Occupancy calendar the days (abbreviations) are displayed incorrectly

The days should be displayed in German as “Mo, Di, Mi, Do, Fr, Sa, So” - it is also wrong in other languages.

The booking calendar comes from smoobu.com and is integrated via script.
Thanks for checking and best regards Mathias

Hi there @Mathias :wave:

I see the issues, and I am so sorry about it!

Your request is with our devs now. Once any news comes up, I’ll update you here right away :slightly_smiling_face:

Would it be possible to exclude certain texts or scripts from the translation with a code? The script of the occupancy clone would translate independently (Geolocation is recognized)

I already have another case: a chalet name (headline) which should only be shown in German - now this is also translated.

Hi @Mathias, that’s a very nice idea, but I’m afraid we cannot make it via the script :disappointed:

However, I’ve already created such a feature request in our wishlist, feel free to cast your vote to track the updates: Exclude certain texts or scripts from the translation :raised_hands:t2:

Thanks for the feedback - an exclusion would be very important… I think I’m not the only one. Thank you and best regards Mathias

Yes, I really love your idea! Let’s see what other users think about this suggestion :slight_smile:

Hi @Mathias, thank you for your patience!

I’ve just got a reply from our developers, and, unfortunately, this is the way our widget currently works. The thing is, that it’s now based on the Google Translate, and this is the exact result we get from the Google Translate directly.

I agree that the translation could use some improvement, and we already have a couple of suggestions in our Wishlist:

Hopefully, we’ll be able to improve the translation quality in the future :raised_hands:t2:

Thank you Helga for the answer.
I wanted to let you know that this problem of overstating the calendar days also causes problems with calendars from other manufacturers: ‘Hostaway’ - I hope there will be a solution soon.

Thank you for your understanding, Mathias!

I, however, didn’t quite get your idea about the “problem of overstating the calendar days” — could you please elaborate? Any details or a screenshot would be really appreciated!

Sorry Helga

I meant the name of the weekdays (from an occupancy calendar widget) which is also translated incorrectly by a software manufacturer other than smoobu.

Hi there @Mathias :wave:

Please let me step in for Helga.

We’ve got what you mean, but since our app relies on Google Translate, it translates the website’s content regardless of the specific software used.

We agree that the translation might need some enhancement, and we’ll keep you informed about any changes in the Wishlist threads Helga shared above :slightly_smiling_face:
