* As discussed at [[todo/l10n]] the templates needs to be translatable too. They
should be treated properly by po4a using the markdown option - at least with my
secondary parameter overriding the default locale (for messages like "N/A" as
percentage in po plugin). Alternatively (with above mentioned template support)
all such strings could be externalized as templates that can then be localized.

+# Robustness tests
+
+### Enabling/disabling the plugin
+
+* enabling the plugin with `po_translatable_pages` set to blacklist: **OK**
+* enabling the plugin with `po_translatable_pages` set to whitelist: **OK**
+* enabling the plugin without `po_translatable_pages` set: **OK**
+* disabling the plugin: **OK**
+
+### Changing the plugin config
+
+* adding existing pages to `po_translatable_pages`: **OK**
+* removing existing pages from `po_translatable_pages`: **OK**
+* adding a language to `po_slave_languages`: **OK**
+* removing a language from `po_slave_languages`: **OK**
+* changing `po_master_language`: **OK**
+* replacing `po_master_language` with a language previously part of
+ `po_slave_languages`: needs two rebuilds, but **OK** (this is quite

+
+### Creating/deleting/renaming pages
+
+All cases of master/slave page creation/deletion/rename, both via RCS

+Duplicate %links ?
+------------------
+
+I notice code in the scan hook that seems to assume
+that %links will accumulate duplicate links for a page.
+That used to be so, but the bug was fixed. Does this mean
+that po might be replacing the only link on a page, in error?

+# Failing to have currentlang respected when using inline
+I am trying to wrap my head around l10n with ikiwiki. Set up a test site, l10n is working fine.
+Now when inlining a bunch of pages, no matter what inline template I use all links are
+going to the master language, the slave being ignored on all levels I tried.
+
+Trying to use currentlang() inside the inline directive to force the current setting in ikiwiki.setup - I get **no pages or links** to pages at all.
+\[[!inline pages=\"man/* and currentlang() and !*/sidebar and !*/b and !*.*\" template=\"inlinepage\" archive=\"yes\" quick=\"yes\" show=\"0\" sort=\"mtime\" reverse=\"no\"]]
+
+Turning meta title on slave translation pages on and off - **no change**.
+Turning usedirs on and off - **no change**.
+Testing with different inline templates - **no change**.
+Trying the use of tags on the slave language pages - **tagged() doesn't match any tagged pages**.
+
+I tried everything I could think of being the cause.
+Could this be related to the templates used by inline not being localized?
+Any hints wether I am currently running into some dead end with ikiwiki regarding template l10n here would be greatly appreciated.
+
+Besides: When using the map instead of the inline directive, regarding l10n all is working like it should, pitty is that for the kind of deployment I am heading for I will also need pages to be included with a custom template. --[[Boris]]

+Hello, I am not sure whether it's the right way to add a comment here, but I downloaded po4a from Debian repository and built it. Typing 'use Locale::Po4a::Po;' into a 'perl' session doesn't interrupt it -- I believe it is installed already. Yet in websetup there is no 'use po?' section. I am at a loss what to do. I am using nearlyfreespeech for hosting. --[[users/svetlana]]

+
+> > I had to set ikiwiki's INSTALL_BASE to ~/perl5, and install local::lib, to get the wiki to see Locale::Po4a::Po. What was helpful is `ikiwiki --setup wiki/ikiwiki.setup --wrappers` as it outputs the useful error message straight away if it can't find something in @INC. It is finally working now. --[[users/svetlana]]
+
+# Confuses a map
+
+The `\[[!map pages="*"]]` directive works in confused ways when po plugin is enabled. It lists items like this:
+
+- [foo](foo/index.en.html)
+ - [index.ru](foo/index.ru)
+ - [index.ja](foo/index.ja)
+
+I'm not sure what to do with it, I would like to be able to list pages only in one language. --[[users/svetlana]] 10:10AM February 8, 2017
