** What's New on Tatoeba? - Your biweekly recap #23 **

(What's New on Tatoeba will be published biweekly until the end of August.)


KODOEBA EVENT

※ Kodoeba ended last week, on Monday, August 10th.

※ There will be a blog post to summarize what was achieved during the event.


UPDATES

※ The menu dropdowns are no longer hidden behind the private message sidebar. Thanks to Ricardo14 for reporting the issue and Trang for fixing it.

※ Various regressions have been fixed. Thanks to CK, Ricardo14 and jpear1 for reporting them and to rumpelstilzchen for fixing them.

※ The search results page is now responsive and nicer to view on mobile. Thanks to Trang for implementing this and to CK, gillux and rumpelstilzchen for their helpful feedback.

※ The tooltips that display dates are now more accurate as they indicate the timezone (UTC). Thanks to AlanF_US for reporting the issue and to polkadotazn (one of our Kodoeba participants) for working on it.


ON THE WALL

※ MisterTrouser reminded us about a feature request that would allow specifying the number of words when searching for sentences: https://tatoeba.org/eng/wall/show_message/35723

※ CK announced that we have a new German voice: https://tatoeba.org/eng/wall/show_message/35770

※ mccarras asked if it's useful to fulfill vocabulary request by adding sentences that slightly differ from the request: https://tatoeba.org/eng/wall/show_message/35804

LANGUAGES

※ Tatoeba is supporting a new language: Plains Cree.

※ We have been discussing how to give more recognition to people who translate the website UI: https://github.com/Tatoeba/tatoeba2/issues/2481

As usual, we thank everyone who helped to translate the website, but perhaps in the future, we integrate something in Tatoeba to better acknowledge this work!

----------

If you'd like to help to the development of Tatoeba, report issues, or are just curious, have a look at the GitHub repository.

If you want to help us translate the website to your language, you can join us on Transifex: https://www.transifex.com/tatoe...ite/dashboard/ and check this article on the wiki https://en.wiki.tatoeba.org/art...e-translation.

If you're especially happy with one of the updates, don't hesitate to personally thank our developers :) They're working in the shadow but they'll be glad to hear your feedback.
