Do you have an idea how to do this? The "full description" is just a text file with three paragraphs: and Transifex seems to take one paragraph as one string. |

openHAB-Android has also a file with F-Droid presentation — https://github.com/openhab/openhab-android/blob/main/assets/store_descriptions/en-US/strings.xml . In Crowdin this is presented as a single file. Once a sentence is selected on the right, it is shown on the left for translation. |

The transifex translation under “Meta data full description” shows three strings:
I suggest displaying these three strings as a single multi-line string. Currently it is not very obvious, how are the sentences connected. In particular
it
- depending on if it relates to an application or a programme,it
is supposed to be translated asit
orshe
.For instance, initially I translated
DAVx⁵ is app
asDAVx⁵ is program
(ling. female) andit
asshe
. Later an expert changed the translation ofapp
toapplication
. Thenit
refers toapplication
and is supposed to be translated asit
(masculine noun). Butshe
was left unchanged.I suggest replacing
the Web site
on the third string with a hyperlink to the website. The display text could stay the same, by utilizing some unknown to me markup, or it could display the URL instead.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
