Hi there,

I would like to have my site in German language aswell as English, and I would like to know what I have to do in order to do this.

I have downloaded the module 'xlanguage' and it seems that there is no automatic translator (I wish there was!),

I am totally unsure of the steps I need to take,
I reckon I will have to replace some English words with German somewhere along the line!

thanks for any advice,
Rob

If you have the complete german files, then you can switch to German, but this does not mean that you will have german content!

With the language hacks and a special markup you can write additional german content.

Please, please do NOT use automatic translators. Noone will take you serious. When I am in a bad mood I use the Google tool to translate xoops.org. This will give me always a good laugh. Example? Your name in your post was translated to the german equivalent Fruchtsirup which means (don't know the correct word) Fruitsyrup.

I too have opted to use the xLanguage module, and understand the limitations of the module.

My problem is that I can't speak german myself, and can't find the core german language files
(to be installed in XOOPS_ROOT_PATH/languages )

Could anyone post the link ??

Thanks

Thanks Frank

Just for the record, I used the following download from myxoops.org.

Sprachfiles für XOOPS 2.2 - Sie

I'm currently on version 2.0.x, but the file seems to work fine.
