Multilang?

Yes, we were debugging the main site and we left it on, we're about to update it again so we'll leave it for a bit longer too.

Great - let me know when you have the files and I'll make sure the encoding of them is correct.

Yeah will do it. But I have seen there are some modifications for 1.0.9 - want to add these to lang files before.

Yeah \o/ German language files. *woop woop*

Hi cyberman

I appreciate the time you've taken to get back to me. No worries about how long it's taken, but I hope things are going better for you now.

While we don't have an official diff facility here yet, it will be implemented shortly. I'm currently working on converting phpBB 3.1 and it's about 60 (ish) % complete at the moment just on raw data.

Once I've finished this then I will make it my priority to create a diff-facility on the panther website. In the meantime, the new language system does parse the *.po files and generate a cache for them in PHP arrays. This can be found in the folder cache/languages/*/*.php.

While it isn't exactly the same as the older versions as it's based on the new caching system, I do hope that this is slightly easier for now. Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help or make it easier in any way.

By the way - some of current .po files (en) are ANSI encoded...

CSS in style.css was DOS formatted too.

That's wonderful news! I've been trying to add multiple language packs to try with the new language locales (en_GB .etc.), this will be a great addition. Thank you very much!

I'll test this with the latest version and keep you up-to-date with everything that does/doesn't work. Thank you - and have a wonderful Christmas!

Very, very few. Though the release has only really just been started. But I wouldn't expect loads unless we have to this version for something.

It's more of an optimisation and extended functionality (e.g. config.xml for styles, language display names .etc.) rather than new features such as the gallery avatar which will be added.

It will be focussing on the templates slightly, but mainly on the PHP code. I'll also try with the Persian language pack I have and keep you up to date.

And I can also promise the diff tool on this website for language files before the next release is made.

That would be fantastic. I know [user]weks[/user] was doing a language pack for French, I'm not sure how far it ever got though as he's also essentially "all" our styling team.

Hopefully it will be finished by the next release. By that time we'll have a dedicated section on our website up and running to handle language pack uploads.

Unfortunately there is no official diff facility yet, this will be done in the re-design of our website, which should be happening shortly. It will point out exactly which lines in all the language files have changed though, without needing to upload anything and just by selecting the version to compare to/from.

That is the current plan, but it will definitely be very easy to compare language packs when added - however it is done in the end.

Ok, convert.po I've translated was located inside /lang/de ... now I know convert.po must be moved to /convert/languages/de

Works now...
