@stefan-niedermann to have links correctly and clickable displayed, you can have a look how we do it in our "participate view":

Any update on here?

@rakekniven yes, @tobiasKaminsky fixed today the bad translations on transifex (there have been some spaces where they shouldn't have been)

The encoding you mentioned in the first few posts ist fine, because it is HTML embedded in the XML - therefore the <-characters in the HTML-tags have to be encoded.

To be honest I am not satisfied with the answer.
The encoding looks bad at Transifex. See

There should be another way to handle URLs. I cannot judge the comment by @tobiasKaminsky from technical side. Currently we only have such strange strings for this app at Transifex.

I am unable to open this issue again.

Well that's the same way, we are handling for Nextcloud Notes (android) which works pretty good with transifx.

Pull Requests for changing this behavior are welcome :)

We could think about splitting this up:
text + <href=" + url + ">Name + </a>

where

• text, name is in transifex
• url is in setup.xml (as an example) with translatable=false
• both &lt… are also with translatable=false and constants, e.g. link_start _link_end

This way no one could do any error again (like we saw on japanese)
