Hello!
Is somebody skilled enough to complete this template to use mxliff files in MemoQ?

I'd need it to include comments. I've tried contacting Warek (the guy who did the template), but after a few messages he stopped answering.

I'd need it to include comments. I've tried contacting Warek (the guy who did the template), but after a few messages he stopped answering.
This template is a great resource and it's such a pity it doesn't take into account comments.

Unfortunately, I have no coding skill at all so I can't do that myself. But I can change the files with a text editor if somebody tells me how and where.

Thank you!

I have tried it, but it doesn't work at all. I also contacted Warek, but his only suggestion was to reinstall it. As I had very carefully followed the instructions the first time, it is unlikely that doing exactly the same thing again would make any difference, though.

Can you get it to work without comments?

Yes Sep 12, 2019

Hi!
Yes, I made it work eventually. It needed some trial and error, though. Did you try the updated version or the first one? He published a newer template a while after the first.
It worked quite well for the cells, but I really miss the comments.
Cheers,
Fabio

I have no idea, since I don't know when he published the different versions. I tried in November 2018. Has it been updated since?

I have no idea how to trial and error it, so I just gave up and added a very simple regex filter for dealing with the Memsource tags after importing an mxliff with the standard xliff filter.

Hello again.

I think you have the most updated version.

Since you know how to create filters, could you give a look into it and add comments (or add them to your filter)?

I'd really need them and I don't know who to ask.

Thanks!
Fabio

I don't think you can use the Regex tagger to import comments. It just replaces Memsource tags such as {1} with MemoQ tags after import of the file.

I don't get the statuses and match percentages imported with the default xliff filter.

I've heard that MemoQ may look into a solution to support mxliff properly, but that doesn't help us in the meantime.

No template/filter experts in this forum then, I guess.
