Zulu language does not appear in CiviCRM
Closed, ResolvedPublic1 Estimated Story Points

Description

While updating the Thank You and MonthlyConvert emails in Civi Templates, we wanted to "add Translation" of the Zulu copies.

However, Zulu (language code "zu") is not available (see screenshot below). Could it be added to Civi please?

It looks like the correct locale is zu_ZA - https://metacpan.org/dist/DateTime-Locale/view/lib/DateTime/Locale/zu_ZA.pod - we can add it but note that the fact it doesn't exist kinda means no-one will hear you .... thank

Eileenmcnaughton set the point value for this task to 1.

I just enabled it (& brought it into the sprint as I fixed it)

We actually have 80~ languages that are disabled

I don't know if they need revisiting ??

Thanks Eileen, I was able to add Thank you (one time and recurring) and Monthly convert emails as templates in Civi in Zulu! I had a look at the disabled languages and could not see any that, to the best of my knowledge, we will be working in in the near future.

@CDenes_WMF Could you have a look at the disabled from Civi languages list whenever you have time ?

Thanks again Eileen!

Reviewed and confirmed we don't need any other languages from the disabled list (pretty cool they have Sardinian tho!). Thanks both :)

@TomaszGorski @CDenes_WMF it's worth noting that if we do not have the language enabled then no contacts will 'get' that language on import (we will set language to English - which reflects what they will be emailed in) - so if we have people coming in from wikipedia pages with those languages we would ideally enable, in case we ever do want to translate them - although Sardinian might be a way off. I could get someone to whip you up a Maori translation though :-)

We definitely don't want to translate for those languages in the near future. Thank you for checking though!
