Missing localisable strings. How to contribute ?

Hello

I am running a Vanilla 2.0.18.1 forum in french. I updated the locale for translatable but missing phrases.

Now I discover that some strings which appear in the UI cannot be translated, mostly message inserted into the database for activities. I haven't run full check yet.

I can update the source code files and add the T() calls, but this work would be lost on every update and only benefit my forum.

I read the doc, installed Git and forked on Github.

My question is : at which stage should I insert my modifcations ?

  1. check out the 2.0.18 branch
  2. check out the 2.0.18.1 tag and branch from there
  3. only in the master branch, but how do I use my updates on my site ?

    There is a way to translate activity headlines. If you download the baseline locale you'll see them there. If you want to add the translations to the locale I'd really appreciate it. Just email the new locale to todd@vanillaforums.com and I'll upload it to the addons site.
