On the Krita.org website, the latest article "Krita Monthly Update - Edition 22" was released on January 16, 2025. I completed a Simplified Chinese translation of it on January 17, but by January 21—almost a week later—I still didn't see the translated version online. Note: the article received updates on 2 sentences on January 17, 2025. I don't know if it has anything to do with this issue. In contrast, my translations for the Krita app (Wolthera's Softproofing updates) have already appeared. So at least KDE's translation SVN is functioning as intended. Perhaps there is an issue specifically with krita.org's backend?
I guess it's the same as with the documentation website, translations don't kick off rebuilds. It appears that this is a conscious decision by the sysadmins, so for docs.krita.org I kick off a manual build every monday. I'll check now.
No... There is a daily build for translations, but for some reason the builds are failing: https://invent.kde.org/websites/krita-org/-/pipelines

The issue shoudl be fixed now! :)
Thank you guys! :)
This issue is still happening. The latest articles: https://krita.org/en/posts/2025/new_video_impasto_brushes/ https://krita.org/en/posts/2025/krita-5-2-9-released/ are not updating with my Chinese translations.
Perhaps a translation SVN sync issue on our end. The problem seems to have been resolved now. Sorry for the false alarm.
The website is not updating with the translation again. The article: Krita Monthly Update - Edition 25 has been translated into Simplified Chinese for many days now, but it is still untranslated on the website.
https://invent.kde.org/websites/krita-org/-/pipeline_schedules shows that the pipeline for daily translation updates dan 10 hours ago, though?
There must be something specific with the translations that are being done with Chinese that are having issues. It still appears new translations are coming across and appearing on krita.org These are the changes that came across the past day: https://invent.kde.org/websites/krita-org/-/commit/0966512c37a274e693554d4d9c642f6805c02247 The first change is including an Italian version for Wesley Gardner's post. I am seeing all those translations on krita.org now: https://krita.org/it/posts/2025/draw_and_paint_better_with_krita/ It looks like all the translations for Chinese are done here in the SVN repository (need to click the "..." at the bottom to see krita.org entries): https://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kf5/zh_CN/messages/websites-krita-org/ Based off this file alone, it appears a lot of the English text and URLs were updated. I am not sure if that affects the Chinese translations at all. Someone might have to look at the Chinese translations in SVN to see if anything looks off. My guess is there was some cleanup that happened that might have took the Chinese translations offline. https://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kf5/zh_CN/messages/websites-krita-org/news.po?pathrev=1707549&r1=1707549&r2=1707548&limit_changes=0
I will contact the KDE Chinese Team maintainer and see if there is anything he can do about it.
It seems the translated version of the article is up now. We didn't do anything on our end. Shall we close this bug, or there is things we should investigate? I mean, Krita.org not updating the latest Simplified Chinese translation has been a recurring issue.
We can probably close it. When working with the Chinese translator, you could do a test to see how long it takes for a translation to actually make it on krita.org. Maybe there is something with the process that is slow and it taking longer than it needs to.
I translate everything related to Krita for the KDE Chinese Team. I completed translating that specific article on Apr 22, 2025, at 11:55 (UTC+8). Here’s how our system works (estimated time, UTC+8): 1. (01:00 AM) A script on our server pulls the latest source files from KDE Translation SVN. 2. (02:00 AM) The pulled data is uploaded to Crowdin. 3. (04:00 AM) A script builds our latest translation on Crowdin by the end of the day. 4. (06:00 AM) A script pushes the built translation to KDE Translation SVN. 5. I translate all new and useful content in Crowdin before day's end. In a worst-case scenario, we expect new translations on krita.org within three days at most. I monitor this via the New column in Krita's splash screen and start paying attention if nothing appears after five days, notifying you if there are no updates after seven days. Since we haven't made any changes on our end and the translation data updates correctly every day, I don't believe there's an issue with us. I suspect there may be a problem in the translation pipelines of krita.org and docs.krita.org, as similar situations have occurred too many times before.
Thanks for that info. The build pipelines for krita.org, at least, hasn't changed in quite a few months to my knowledge...so it might not be that. I have seen a KDE email going around recently about the CI infrastructure that actually does these builds. The infrastructure is getting a bit overloaded, so there might be some changes happening behind the scenes that are delaying things but doing these copying and builds differently. I would say let's just let it sit for now and see if it continues in the future.
Yeah, you are right, it could be a CI hiccup. Let's see where it goes. Thanks! :)
