2. GSoC'26 – Multi-category Support for Joomla [Week Report #11]

   What I have done

   • Renamed the term "secondary categories" to "additional categories" everywhere in the code.

   • Updated the frontend UI. Now, all categories are shown together under one simple label: "Categories:...".

   • Changed settings so "additional categories" options now depend on the "main category" settings to avoid conflicts.

   • Updated the Articles module to show both the main category and additional categories, but only if the user has permission to see them. It also respects the "Category Link" option.

   • Updated Cypress tests to use the new names and check the menu item settings.

3. GSoC'26 - Translator Feedback Loop [Week Report #11]

   For an overview of how things are going, see the Kanban board of the project

   ---

   Done this week:

    

   - Raised a pull request on the Joomla core repository, (the first to core of this project): editing a category quietly dropped any unpublished translation from its association group, and republishing did not bring it back. It was found while extending re-translation to categories, traced to a 2018 change meant for the frontend language switcher, verified against `5.4-dev`, and fixed without changing what the switcher displays (joomla-cms#48208). 
   - Made the translator views work in the frontend, so a translator account with no access to the administrator at all can do the full job (a

5. GSoC'26 - Translator Feedback Loop [Week Report #10]

   For an overview of how things are going, see the Kanban board of the project

   ---

   Done this week:

    

   - Ran the whole feedback loop end to end for the first time: an article was translated, corrected by hand, approved, and distilled into three rules, and re-translating the same source then produced the translation with all three corrections on its own, covering terminology, tone and a term kept untranslated.
   - Split saving from approving in the editor: Save now only saves, Approve records the corrections against the machine draft, and Approve and Publish also makes the translation live (#109).
   - Fixed saving a translation rule, which had stopped working for every rule type after the previous form change (a
