Is there a way to change the localization file?

We want to change this German gender stuttering back to the generic masculine.

Thanks

Hi Kristoff,

> Is there a way to change the localization file?

This is the German localization file in 2.5 https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton/commits/v2.5.x-release/bigbluebutton-html5/public/locales/de.json

You could also download  a specific BBB version using the tag in https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton/tags (or just navigating the history) and copy over de.json

Just replace  /usr/share/meteor/bundle/programs/web.browser/app/locales/de.json with the file you donwloaded. There might be some slight difference other than the rewording but at this point of 2.5's releases the translations should be pretty stable.

When ready, just restart BigBlueButton so the changes are picked up.
