Hi.

When users like to share articles with users we have the following warnings in the log files:

From what I can see, the German translation in XWiki.SharePage uses $context.user (deprecated) instead of $xcontext.user.
This can easily be fixed by updating the translation in https://l10n.xwiki.org/

I’ll open a jira and fix it along with other discrepancies:

And several other problems.

I wonder why the english original uses the deprecated one too. So no wonder that it’s used in the translation. I will fix this on Weblate.

Hm, I tried it with a local translation:

myhomepage=$xwiki.getDocument($xcontext.user).display("first_name", "view", $xwiki.getDocument($xcontext.user).getObject("XWiki.XWikiUsers", 0))s Profil

Not working. Error messages stay the same.

So I won’t change anything in the german translation yet.
