I18n

Good afternoon, please how to use i18n file .opt in OTRS 5.0.9

[reneeb]

You should rephrase your question. There is no .opt file. What do you want to achieve? Do you want to know how you can add new translations for your own OTRS instance? Do you want to help translate OTRS in a new language or improve existing translations?

To improve the translation for your own OTRS instance, you should create a custom translation file (an example is available at https://github.com/reneeb/otrs-QuickClo ... ckClose.pm).The name of that file has to start with the language code (in the example it is "de" for German) and then a custom name.

To help with translations, you should have a look at

Im sorry,

The question was how to use file ".po" located in the directory /opt/otrs/i18n/otrs

OTRS 5.0.9

[jojo]

the file is used by development to create translation (Perl) files. They are generated by the Transifex system...

[reneeb]

Those files are only needed for the work with transifex (for translators). In those .po files you can find the translatable strings and you can use several tools to provide a translation. I assume, xxx uses those files to generate the "Kernel/Language/*.pm" files. If you're "just" an OTRS administrator, those .po files are not relevant to you.

I thought that the file could work in the translation directly in OTRS...

thank you very much
