Hi,

I have a translation in the PO file that uses this (").
But in the email I got (;quot&) instead of (")

Example:
דוא;quot&ל
Correct way should be:
דוא"ל

Is there a way of making it show the correct (")?

Does this happen only in this language (not sure which alphabet this is, Hebrew maybe?) or also in other languages?
Looks a little bit as if the entity is translated wrong..., because it should be " for ".

Maybe the problem appears due to the right to left orientation, because somehow instead of " the ";" comes first and the "&" comes last. Not sure where this happens though.

By the way: which LS version?

Just tested it on 3.22.17 and 3.22.19 and it displays perfectly fine.



So I guess you are on 4.x?

But also on 4.2.1 (the version that the Limesurvey demo is running) it looks fine, just like with 3.x.

After reading this and thinking, I think I know why.
I think it's because of the company I use for the email.

OK, so the problem is within the emails sent?

Is this a standard Limesurvey text or is this a text that you included yourself somewhere?

"standard Limesurvey text" in Hebrew.
Don't know about other languages.

OK, I tested it with a question text included by me. So this could still be a limesurvey problem, depending where it is coming from, how it is parsed by limesurvey, etc. Did you check in the translate.limesurvey.org if it has been translated correctly there?

It's translated correctly in Hebrew.

As @holch,
when I add hebrew as a language to a survey, copy the דוא"ל to the invitation text or the topic, then send the invitation everything is file despite of different mail clients.

Therefore I entered these options to the invitation text: In the received mail the second was displayed correct (as expected), the first was not.

I am sure you also did these tests. What happens when you did this?

But to clarify:

I have a translation in the PO file that uses this (").

Did you change the translation by PoEdit?
In this new translation of a phrase - which was one of the invitation text - you used דוא"ל ?
Did you get the correct result when entering this phrase manually?

In this case there might be an issue in PoEdit.

No, I did not test emails, because it was only discovered towards the end that this problem is email related.
