Project news
💕 Special thanks to newcomers
Many people subscribe to the project(s) of their choice each month, but not so many start translating straight away, let alone become top translators! For that reason, we would like to thank the ones who rushed into the effort immediately! So lots of love to the dedicated Lessandro Kalmykoff, and Gabriel Schwardy.
A few stats
- 18 members were active on the project this month.
- A total of 21,300 words have been translated and 50,962 validated.
- All this in 16 different languages.
Thank you very much for your involvement!

Complete translations
Fully available languages
At the end of July, a month after the new strings were added to Crowdin, PrestaShop 1.7.8 was already fully available (= 100% translated and validated) in 9 languages. That’s great! Thank you for your involvement. 🎉
| Chinese traditional | English | Estonian | French | | Greek | Portuguese, Brazil | Spanish | Spanish, Mexico | | Swedish |
Thank you all for your contribution! And remember, in order to get back to a 100% completion rate, all the new 1.7.8 strings should be translated and validated… Your project needs you! 💪
Languages with the best evolution
The following languages had the best progress in July thanks to the translation community:
- Spanish, Mexico (+38% to reach 100% validated)
- Azerbaijani (+7% to reach 41% validated)
- Lithuanian (+4% to reach 99% validated)
Congratulations! And special thanks to Enrique García Cruz who worked a lot on the Spanish, Mexico project lately. The language is now completely translated and validated! 💪
A huge thank you to all the contributors!
Of course, this is highlighting the languages that made some progress with new translations; but it does not mean that the languages that are not mentioned here are not active. Indeed, some editing and rewriting could be going on, but the percentage of translation would not be modified (since the work happens on strings that are already translated). So let’s not forget about the work of other contributors! Thanks to you too!
Let’s keep in touch!
If you have not joined us on Crowdin yet, it is never too late! 😉
You can also join the #translation channel of the PrestaShop open source Slack. On this channel, I share information about the translation project. You will also be informed about the publication of the Crowdin monthly report. Of course, you will also be able to ask questions, suggest ideas, or get in touch with other translators.
