    Application for French Translator Role in POEditor

    Dear EspoCRM Team,

    I would like to apply to become a translator for French in POEditor. I’ve noticed a few basic errors in the current French translations, such as:
    • "leads" (English) translated as "plomb" (which means "lead metal" in French).
    • "custom" (English) translated as "douane" (which refers to "customs border" in French).

    I’d love to help correct these small inaccuracies and contribute to improving EspoCRM for the French-speaking market. In the future, I might also be interested in creating a Canadian French branch, but for now, I’d focus on European French edits.

    Looking forward to your response!

    Best regards,
    Jean-Marc Ayotte

              You need to send a pull request back to the original repository. It should appear here: https://github.com/espocrm/cla/pulls. Then we will confirm it.

                  We can help with the Polish translation if needed — I just need a clear instruction on how to get started (I'm not very familiar with GitHub stuff).

                  By the way, I wanted to share that we use a lot of custom translations on our end, because different teams have their own specific terms for the same artifacts. We take advantage of this fantastic EspoCRM feature that lets users work using their own terminology.

                  For example, we have an entity we call Deployments, but another team prefers to call it Installations — so why not? ;->

                  I'd also like to mention that we're having an issue with translations in list view headers within entities. Some of them — even core ones — remain in English despite having translations provided.

                  We've looked into this and it's quite hard to consistently reproduce a "successful" scenario, but it seems that in such cases, you need to remove the fields from Layouts | List View, perform a Rebuild, and then add them back again. Still not sure
