 Irresponsible changes to strings, A strings' name should follow changes to its meaning (1 Replies, Read 216036 times)

In the most recent update (v6.0.6), I've noticed changes from the use of the word "backup" to "template" in strings that are still named "backup_dir", "backup_db", "backup_file_empty", etc. in the create_template_lang.php file.

If a string is not referring to backups anymore, but to templates, why would it still be called "backup_dir"? The responsible thing is to create a new string called "template_dir" and optionally remove the old one. Otherwise, changes to translations are hard to track and update.

I run a script that compares the presence (or lack) of strings in the English language, compared to the language I use, so that I can add these strings manually every time there's a new Softaculous update. Should I now also somehow track changes between versions to check which strings were altered?

Is there anywhere I can find an exact changelog listing which strings were added, changed or removed for each version?

Hi,

The template feature is based on backups feature hence some variable names are common since it uses same code (some parts) to render the page.

If you would like to track changes with the variable key you can do that for separate files. Since this is a new file you can simply translate it fully and replace it.

If you want the changes for each version you can open a support ticket with us and our team will send you the changes list for every version.
