Bugzilla – Bug 11219
Network settings sometimes only show string tokens

...instead of the actual string. I can't say when it happens and when not. It's ok during initial setup. NETWORK_SETUP_NETWORKING NETWORK_CONNECTION_TYPE_* NETWORK_FOUND_NETWORKS NETWORK_ETHERNET maybe others, too
I did see this using German or English
I'm going to remove those menus in the MP firmware.
These menus are removed in r4971.
Richard - this bug wasn't about the placeholders you put in. It's about the whole network settings menu (even its entry in the advanced settings) not using strings, but only tokens. I still see this in rev. 5000.
Created attachment 4997 [details] Missing translation This only seems to happen to strings in this very applet which aren't translated yet. Others show up fine.
The string parser was not falling back to EN if the strings were missing. The cases were it worked were due to the applet load order, not by design. Fixed in r5012.
