First translation of a phrase

[Old Nick]

Affected version

2.3 RC 2

Step to reproduce:

• You translate a phrase for the very first time then you save it
• You immediately click on the Edit button

Result: The editable field displays the original phrase.
This phenomenon does not occur if the phrase has been edited before (frame with a red border)

The specific steps here do not line up with how things actually work, but I think I roughly understand what might be going on.

If at any point you use the back button in your browser to go back to the index, you will be getting a cached copy of the page. The cached copy of the page will contain a link to modify the phrase in the parent language, rather than the new phrase you just created.

It's a little confusing but for various technical reasons that behaviour is correct.

To avoid this, you'll most likely be wanting to use "Save and Exit" rather than navigating with the back button.

I don't use my browser's back button at all and there is no "Save and Exit" in this case.
I think I expressed myself poorly, and perhaps pictures will illustrate my point better.

Step 1


Step 2 : i translate the phrase


Step 3 : I save it


Step 4 : i click the Edit button


My translation is not saved.

Sorry my bad, you're using the translation system.
