hi'

Have you created your two basic language in module administration ? If it's already done, do not forget to also create file (under the table, click on the link)

I used the XOOPS -tchinese so I added english as a based language. right 1

And I tried to add tchinese as a based language. It would NOT let me.

I add tchinese & schinese as a extend langage

Then I click on config file.

It does not seem to do anything

On the Base English the UTF flag show.

Not sure what I have done wrong

hi'

I think all you have done is correct.

1) To define basic language, here english and french

Resized Image


2) Second step, click on Add base language. Then a config file (xlanguage.php) is created in xoops_data/caches/xoops_cache/

In my example :
<?php
    $cached_config
['xlanguage_base'] = array(
        
"english"=>array(
            
"lang_name"=>"english",
            
"lang_desc"=>"",
            
"lang_charset"=>"ISO-8859-1",
            
"lang_code"=>"en",
            
"lang_image"=>"english.gif",
            
"lang_id"=>1,
            
"weight"=>1
        
),
        
"french"=>array(
            
"lang_name"=>"french",
            
"lang_desc"=>"",
            
"lang_charset"=>"ISO-8859-1",
            
"lang_code"=>"fr",
            
"lang_image"=>"noflag.gif",
            
"lang_id"=>2,
            
"weight"=>1
        
),
    );
?>

I hope it helps.

It doesn't seem it will take the 2nd base language & extend language

Even if change the flag... it will not change. I try to delete it.. It will not delete the english base neither.

I try it so many time


<?php
$cached_config['xlanguage_base'] = array(
"english"=>array(
"lang_name"=>"english",
"lang_desc"=>"English",
"lang_charset"=>"iso-8859-1",
"lang_code"=>"en",
"lang_image"=>"noflag.gif",
"lang_id"=>1,
"weight"=>1
),
);
?>

hi'

May be some trouble with Chinese charset ?
What do you enter instead of ISO-8859-1 ?
Have you try Chinese support forums ?
