Weblate 2026.5

Released on May 15th 2026.

New features

  • Added MDX files support for translating Markdown text while preserving JSX syntax, with File format parameters shared with Markdown files for line wrapping, code blocks, front matter, and placeholder handling.

  • Added a digest-only translation activity summary notification, see Notifications.

  • CSV and XLSX downloads in Downloading translations now export plural strings as separate plural-form rows that can be imported back.

  • Added Gettext PO and POT File format parameters to control whether Weblate updates the Language-Team, Last-Translator, X-Generator, and Report-Msgid-Bugs-To headers.

  • Added a backup to run configured backup services synchronously.

  • The translation memory lookup API can now skip fuzzy matching with the exact query parameter.

  • Added Translation files CDN to publish translation files to the configured CDN.

Improvements

  • Using DOS line endings can now be configured using the dos_eol File format parameters.

  • OpenAI and Alibaba no longer require their vendor Python SDKs.

  • Gerrit review pushes now use Push branch as the target branch.

  • Weblate now checks whether CACHE_DIR allows executing generated helper files.

  • The Software Bill of Material is now generated during release and published as a versioned release asset instead of being stored in the source repository.

  • The translating page now separates screenshots from string information, collapses rarely used string details, and groups glossary and screenshot actions more consistently.

  • Project access management now paginates users and better explains site-wide automatic team assignments.

  • Added provider-oriented code hosting documentation and Gettext-style Plural formula guidance.

  • The Python wheel no longer ships source translation catalogs, test files, or deployment example files, reducing the installed package size.

Bug fixes

  • Hardened search previews and Automatic suggestions suggestion origins against XSS, and stopped exposing database error details in upload failures (CVE 2026-45106 / GHSA-6wxc-8mgq-w26m).

  • Screenshot URL uploads, remote HTML extraction in JavaScript localization CDN, and URL health-check redirects now reject internal or non-public targets by default.

  • Gerrit review pushes now reject target branches containing push options, track the target branch before invoking git-review, and suggest short branch names when full refs are supplied.

  • Category Announcements no longer appear across the whole project, and translation announcement deletion now honors language-scoped permissions.

  • Merge request pushes now refresh stale fork remotes after changing repository hosting.
