions welcome.

I guess you should click on the Submit button instead of the
Next/Previous arrows. Does that help?

Hi Modestas,

I guess you should click on the Submit button instead of the
Next/Previous arrows. Does that help?

Thanks for the hint, usually that is precisely the kind of button I
would have looked for in the first place, but unfortunately I don't have
one on the page.

Somehow I didn't realize at first that you're a newly registered user
without any rights in any project. Only this „next arrow" in your mail
caught my eye. Of course, you should follow Andre's advice :slight_smile:
