Hello

I needed to edit the default contents of the resource "MESSAGE_PORTAL_TERMS.Text" which is accessible via the Language Editor. To do this I selected GlobalResources and then in the text box corresponding to MESSAGE_PORTAL_TERMS.txt,  I used the built-in text editor to make my changes.

After editing the text in Host mode, I clicked on "Save Resource File". This action created a new reference called  GlobalResources.Host.resx that contains my changes but also a lot of unwanted line break tags. Some buggy process has inserted these into the HTML corresponding to GlobalResources.Host.resx thus creating a mess as "Localized Value".  After making another change to the text under GlobalResources yet another reference was created. This time called GlobalResources.Host.Host.resx. I suspect the Host.resx, Host.Host.resx, Host.Host.Host.resx, etc references were created to save changes that won't be overwritten with the next DNN update, but I am not sure. Please clarify this for me if you can.  

Q1: Once a *.Host.resx reference/file is created should all further editing changes be made to that file via the "Edit value in text Editor" pencil icon. 

Q2: Is it a bug that several .Host references/files are created? Which one is important? Can I safely delete the extra/superfluous ones?

Q3: If I deleted all the *.Host.resx references (the contents of which don't seem to be used) then will I lose my changes when I update to a new version of DNN. I am currently running DNN version 7.2.2.

Regards,
Daniel

Hi Sebastian

As stated above, "I am currently running DNN version 7.2.2". Hence, it appears the bug has NOT been completely fixed even in generation 7 of DNN. When you get a moment would you please respond to questions Q1, Q2 and Q3.

Many thanks,
Daniel
