Hello dears

There is a problem with the buttons position in the spanish version of Wordpress 4.2

I upload a screencapture

Thanks for support

The same is happening in the Catalan version

I managed to fix this issue using the following code. But, I'm sure this can't be that easy and I'm leaving edge cases out.

#save-action {
    float: left;
    width: 50%;
}

#preview-action {
    float: right;
    width: 50%;
}

The problem with that code is that it'll take the spinner to a new line. Plus, for some other languages it will make both buttons overlap.

Proposed patch

@Rynald0s, thanks for the patch! However, minified files should not be patched, our build tools take care of that.

Could you provide a patch for the non-minified file? Use the ​SCRIPT_DEBUG constant for that.

Absolutely. Thanks so much, Sergey.

Nice! unfortunately that patch will leave the preview button unaligned with the "Publish" button.

At the same time, for other languages like the ones mentioned in #20842 (I guess russian and arabic), this patch won't take effect, because they have larger strings.

I think the only way to get this solved is thinking about a new distribution for the buttons. With things as they are right now, we'll always depend on the length of the string, and that varies from language to language.

Was looking at the translated strings for Russian and Arabic languages (#20842). The string in Russian language you see in the image doesn't correspond with the string in the translation file as it is today. Then again, this was 3 years ago so it appears that this issue was resolved by simply taking the languages that has long strings ('Save Draft' button), and making them smaller.

That said, disregard the proposed patch and instead, we could just change the string in Spanish language files from "Guardar borrador", to only "Guardar", and in Catalan language files from "Desa l'esborrany" to only "Desa." The same has been done for Russian language. This will be the new proposed 'patch'.

I have already made the translation suggestions for Spanish & Catalan languages. As per #20842, both Russian and Arabic displays correctly so this could be marked as complete/solved.

Thanks

Awesome. Have you sent a message with this new translation suggestion?

I have suggested the new translation strings.

[juanfra]

Yep, I saw the new string suggestion in polyglots. But, have you accompanied that suggestion with a message to the reviewer with a reference to this ticket?

I've contacted the Spanish translation team in order to aware them of this new suggestion.

Ah, no I have not done that. Thanks for letting them know.

Actually, the string is still there:

• ​Russian
• ​Arabic
• ​Spanish

And the screenshot from comment:4:ticket:20842 is still relevant. The string in question is not "Save Draft", but "Save as Pending", which is displayed for users with Contributor role.

Let's continue working on this in #20842, since it's essentially the same issue.
