How do I change the "remember/forget" text at comment form?
As it says on the subject..
We have a French website and everything on the site should be on French, since the French seem to be pretty picky about their language ;)
I could change the other elements, but the Remember/Forget-text and the preview and submit buttons are still in English and I don’t know how to change them..

Here’s the whole comment form at this point:

You need to switch your admin-side language to French, that will handle all public-side tags that output language as well. If you want to use different languages from admin-side and public-side you need a small plugin that will load the other language for one of the two areas.

line 593 of the file en-gb.txt in folder lang says
remember => Remember
maybe you could try changing that, but it is just a guess. And aswell i don’t know, if that file is subject to change on language and/or textpattern updates – you might end up having to manually re-edit all your custom changes.
sencer, what’s the french equivalent to en-gb.txt? or is french only stored in the DB?

Did you full yunderstand my suggestion? Is there a specific reason why you cannot switch textpattern to french language?
I don’t know if someone made it into a plugin, I had posted the snippet a couple of times on the forum, try searching for it, if you actually need it.
jayrope: All languages are stored in the DB. The admin-UI for languages, and the README in the lang-folder are actually quite explicit about how things work…

Well, then the problem still remains as it was the last time someone brought this up – The users of the site are French and I’m Finnish – I don’t know one word about French :D
It’s not impossible to use the admin section with the French language, but it sure does make it harder since I don’t know what anything means :P
I was hoping someone already made a plugin that would make it possible to make the site itself language X and the administration language Y :/

Change the language to french, then open any admin-side plugin and add this:
$GLOBALS['textarray']=load_lang('en-gb');
