GSoC'26 - Translator Feedback Loop [Week Report #9]

By Krishna Gandhi on 2026-07-27 19:33 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

For an overview of how things are going, see the Kanban board of the project Done this week: - Built RAG: published translation rules are now retrieved and injected into the translation prompt, so the machine translation follows them (#7, #8, merged).- Retrieval works in three tiers: flatten the item's text, one indexed query for the published rules of the target language, then whole word matching, capped so the prompt stays bounded.- Live tested it in German across terminology,...

GSoC'26 - Automated Workflow [Week Report #8]

By Weno Ndum Billy Hans on 2026-07-27 13:53 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

This week was almost entirely the condition builder interface. The subform based approach from the previous week could not express nesting, and my mentors had asked for the subform to go. So I replaced it with a purpose built builder: a single condition tree, built by adding checks and expressions, serialised to one JSON value rather than a repeatable form. That meant removing the old condition form files, writing the builder itself, and adding constraints so operators and values stay valid...

GSoC'26 – Multi-category Support for Joomla [week Report #9]

By Reda Mohamed on 2026-07-25 17:04 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

What I have done Completed multi-category support for com_newsfeeds, including backend integration, saving/loading secondary categories, and category filtering. Implemented custom fields support for the API in both com_content (articles) and com_contact, ensuring fields assigned to secondary categories load and save correctly. Resolved API PATCH request behaviors to safely preserve existing tags when payloads are sent without a tags property. Continued extensive testing...

GSoC'26 - Translator Feedback Loop [Week Report #8]

By Krishna Gandhi on 2026-07-20 17:33 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

For an overview of how things are going, see the Kanban board of the project Done this week: - Defaulted the translation queue status filter to "review" on a first visit, so translators land on the items waiting for feedback while the filter stays clearable (merged, #18). - Backfilled pre-existing Joomla associations into the translation queue on install, so already-translated articles show their real per-language state instead of "No translation yet" and are not offered for...

GSoC'26 - Automated Workflow [Week Report #7]

By Weno Ndum Billy Hans on 2026-07-20 13:49 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

Two pull requests landed this week, completing the conditions and filters feature that the post-midterm plan put first. PR #15 added the condition evaluation engine and item filtering to the transition task plugin, and PR #16 added the interface for it. Together these let an automation rule say both which items it applies to and when it should fire, rather than firing for everything in a stage. Alongside that I reworked how a due automation is passed around the plugin,...
