Hello,,
i been searching the forums and the admin panel to see how we could translate the channels that we have created, but with no success,,
so please how its done ??

Hi,
it doesn't have an feature to translate the channels to several languages, just the theme messages and elements.
If you want to achieve it, I can help you, but you would need to edit every language every time you add an new category.

[AvuY]

yes i need to do it please.

ok, open lib/functions.php and find:

   

Code Select Expand

$label = '<a href="'.channel_url($cat->id, $cat->name).'" title="'. stripslashes($cat->name).'"><img src="'.thumb_fix($cat->picture, true, 23, 23).'" class="cat-menu-img"/>'. stripslashes($cat->name).'</a>';

Replace it with:

      

Code Select Expand

$label = '<a href="'.channel_url($cat->id, $cat->name).'" title="'. _html($cat->name).'"><img src="'.thumb_fix($cat->picture, true, 23, 23).'" class="cat-menu-img"/>'. _html(_lang($cat->name)).'</a>';

Now you should have the channels name in every edit lang, AFTER you visit the site in every language and the tools -> clean cache , also use clean cache after editing the languages.

Thanks alot buddy, works perfectly now.. BUT i need your help with one more issue,,
when you click the language icon to change the website language all works great and the language is changed.. but once its changed you cant get back to the main "primary" language since clicking the language icon again shows the current "active" language .

Regards.

Let me take an wild guess and say the "English" language does not exist in the list of languages.
Click Create lang add English , en and then just click the "Create language".

PHPVibe by default has no language. Just the english "backbone", so you can create it with 2 texts and 1 click.

Thanks a lot buddy...

is it possible to hide the active language from the list ??
right now the active language is also shown in the list..

In tpl/main/tpl.globals.php you can change:

Code Select Expand

foreach($row as $l) {
$menu .= '<li><a href="'.canonical().'&clang='.$l->lang_code.'">'.$l->lang_name.'</a></li>';
if($l->lang_code == current_lang()) {$cr = $l->lang_name;}
}

to

Code Select Expand

foreach($row as $l) {
if($l->lang_code !== current_lang()) {
$menu .= '<li><a href="'.canonical().'&clang='.$l->lang_code.'">'.$l->lang_name.'</a></li>';
if($l->lang_code == current_lang()) {$cr = $l->lang_name;}
}

}

Didn't test, but it should work.
