Another reason for not making it localized is that FAQ and other section can get updates in future, and if any localized version is provided, someone needs to re-translate it again, which would be a pain for everyone.

Let me know, if you think providing a localized version of FAQ can be helpful. I am looking into possibilities.
i agree with you that retranslation may be a pain. but i consider localized faq to be very important. maybe just make it localizable with bold big 'last updated date' and with link to latest english faq (for people who speak english)?

and thanks for all.

Btw do you guys think forum font is small? i just noticed it is 13px, normal is 13px-15px, i like 14px which is a bit more large.
i will need some input on this.
i did think that initially but i am used to it now. Is it easy to change on the test website so we can make an assessment?

Is it possible to change that? It doesn't get updated super often, but that means that the website, where people are more likely to look first, will be lagging behind.
Okay it is possible to get the content from wiki via their api. Whenever you need to update the FAQ, All you need to do is to edit the faq on the WIKIA and the website faq will auto update itself. It is fully automatic.
Steven won't have to manage the faq section at all. Does this sound good?

Awesome!

I'll have to ask somebody about page IDs, that's new to me.

I will make some test to see if this is possible without breaking anything.

I would prefer the current size, not larger.

AvikB, maybe its possible to have some settings in user profile or somewhere else? personally for me its not the problem at all, i'm using firefox extension, which allows me to adjust site colors/text sizes, but some people may need these settings.

here is your latest russian php file, but with all these 3 buttons "get msusicbee..." translated:

Unfortunately, it is not possible anymore. the FAQ page will use wikia FAQ, which is in english. If anyone is interested in creating different language muiscbee FAQ they will need to create a seperate wikia, and then link between them to let the user know what other language is available.

If you create the localized faq on the wiki, I can put a link to it at the top of the FAQ page.
