Are you referring to the contents of the page at /settings/help
itself?
Because, if so, I'd say it's a bug. However, at least in v28.0.1, I see it in the language of my currently logged in user.
Are you referring to the contents of the page at
/settings/help
itself?
Yes, exactly!
I forgot to mention that I'm on 27.1.5
.
In v27 we use embedded documentation rather than the online documentation and we load it immediately when clicking "Help" (defaulting to the User Manual but also offering links to the embedded Admin Manual in the left panel). I believe the inline docs only get distributed in English.
In v28 it's a little different because we created a dedicated Help page (which is fully translated) in #40784 then we provide links to the online documentation. We dropped the embedded docs being the default behavior.
And the online docs have the full language set. For the time being, at least in v28, it's now at least possible for the user to manually choose their preferred language (by clicking v: latest
in the lower left it pops up a menu with languages available for the online manual). That wasn't possible before due to the limited embedded docs.
Now that #40784 is done, we could also adjust the link generation (either in server
or in the documentation
go.php
) to push the user to the online documentation most appropriate for their active language.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When a user clicks in ‘Help’ under the Setting menu, he’s leaded to a page in English. No matter of what he's chosen before.
Describe the solution you'd like
The help link should respect the respective language of the current user.
Describe alternatives you've considered
If that's not possible, then the default language from the
config.php
should be taken.
