"Prev" and "Next" page navigation button text #2162

Open allanaaa opened 7 months ago

allanaaa commented 7 months ago

Can we offer a way to modify the text on the "Prev" and "Next" buttons?

If not, can we lengthen those entries to "Previous Page" and "Next Page" to match the text in Freedom? (Freedom also has arrows, "< Previous page" and "Next page >" but those aren't necessary IMO.

These are translateable strings, right?

Calling this post-4.1 also.

They are translatable. Which is both a potential "solution" for people and a minor push against changing them since it affects the available translations.

allanaaa commented 6 months ago

I think they have the same general meaning, so the translations won't be horribly out of date until they get fixed. Either way, the translations will mismatch either Freedom or the rest of the sites.

zerocrates commented 6 months ago

It's not that they'd be out of date, it's that changing the source text invalidates the translations, so they won't be translated until the translators for the various languages update things.

Is it that "Prev" is unnecessarily truncated? We have "Previous" as an existing translatable string that we could use in place of "Prev" without introducing new translatable strings.
