[Qgis-us-user] Need to find a translation for an error message

The error message "The layer path has changed and no longer matches what is indicated" means that the individual layer (data file) locations have been changed and no longer match the file paths originally saved in the project. When you move layers or map files to different folders (using your operating system, most commonly Windows Explorer) and then open a QGIS project that still uses those old file paths, you'll get this message.

I'm not sure exactly what the message says in English, but it means that QGIS cannot find the files needed to complete the map display; in other words, there is a pathing (referencing) issue.  The way to fix it is to correct the source path from within QGIS.  That is, you need to tell QGIS the new locations of those files that are being displayed in the map, or the map will no longer display properly.

Hello everyone,

I am a translator in France and I am currently translating a training course for a French institution. I have downloaded the QGIS software and have been using the official QGIS user documentation to find the right terms. However, an error message in French is giving me a hard time. As I am not myself attending this training course I do not have the resources to make the error and therefore know how it is written in English, it is a message received if you move layers and then open a QGS projetct. In French it says: "Le chemin des couches a changé et ne correspond plus à ce qui est indiqué dans le QGS"
Does anyone have an idea of what the software writes in English. If you have any suggestions it would be a great help.
Thank you all and have a nice day
Jessica Ball
