Should we add Mongolian to Pootle to enable translation?

We could try to import some strings from our source:

causing a short. Could just picture the glee of those people as 
youngsters as they attached the specimen* and pages and pages about 
its life cycle, etc. to the hated "problem report" they were required 
to submit for every "down" as a sort of protest. So naturally, the 
next time they came over with a report on a down the response was "OK, 
what kind of a bug was it this time".

"apparent inconsistency on the mod control panel" no longer exists

Thank you for all the work you have put into this. I would be willing to help 
out as an admin for the EN forum.

Maintenance on the Forums is completed!

The Forums are now at phpBB 3.3.7 which was released March 17, 2023. The prior 
version was 3.0.9 released July 10, 2011.

Very, very happy. Future updates should be much easier. I will follow up with 
the Forum sysadmins on these issues:

1. The Italian Forum has a weird display issues. I think that a post will need 
to be regenerated.
2. We need to find forum administrators to replace imacat for each forum.
3. I will need to document the process, customizations and migration steps.

But I’ll need a few days away.

Hi all,

Apache OpenOffice has already been available in the new Microsoft Store

With the latest App update, the new store is also coming to Windows 10.

Users can now install the latest OpenOffice version with a single click!

The Store Listings are localized in English, German, Italian, Polish 
and Portuguese.
Feel free to contact me if you want to add more languages or if you

Re: [DISCUSS] 4.1.10 Security Warning (resolved fixed BZ Issue 128451)

[David Robley]

The error message reported was
"This hyperlink is going to open “.uno:Reload”. Do you want to proceed?"

Which seems a little uninformative, or cryptic to the casual user.

Hi all,

In today's post on English forum: "Hyperlink Warning Message"  [1]
a _question_ was asked about the possibility of turning off the security
message
"This hyperlink is going to open (...) Do you want to proceed?"

This is the kind of _question_ one would expect from users.

So I have a few questions:

- is / will ever be there a way to switch off this message? (at one's own
risk...)
- is there a need to amend the 4.1.10 Release Notes?
   (maybe additional information e.g. in the "Security" section)
- should contextual Help topic "Security Warning" be amended?
   (it deals with macro security)

Good afternoon:

I have an issue that I hope you can help me with. It is as follows:

1) I am operating on *Windows 10*. I only use *Open Office 4.1.5*. My
computer is a home computer (Lenovo). I do not have MS Office and have for
several years happily used only Open Office for all my document preparation
needs.

2) When I *receive* colour documents I am able to print them in colour. I
am also able to print pictures in colour.

3) However, when I attempt to print* colour *documents that *I create
*utilizing
Open Office 4.1.5 they will only print in black and white even though I
instruct the printer to print the document in colour.

My printer is  *EPSON ET-2720* (Driver type: Type 3 - User Mode; Driver
version: 2.60.1.0) . I contacted Epson technical support and after running
a series of tests they advised me that the problem does not rest with my
Epson printer but must be a glitch in the Open Office programme and
suggested that I contact Open Office to have it resolved. Hence, I am
writing to you.

I am not very computer savvy and so I hope that you can help me to resolve
this issue as I am at a total loss. Many thanks.

Warm regards,

Michael

"locate hunspell" in a terminal shows its locations. Can you confirm,

Thank you for your reply: responses inline below.

I am not sure about the issue you are facing.

Have you Java installed?
Yes - but I hadn't added it to AOO; I did that in the working version, 
then uninstalled again, completely wiping anything under 
/opt/openoffice4 and re-installed. Now I get a different dialog box error:

The application cannot be started.
loading component library failed: 
file:///opt/openoffice4/program/../program/expwrap.uno.so

How did you delete the profile?

Simply by renaming ~/.openoffice/4/user

If the base directory still exist it might be problematic. I am not sure.
As I mentioned above, the base directory /opt/openoffice4 was empty. I 
failed to mention that I use the Slackware package to remove the old 
version before installing the new.

Re: APACHE OPEN OFFICE COMPATIBILITY ISSUE WITH MOJAVE?

Don't believe everything you read on the internet. AOO seems to work

However, if you choose to innstall AOO, please make sure you read the

Probably a Windows update has changed the file associations for those

associations back to OpenOffice.

We do get occasional problems on the EN forum where a stray trailing non 
printing character causes unexpected problems with some formulae. I 
don't know how much of an issue it would be to add this, but if it is 
comparatively simple I'd support it; as I suspect would a few others who 
spend time on the forum.

As an aside, would it be possible to have the search default to Display
