Sounds silly, but I've tried hard ;) I am not able to translate the string "email this page" using the locale admin string functions. Found a German thread about this, too (http://www.drupalcenter.de/node/1166) - they say it doesn't work for them either. Is this a known problem?

Thanks,
Stephan

I concur, but for the 4.6 version.

I have the same problem on the most recent production version (5.x-1.12). It is very annoying and therefore I will not be able to use this module for a French site even if I contributed to continue the translation of this module. It seems to be the same for "Forward this page"

Please help (workaround, ...)

I've posted a solution for this problem in the support request issue. I don't think the issue is fixed, though, because there should be a simpler way to configure the «Email this page» link without going trough the translation files.

The solution didn't work for me. I can change the link title through the module file, but not to a different language. The problem persists and I cannot use this nice module

Does the string not show up in the translate strings interface? I'm not sure I understand what's actually causing the problem here. Also, can someone please translate the solution that was posted on the German forum?

I have some kind of a solution now. the string shows up in the translate strings interface. but if i try to translate 'email this page', it will not work, because the page is a variable in that phrase(!type). Instead, i translate only the 'Email this' phrase, through that interface, and it works (i omit the !type from the translation. i don't need to translate that).

Hmmm... That's certainly interesting. Does this solution work for everyone else? I will try to get to the bottom of the untranslatable !type variable, but that seems like a good workaround to me. I presume 'page' would be translatable by itself too.

Clearly not critical if no one is even replying in two weeks, setting to normal.
