Email notifications - Language and punctuation bug

hybrid · February 2, 2015 at 10:34 AM

I just got an email notification with a quote, seems part is in German.

Also some quote mark punctuation seems messed up.

Code

Zitat von Hybrid: „Strange, shows up when searching wcf.user.birthday.age but not "age"




Thanks tho, all good now :)“
Hm. I tried to find it via "age" but I didn't find these entries, too.




I searched for this via "German" before, hehe. :)




But it's good that it's working now. ^^

So ...
"Zitat von Hybrid" means "Quotation from Hybrid".

„ -> beginning of the quotation

“ -> ending of the quotation

And this...

... is my answer.

Or did I misunderstand your problem? :o

It's a bug, I have language set as English, so I dont need to see any German.

"Zitat von Hybrid" should be in English in this email.

Also “xyz“ are quote marks. Not „xyz“ in my opinion.

Quote from Hybrid

Also “xyz“ are quote marks. Not „xyz“ in my opinion.

This is due to the german language variable being used there, in german proper quote marks are „...“.

I think I already saw this reported somewhere. The error happens because mails were send with the language of the author, not the language of the receiver. You are absolutely right, this should be corrected.
