Role Assign-old helptext-bug

Created on 30 October 2019, about 5 years ago
Updated 20 March 2023, almost 2 years ago

I'm receiving nasty errors in the watchdog log because Drupal can't import bad translations. The latest one is for RoleAssign:
https://localize.drupal.org/translate/languages/de/translate?page=1&proj...

There's a long string containing 58 HTML errors according to https://validator.w3.org/check, like

<h2>Hintergrund</h2>Hintergrund</h2>
<Es ist fรผr Site-Administratoren mรถglich, die Benutzerverwaltung รผber die Berechtigung <code>administer users</code> zu delegieren.

These HTML errors are not in the original string.

Since D7 (in my case) does basic HTML checking and produces recurring error messages about broken texts, couldn't l.d.o do this checking as well, before it accepts those edits?

    Thanks to the release of version 10.x of the module, the bug is fixed at least for 10.x.

    Despite the hiding of the help text in the UI, an error is still seen when importing the detuschen translation when the version 9.x of the module is installed.

    This means that, for example, when installing Varbase 9, this error appears again and again, even though the developers have programmatically hidden the help text for 9.x.

    If anyone knows how to remove the Po file for version 9.x from the server and then recreate it without the string in question, that would be very helpful. I will do the devil to allow a translation of the help text for the version 9.x once again.

    Nevertheless such errors (in this case a '

    <!--break-->

    ' was inserted in the original string) are very annoying from the point of view of us translators, because we can't translate modules which are afflicted with this kind of error 100%.

    To prevent this in the future, Drupal now has the feature:

    https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/core%21modules%21locale%21locale.modul...

    with which programmers can avoid such errors in the future before providing a release. For the version 10.x of RoleAssign there is as of today again a properly translated help text from which the corresponding tag was removed by the developers. Many thanks for this.
