[missing feature] Only one mother tounge

Open guysoft opened this issue 5 years ago • 5 comments

Hey, I am bilingual, I know both English and Hebrew and they are both my mother tongue. However BeWelcome only lets you input one mother tongue on signup. Perhaps adding a message "you can add more later" might help.

Hey,

We can either update the pop out help text or add a help text directly below. I feel the help text would be the better option.

So I tried grepping for the current text in the signup to send a PR, but I could not find it

Please select a mother tongue so that people know which language to use when contacting you. If there is a site translation for your mother tongue it will also be your preferred language

Translations are stored in the database so aren't part of the code.

To change this you would need to be part of the translators community on the site (or I do it if you give me a text suggestion).

Translations are stored in the database so aren't part of the code.

Usually there is a DB initialization file in repo.

@rafalkrupinski While this is off topic here, there is a regular dump of the languages and words tables which is used when you do a make install to initialize the docker containers.
