[ECODP-dev] Review of website

Wed Aug 21 16:37:56 UTC 2013

Hi Glen,

In Transifex you can search for the translated text within a language which
should make it quite quick to locate the term that needs to be edited. If
you click in the search field a drop down appears with different filters,
just choose "translation text" from there and then enter the text you're
looking for.

The attached screenshot shows this in action.

Best,

Darwin
