Re: Grammar Errors
When the gallery limit has been reached, you get this message.
That should be:

The size of all the pictures is higher than the allowed limit. You cannot send more.

Re: Grammar Errors
When writing a topic/PM with no title, this error message comes up.
"Before you can post" can be misunderstood. I think this should be something more like:
Not sure if "specify" is the best, but I guess it's better than "write".
You must specify a subject before you can post.

Mario, whats the chances you can pass up a URL spelling mistake that no-one notices?
I'm certain you wouldn't be able to change a URL directly
Show me please.
Everything else has been corrected. Thanks again!

Re: Grammar Errors
Mario sure, I pointed it out to Typlo too, but he didnt do anything
The one I noted was the profile editing, it was https://help.forumotion.com/profil?mode=editprofil but now has an 'e' , however, when editing the rest of the profile, one or 2 of the "profile" is missing an 'e' at the end (this is on all forums)
Also on https://ipgetinfo.com/speed.php?lang=en
they have "connexion" it should be connection
Speed used to be connection a few months back haha.
Also, the techs need to improve the accuracy of the IP location, im more then 10 hrs drive away from where it says I am lol

Re: Grammar Errors
With the chatbox feature..
it should be:
I changed it slightly, but it'll definitely make sense.
You can see here the list of the users banned from the ChatBox. You can also unban these members from this interface. The ban of a chatbox user is done via the command /ban username in the Chatbox. The command /unban username will unban the user via the Chatbox.

The Facebook invite example message:

Re: Grammar Errors
forum url/faq?mode=bbcode
There are lots of problems here. I'll try to get most of them:
1. Header "Insert medias in the messages" should be "Insert media into messages"
2. Header "Message scrolling" should be "Scrolling text"
3. Header "Frames Creation" should be "Tables"
4. Content of "Frames creation" should say:
Create a table in a message:
The BBCode to place a table in a message is identical to the tags used in HTML. To create a table, you need to start by creating a tag 'table' then insert a 'tr' row. This row can contain one or several cells 'td', and a table can contain several 'tr' rows.
For example, to create two rows and three columns in a table, type the following:
Result:
You can also add styles to the BBcode 'table'. These are identical to those used for HTML. You can for an exemple add a border to the table above thanks to the 'border' attribute.
Result:
Other attributes are available: cellspacing, cellpadding, width, etc.
Tables need to be used with caution, please pay attention to the tag opening and closure. If an opening or closure error is made, you may not obtain the effect that you want.
I might find more problems later.

Re: Grammar Errors
Oh, I found another. After saving an announcement in the admin panel, it says this:
The announcement has been correctly saved.
Should be:
The announcement has been successfully saved.
I'm one minute off from 24 hours.

Re: Grammar Errors
From the FAQ: https://help.forumotion.com/faq
User Preferences and settings > My language is not in the list!
We can't install language packs on forumotion, this was left over from the original phpBB FAQ. This must be deleted (or modified somehow).
Also from the FAQ the last chapter is "phpBB 2 Issues", it is like this on every version. My sugestion is to change it to Forumotion or Forum Issues
The quick login feature:
The text is just too long, why can't it be short like the french version ?
My suggestion: Log on automatically
One last thing, and I think you will all agree with me here.. the "You have no new messages" from the menu, also too long.. simple solution: Private Messages
User Preferences and settings > My language is not in the list!
The most likely reasons for this are either the administrator did not install your language or someone has not translated this board into your language. Try asking the board administrator if they can install the language pack you need or if it does not exist, please feel free to create a new translation. More information can be found at the phpBB Group website (see link at bottom of pages)

Re: Grammar Errors
When sending a new visitor message it says...
It should be:
Not to forget, it should notify how many messages are sent.
Send a new message on [USERNAME] profile
It should be:
Send a new message on [USERNAME]'s profile

Re: Grammar Errors
What MrMario meant is that he checks it every time there's a reply, and he feeds the information up and that then requires someone "higher up", aka The Godfather, to Approve of the change.
