[Enhancement] Translation system

Lx

Michael, I learned that the core translation file is small and already done for a bunch of languages. Should it be expanded in the future, I’d be glad to contribute to the Hungarian translation. I could not figure out in the forum how to get enlisted for such voluntary work, that’s why I write in this post.
Cheers, György

@lx use github to fork the MM repo, then download your copy using git clone

change/add whatever files need changing
then use git status to see the changed/new files

git add those files
then use git commit -m " description" to save those files into the local git repo copy

then use git push to send them to your fork on github

then on github create a ‘pull request’ (to the dev branch) to tell Mich that you are offering changes

if he approves, he will merge your changes

i expect that you will not understand some of that… google is your friend, search out each step…

Sam, thanks for the instruction. You are right, I’m a total newbie here. But your sequence + google is good enough for a start. Cheers, György

Hi, I’ve just tried to create a new PR with a new translation for MM. I’ve followed your steps, and everything goes well, but the merge is blocked due to this message:

Enforce Changelog / check (pull_request)

Here is a link to my PR:

https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/pull/2491

I’m a noob on github. What it would be the next step?

Thanks in advance.
