❓ Question

Hello! :)
I deployed PasswordPusher to an Azure WebApp Service (issue #277).
Everything works fine. Branding, Config with environment variables and so on.
I can change the default language with the environment variables with an issue. There is one thing i'd like to change left - some text from the localization files. I can not find the files within the Azure App Services.
Does anyone have an similar setup and achieved this?

Thanks for your input! :)

Hi @Manu-H - it's not currently possible to change many of the strings (easily). The English strings are in the source code and their language translations are in config/locales.

You could rewrite those files and overlay new versions but that wouldn't affect English language strings.

The problem is that I could make some of the strings configurable, but then they would have no other language translations.

Which strings did you want to change?

Hi Manu-H,

I have deployed to Azure Web App too, via the screenshot methods noted in #277. Just wondered if you did anything differently as I cannot get the config changes to apply, using the environment variables (Application settings?).

Currently trying simple stuff like PWP_DEFAULT_LOCALE and PWP__BRAND__TAGLINE variables, but they are not taking even after a web app restart.

EDIT: PWP__BRAND__TAGLINE is working now but themes are not working at all.

if I use PWP__THEME setting, with value "cerulean", the theme remains default change, If I add the PWP_PRECOMPILE=true setting the container doesn't start at all.

EDIT 2: Working now, no other reason than, just wait longer! Seems to take longer to create the containers with the precompile, but its still very hit n miss!

That's good to hear that it's working now. Setting PWP_PRECOMPILE does cause all of the assets to be re-compiled for the new theme on container boot which can take 30-90 seconds (depending on the system). I should probably add that to the documentation.

Is everything else working for you now @chesterbeckett?

Hi @Manu-H - I'll close out this issue soon if nothing remains.

I will get to moving all the strings out to independent yaml files eventually but no ETA yet.

Let me know if you need anything else.
