  • Reactivate a completed project in WorldServer

    • 9 Comments
    In TeamWorks it was possible to reactivate a completed project, for example if it was completed by mistake. In WorldServer it is impossible to do so, and the translated SDLXLIFF cannot be integrated in a new project nearly as easily, either. Also, sometimes...

    It would be nice if, once a project is already created, it were possible to update the name of the project, in case something changes. A possible change could be adding the words Test or DNU. It may be desirable to leave the project in production for...

    Would be very handy to enable users to communicate between themselves. Could be a translator contacting the project manager or the project creator to submit some queries about the translation. Some competitors already offer this type of useful functionality...

  • Proper search function

    • 2 Comments
    The filter functionality offers the possibility to launch searches on projects. However, searching with the filter functionality is time-consuming, not really intuitive nor user-friendly. Moreover, once you are ready with your search, your need to reset...

    Under Management > Administration > Notification Content a number of variables ('Parameters') are available to be used in the body text of the email (header, task summary and footer). Unfortunately, the subject of the notification mails is always the...

    Please add Step as an available column in the Assignments > Project view, under Choose columns. Right now, to see the status of each language I have to open the task or open the Tree view and expand each language which is a lot of clicks.

    • 5 Comments
    In the project list, it is currently possible to view "projects assigned to me". For a project manager however, it would also be very useful to be able to select "projects assigned to <user>" (where you can indicate the user). Or maybe even "projects...

    • 0 Comments
    In version 10 of WorldServer, the "(View one page at a time)" option enabled you to see all projects and all tasks in one page. This is particularly useful in accounts where it is standard to have projects with hundreds of files, as it is not practical...

    • 1 Comment
    Although we trained our customers how to create jobs in WorldServer and we mentioned that in the "description" field right at the beginning they should only enter necessary information for the project managers or translators, we still receive texts like...
