Hello all,

Here is a new bug i just found : when asked for a sentence langage (when not detected automatically), then confirm langage, the main page won't update and keep displaying an unknown langage.

{{vm.hiddenReplies[19] ? 'expand_more' : 'expand_less'}} hide replies show replies

It's not really a bug, although I understand it can be confusing... I guess we'll have to rethink the display of the latest contributions.

The thing is, what we display in the "latest contributions" is actually the logs. When you add a sentence, it also adds an entry in the logs, with the text of the sentence and the language that has been detected at the moment you have added it.

And since logs entries are not supposed to be modified, well, they are not updated if you update the language of the sentence. (We don't log language modifications)

It's a bit annoying now because Google has changed their language detection algorithm and a lot of sentences end up with an unknown language :'(

Anyway this weekend the whole team is going to gather and work on Tatoeba, and we're going to introduce the possibility to set the language of the sentence manually (instead of always having it auto-detected).
