Summary

In SpikerSoft Profile → Travel section, when the interface language is set to Spanish, several text boxes display untranslated placeholder tags such as _review. These tags appear instead of the proper localized text, breaking consistency with the English version.

Issue Description

While navigating the Travel section with Spanish selected, multiple UI elements show raw localization keys (e.g., _review Países visitados, _review Estados visitados, _review Mapa de viajes). These placeholders indicate missing or incorrectly mapped translation strings in the Spanish language pack.

Environment

Property	Value
Application	SpikerSoft
Module	Profile → Travel
Environment	Production
Browser	Firefox / Chrome
Operating System	Windows 11
Version	v2026.09.28d
Device	Desktop

Preconditions

User must have Spanish selected as the display language.

Steps to Reproduce

Log in to SpikerSoft.
Navigate to Perfil → Viajes.
Observe the text in the travel statistics boxes and map labels.
Notice that several fields display _review tags instead of translated text.

Expected Result

All text elements should appear correctly localized in Spanish, maintaining the same structure and clarity as the English version.

Actual Result

Several UI elements show untranslated _review tags.
The English version displays proper labels (e.g., “Countries visited”, “States visited”, “Travel Map”).
The Spanish version breaks visual and linguistic consistency.

Evidence

The screenshots show the Travel section with _review tags visible in multiple boxes and labels.

Impact

Reduces readability and professionalism of the Spanish interface.
Confuses users who expect complete localization.
Minor but noticeable quality issue in multilingual support.

Frequency

Always

Reproducibility

100%

Severity

Medium

Suggested Fix

Verify Spanish localization keys for the Travel module.
Ensure all _review placeholders are replaced with proper translations.
Conduct a full audit of the Spanish language pack to confirm consistency across modules.

fix(i18n): strip leaked "_review" text from Spanish values

Confirmed and fixed — and your report turned out to cover much more than the Travel tab. Thank you!

What was wrong: our Spanish text lives in es.json. When a translation still needs a native speaker to check it, the convention is to list its key in a separate _review checklist inside the file — the app never shows that list. In a few recent changes, the marker was typed into the visible text itself (e.g. "_review Países visitados"). Nothing tested for that, so it slipped through.

How big it was: 104 Spanish strings, not just the three you saw:

65 starting with _review — the Travel tab, the travel map, and the Careers page;
39 more ending in _review — Art Studio's concept regions and two viewer buttons, plus one Space Game error message.

What changed (spikerj/spikersoft-angular#1407, merged)

Removed the marker from all 104 strings. The Spanish underneath was already fine.
Kept them queued for native review the correct way, as _review checklist entries.
Added an automated test that fails if _review ever appears inside a visible string again, in any language file.

It will be live with the next deploy. Reopen this if you still see _review anywhere in the Spanish UI.
