Description

If you create a new sub-category, for instance for Tiki Cart, the name of the category will get translated, if you want it or not. It's compulsory.

For instance, I wanted to add sub-category to Products named "button". The Wiki shall be for the use of a non-profit organisation, and those typically have buttons (to attach to your clothing).

Tiki Wiki 18 immediately translates "button" to "Schaltfläche" and creates the sub-category with just that translated name, which is pure and utter nonsense. Side note: Besides the fact that an automatic translation is definitely unwanted here, it's perfectly wrong also. Button is ambigous can mean the sticker your your clothing or something to click on in a GUI. And in German these have different translations.

Tiki Wiki chose the GUI meaning, which is wrong. And again, it's totally unwanted. So I assume this is some internal malfunction that produces a translation (localization) somewhere in the logic that parses entries here.

"button" seems to be a reserved "magic" keyword, but there should be no reserved keywords when it comes to names, because this means that names are not transparent, but opaque.

It is really impossible to create a sub-category named "button" and thus to sell buttons with Tiki Cart...
