I want to translate Ignition project to Slovenian language. How can I translate project update available popup, which is shown, when you click the yellow bar at the top? I put english and slovenian text in the translator manager, but not all text are translated. What am I missing? ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/9/92c337f52061162e6b1734ef829f2acf12015fa7.PNG) ---

The translation manager is pretty literal in what it looks for, and the actual message is longer than what I see in your screenshot. Try translating `

There is a more recent version of this application available.


This application has been updated on the Gateway.

Click 'Update' to update this application.` instead of splitting it into different lines. (Keep the html tags in your translation.) I haven’t tested it, but looking at the code this should work. Let me know. One of the things I’ve suggested for 7.9 is a way for users to search for these “hidden” terms to add to translations. If you posted that on [ideas.inductiveautomation.com](http://ideas.inductiveautomation.com) and voted for it, it would be more likely to happen. 🙂 ---

@KathyApplebaum Thank you. It works. You’re right… how the heck can we know, how the string, which we want to translate, is created. As for the post on [ideas.inductiveautomation.com](http://ideas.inductiveautomation.com), I don’t have any votes left… ☹ Now, I have another popup, which I can’t translate: Screen Locked popup: [attachment=0]screen\_locked\_popup\_translation.PNG[/attachment] Here also the buttons won’t translate… ---

😊 Looks like the words on that screen are hardcoded. I’ll make a ticket – thanks for finding it! ---

The fix will be in the first beta of 7.7.7. When you upgrade, here are the phrases you’ll need to add to the global translation manager: - This screen has been locked by **%s** - Screen Locked - Password: - This screen has been locked by **user** - Unlock - Logout - Login failed. ---

Fixes in 7.7.x will regularly be pulled in to 7.8.x. Not sure if this will make it in to 7.8.1 or 7.8.2, but it will get there soon-ish. ---

We are now on 7.9 and this is still the same… ☹ I think translations need BIG revamp…
