French translation updates

[tdhock]

It seems like the French translation has not been updated in a while, because I see some French words and some English words when I activate French as user language.

Would you be open to a PR that updates the French translation?

Is there a weblate server?

Or should we just use the po file? https://github.com/pgadmin-org/pgadmin4/blob/master/web/pgadmin/translations/fr/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po

@Nicolas-Letellier because he is listed as Last-Translator

I also see Language-Team: français <pgadmin-hackers@postgresql.org> in that file, so would it be better to communicate on email rather than on issues?

Thanks!

Hi,
I’ve the same problem with the version 8.13 for this example. Some message can’t translate. It’s an issue.

Actualy, I can’t change my version of pgadmin4. It’s the reason, I don’t update the French translation. I hope do new update of the translation in 2026.
But, if you want you can update the translation. The instruction is here : https://www.pgadmin.org/development/translations/

Hi @tdhock,

You can raise PR for translations updates. For more details you can refer translation documentation here

The main menus - Edit, View and Window are not respecting language selected in pgAdmin. They're being used as-is with defaults.

thanks for your responses!
https://www.pgadmin.org/development/translations/ says "then save the .po file and send it to the pgadmin-hackers mailing list." is that true? or would a PR be preferable?

At Université de Sherbrooke we use pgAdmin4 in our teaching (in French), so it would be nice to have a working French translation of the interface, but currently we use the interface in English because of this issue.

We have plans to do an update of the French translation of pgAdmin4 as a class project for students of translation next semester, so we would most likely submit a PR with the updated translations in Mar or Apr 2026, is that ok?
