Almost all of the catalog MFE is well translated… except for the “search” button. Here is a screenshot of what it looks like in French: [Capture d’écran, le 2026-01-29 à 11.46.46] I could not find why the “search” button is not translated. Any clue ?

@Peter_Kulko could you kindly take a look?

We also found that “Filters” and “Showing 1 - 2 of 2”, and “Winter 2029” are not translated, in the “catalog/courses” page (see screenshot) [Capture d’écran, le 2026-01-30 à 09.51.41]

I don’t think Winter 2029 would be translated because it’s not a platform string, it’s course information.

I think you could remove the existing demo course and upload your own version with a date if you need that translated. GitHub - openedx/openedx-demo-course: A demonstration course that can be imported into an Open edX instance

ok, then if it’s an issue with just the demo course, ignore that part. The Filters, search and “Showing x of x” are the only issues we found with translation so far.

Hi everyone, Thank you for pointing this out. These translation issues related to Paragon. The “Search” text inside the SearchField button is not localized, whereas the other strings are not translated into French. I’ll take a look and address this. Thanks again!

Mmm, if it’s a specific date, it is translated however (1 janv. 2023, rather than Jan. 1 2023):
