In XOOPS 2.3.3 D.J added new localisation system for themes .
now you can have one local css and local java file for each language in themes . also you can have a local language file for each theme .

in morphogenesis themes we have one hack for add theme.php in language folder .now you can add your language file in
themes/morphogenesis/language/<lang-name>/main.php

I update morphogenesis package and add language files in the theme .
you can download from here
http://xoopspersian.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xoopspersian/themes/template/morphogenesis/

please use new localisation system for design your themes.
( work in XOOPS 2.3.3 and upper !! )

you can add image link in local style ( you have to add your image in your language folder )

why add language files to a theme? they aren't actually part of a theme, they are language files, that's what the language folder is for. so now you have 2 places where you upload languages? 2 places with class files, and so on. nice and confusing for the newbies. what next? 2 includes and 2 kernel folders aswell?

hi,

@icomuser : tell me how do you manage to get a navbar in several languages ? And if you need some new defines to put in your theme ?

So, having 1 more file (called theme.php) for languages may be very useful.

It's not required, just something that you can use : if you need and if you use themes based on morphogenesis templates.

there already is

language/<language>/theme.php or even global.php

having 2 language folders is counter productive.

the point is, there's already a language folder, so why create another new language folder?

if the point is to add custom language defines for themes, then create a custom language folder that is actually located in the language folder. that way you keep everything together..and a newbie doesn't have to scour through multiple directories in order to find a language define that he might want to change.. if they're all in 1 place, then all he needs to do is look in the logical place (the folder named languages)

Sorry, my english is very poor.

But I will try to explain a little more, basing on my own experience.

When I share a theme (morhpogenesis only, don't know other way to do), users had to do two things :
- hack core, by editing www/include/common.php file
- add theme.php file, in www/language/.../

So, now I can share theme :
- without hacking core
- with theme.php file

Then, theme is ready to use


(I repeat to be clear : it only concerns morphogenesis themes)
