Text files#

New in version 4.6.

The translatable content is extracted from the plain text files and offered for the translation. Each paragraph is translated as a separate string.

There are several flavors of this format:

  • Plain text file

  • DokuWiki text file

  • MediaWiki text file

  • Markdown files

Note

Unlike most other formats, the changes in the translation files will not be imported to Weblate because it can not be done reliably. The source of truth for the translations is Weblate not the translated file.
