  • You can now edit the steps of the user tour in order to translate it into your language.
    • Note in the following screen image that some strings inside a blue rectangle already appear as translated; that is because those language strings are part of your language pack and had been properly translated at AMOS.
    • The strings you can now translate are the ones enclosed in a green rectangle:

  • Edit the remaining steps, one at a time, replacing the English language strings with your translation.
  • Check that your edited (translated) file works as intended.
  • Export the tour.
  • The exported file is your translation.
  • Submit it to the Moodle.net user tours database.
  • If you can, please translate the User Tools Moodle documentation too.
