Re: new strings to translate

 

Hi guys,

I'm not in charge of translations so I'm not 100% sure but this could have
been caused by the recent Table of Contents overhaul - stuff has been
renamed/moved/changed all over the place, so that could have affected the
translations.

Josh will probably be able to clear this up some more.

Cheers
