Well, the change in the global.php works fine for most of the XOOPS main part, but not in the transitions files. ie: files with messages: we transferring, please wait, etc.

Any help

Blackpet hello,

I'm Greek too and a long time XOOPS user. I've worked on a Greek translation of XOOPS 2.x myself but gave up due to lack of free time. Right now, I'm in Italy (Florence) where I'm studuying so it's difficult for me to continue working on that.

As far as this issue is concerned, did you translate the modules language files as well? If not, you will have to do that also, in order for every module to display the Greek character set (ISO-8859-7) properly. To do that you will simply have to create a /language/greek directory inside your modules' ones.

If you've done that already and it didn't work, I don't know what else to suggest Currently I'm running a site in English only (see my sig), so Greek isn't an option. PM me here or better yet at my site for more info

Xairetismous apo Italia!

That's the problem. I translated as well some of the modules and in the transition pages (ie, when you logout of the site, etc) the greek characters are displayed in a not recognizable character set.
It seems that I am stacked.
Thanks anyway.

Take Care

I think that I figured out, what causes the problem.
First of all the messages are parsed through a template page "system_redirect.html)
the html code "" uses a XOOPS global variable that in my case retains the value windows-1250, evenif I have declared through the global.php file the value to be: charset ISO-8859-7.
Of course I can hardcode this file but I don't believe that this is the right way to address problems.
While I am searching, any help is more than welcome
