possible chinese translation bug?

KevinH · 06-30-2026, 09:25 AM

Hi All,

If anyone speaks Chinese or even better knows someone on the Transifex Chinese translation team, would you please take a look at this bug report and if you agree with it, notify someone on Transifex as to the issue.

https://github.com/Sigil-Ebook/Sigil/issues/872

We at Sigil completely depend on our Transifex translation people to handle these issues and for me to try to edit anything before pulling it into Sigil is a slippery slope that I do not want to start.

Furthermore, me editing anything in Chinese (and most other languages) would be the height of folly!

So if you can help get this info to the right people, please do.

From what I can tell such is indeed incorrect. I haven't used that dialog but is it that one can set 10 plugins to some buttons or something?

The main issue: "插件" seems to mean plugin so that you can understand. It is merely that 18 is appended to such rather than 8. Thus it is saying plugin 18 rather than plugin 8.
