How to find type in string SHARED_A_TYPE was created by timstohr
Hi Kyle,
I know about language translation and string etc... I have also translated my site now to German. One problem though exists and that SHARED_A_TYPE or HAVE_A_TYPES_TO_SHARE.
The text itself is correctly translated but I cannot find the language string for [type]. The thing is in German you write Datei, Foto, Musik and [type] is written datei, foto, musik etc...
Some help here would be great...

That's the CB Activity output for CB Gallery. The [type] is typically just a clickable modal link with the uploads title or filename. If it's not the modal link it'll fallback to whatever the type is which would be one of the following.
Photo
Video
Music
File
If there was more than one upload grouped it would be one of the following.
Photos
Videos
Music
Files
So as long as those strings are translated they should come through [type] as translated as well. You do not translate the substitutions though. Meaning [type] should be [type] in the language string no matter what the language is.

The problem is that the type is translated wrong. I need to change the translation of
Photo
Video
Music
File
into German is wrong. I need to update the translation of the fallback as the fallback is wrong.
Where can I find the "fallback" string?
Kind regards,
Tim

We don't provide translations. All language plugins are community driven. If there's an error in the language string you'll need to correct it using a language override or contribute to that language project on transifex. All language overrides are done from the same place as always; the override tab of your language plugin as shown below.
www.joomlapolis.com/blog/kyle/18701-language-overrides-have-arrived
If you need to override Photo then override it from the above page. Not every language string has a set language key. This means the language key is auto generated. The language key can also be just the language string. So for example you could override with the below.
Key: Photo
Text: PHOTO
Note that for the that activity display it will run the language string through UTF8 safe string to lower function as it's supposed to be lowercase as it's in the middle of a sentence.

Hi Kyle,
I have tried the language overrides (I have known about them a long time ago...). The problem is that I cannot get to these strings at all...
Please have a look at the screenshot I have attached. The Word Files is properly translated (Translation in Orange) but the yellow ones are not properly translated and are not caught using the overrides.
Also, the whole sentence structure "===>===\Thorsten Mötje /---<=== **Geteilt *4 *dateien*** in deiner Gruppe ===\Bug reports/---* " does not make sense at all in German. It should be "===>===\Thorsten Mötje /---<=== hat *4 *Dateien*** in deiner Gruppe ===\Bug reports/--- *geteilt*"
In another component, I have found that they have found a solution to the languages needing the words in different orders. They have as string for example: [NAME] hat [NUMBER][FILETYPE] in deiner Gruppe [NAMEGROUP] erstellt". That way you can kinda play around with the different sentence arrangement (and grammar) depending on the languages.
Any idea how I can do this?

OK stupid me, it is already in Transifex. I just found the option to do exactly what I described. I will simply go over transifex then.
