Bug Description
Using Blake’s test server localized to Czech (https:/
To reproduce:
Step 1: Go to https:/
Step 2: Change the browser URL to https:/
Step 3: Register your workstation.
Step 4: Log in again using your workstation.
Step 5: Check the splash screen.
Step 6: Go to the patron search screen (https:/
Step 7: Go to the catalog search screen (https:/
Findings:
Step 1: The OPAC interface is in Czech.
Step 2: The staff client interface (the login screen) is partly in English, partly in Czech. Search in the menu is translated; also Username and Password are in Czech and Čeština shows up as a selected language in the top right corner of the screen. All the other strings keep being in English.
Step 3: The staff client interface (for registering a workstation) is in Czech but the home icon is replaced by the letter ů (the last letter from Domů, a Czech translation of Home) and two of the top-level main menu items (Search and Cataloging in English) do not have an appropriate label; instead, they are only reprensented by arrows pointing down.
Step 4: The login screen is entirely in Czech, with the home icon and the two menu item labels missing.
Step 5: The splash screen is entirely in Czech, with the home icon and the two menu item labels missing again. The splash screen itself only shows the Evergreen logo, two (left and right) empty boxes (rectangles) with a pale green top and the middle box contains only a search box and a very basic search button (with no label).
Step 6: The staff client interface for patron search is mostly in English, e.g., in the main menu only Search (Hledat in Czech) is in Czech; all the other top-level menu items are in English. The main part of the page shows some strings in Czech and some in English. This page has "eg", not "eg2" in the path.
Step 7: The staff client interface for catalog search is in Czech, including the menu (but again, with the missing home item and the two missing menu item labels). This page has "eg2" in the path.
This behavior prevents us from upgrading as most of the Czech librarians working with Evergreen are not fluent in English.
There has already been a discussion on the same topic in the Evergreen-general mailing list: http://
