** Tatoeba Day #22 **
Tatoeba Day starts now and as usual will end in 24 hours!
Tatoeba Day is an event where you can get involved a little bit (or a lot) more than you usually would, to help make Tatoeba more awesome. You can find more details about it here:
http://en.wiki.tatoeba.org/arti...ow/tatoeba-day
In addition to the regular Tatoeba Day activities, I'd like to bring up again the topic of having a Tatoeba coding event. If that's an idea you're interested in (even if you won't be coding yourself), please refer to this thread and share your thoughts over there:

Happy Tatoeba Day!
The dev website has been updated with a beginning of implementation for this issue:
Title: offer ability to mark a list inactive
URL: https://github.com/Tatoeba/tatoeba2/issues/654
If you have a moment, please go test it on https://dev.tatoeba.org and give us your feedback.
Thanks!
The list inactivation feature works fine. I'm looking forward to being able to use it from the main website. Thanks for taking care of it, Zach and Trang!
It's now available on the main website :)
I'm very glad to see that. However, as I mentioned on GitHub, this makes the need for an option to hide collaborative lists more obvious. I marked about two dozen of my lists inactive because I don't want to see them as options when I click the list icon above a sentence. But now collaborative lists take up all the space on the screen that I freed up. This is not such a problem on my Windows monitor, but it is on my Android tablet.
** Mobile friendly UI **
I've updated the dev website to include a beginning of implementation to make Tatoeba user interface mobile-friendly. The new UI has to be enabled via the Settings: "Activate new user interface".
Don't expect too much at this stage though, this option will not make Tatoeba suddenly look good on mobile devices. Re-designing Tatoeba's UI is going to be a very big project that will maybe take a whole year, maybe more. But this is a start :)
The parts of the UI that are currently affected when you activate the new UI is:
1) the font
2) the page to add new sentences ("Contribute" > "Add sentences")
If you're interested, then please go try it out on the dev website (https://dev.tatoeba.org/eng/), and try it with all sorts of browsers and devices! Let me know if it doesn't work on a particular browser or device. Again, it will NOT look good on mobile devices, but right now this is not about making it pretty, it's about making sure that it works.
Thanks!
Well, it's better than nothing. What framework are you using?
Angular Material: https://material.angularjs.org/latest/
The "Contribute > Add sentences" page is messed up when I enable "Use the new interface" on Firefox on Windows 7. Here's what I see, verbatim:
Add a sentence
{{ '{{' }}language.name}} No results for {{ '{{' }}ctrl.searchText}}.
I also use Firefox on Windows 7, this is how I see it: http://prntscr.com/b8e97q
Do you have any userscript enabled that could affect the display?
No, I don't have any userscript enabled. I sent you an e-mail with screenshots of the way it looks in Firefox and Chrome on my machine.
I figured out why. It was a problem with not using HTTPS for the new javascript links. I was actually viewing the dev website from http://dev.tatoeba.org instead of https.
I think now you should be able to see it properly.
I can confirm that also on Firefox under Ubuntu 16.04
The new layout seems pretty messed up on my Asus tablet using Chrome. This is how the homepage looks like: http://i66.tinypic.com/123r6kk.jpg
Yes that's to be expected. For now only test the "Add sentences" page, see if you can add sentence and translate your new sentences right away, or favorite them, etc.
The general layout will be messed up on mobiles and tablets because that part has not been reworked yet.
Ok, then. I tried all the features and everything seems to be working
Tatoeba Day is now over :)
Next Tatoeba Day is scheduled for June 5th.
