[Obsolete] Translating Textpattern to ...

kusor · 2005-08-19 15:21:49

If you want to enjoy Textpattern in your own language, these are the steps to follow:

Download the latest version of en-gb.txt file from http://rpc.textpattern.com/lang/en-gb.txt
Translate it to your own language and post a reply to this topic, where you indicate an url to download the translated file, which should be named with the proper language code, followed by .txt
Add the name of your language using your own language on that post too.

We’re subscribed to this topic, so, when you post here, we will install the language file, add the required help terms and create a translator account for you, in order to continue translating the language and the help with the upcoming updates.

Slovak translation (Slovenčina):

http://www.izsak.net/textpattern/lang/sk-sk.txt

From version @version 4.0;1125923601

Hi,

please, don’t use this language file, bacause I haven’t included #@sections and keys are in bad order.

Thanks.

izsak, this is only meant for translations into languages that are not already available.

Every language usually has a translator responsible for it. If any of the available languages are not updated any longer, or somewould would like to help or enhance a translation, it’s best to get in touch with the translator and coordinate any changes first.

Thanks for your notice.

Where can I find list of official translators?

I’ve submitted the first slovak translation. At the end of july Dean contacted me about the transaltion. I’ve answered him that I wish to be official slovak translator but Dean never answered me. I haven’t known about http://rpc.textpattern.com/lang/ page so I haven’t known that new version of slovak translation is there.

Sencer · 2005-09-17 17:04:56

Oh my – now I feel stupid. You are the original translator! Sorry about the confusion on my part.

E-Mail with more details is on the way…

maijs · 2005-09-27 12:15:51

Ok, here goes another translation – Latvian.

lv-lv (Latviešu)

Download here

Every string is translated, though one thing I noticed during installation: none of ‘Next’ buttons were translated since <code>setup-langs.php</code> does not contain key ‘next’ in arrays (that applies to all languages).

Note: translated from #@version 4.0;1125923601

Sorry maijs, but cannot download the file. Can you mail it to me, please?

Perhaps I should have posted in this thread first instead of opening a new topic, but anyway here it goes:

I’ve had to translate TXP into Catalan for a project and the ca-es.txt file is here: http://www.xenoid.net/ca-es.txt (Catalan = Català).

I’ve tried to follow throughout the official guidelines for translating software into catalan. Accents and such have been encoded as entities, and they look good. However, there’s a problem with other foreign characters (i. e., Greek, Czech…) and also where the translation appears in a drop-down menu. I’ve been searching the boards for encoding instructions, but the only hint I’ve found is that the file should be encoded in utf-8.

So far I’ve done it in Wordpad, and I don’t know how to utf-8 encode a txt file. Should I use another kind of text editor maybe? Any help appreciated.

kusor · 2005-10-11 22:12:01

Hello, Jordi.

There are many editors with utf-8 support, for example, http://www.crimsoneditor.com/ or http://www.jedit.org/ among others. Ask google for more help to find your tool.

About your file, just replace the entities by their characters and send it to me. There is no problem for me to encode that, since I know you’re using iso-8859-1.

By the way, I’m assuming you want to get involved on the Textpattern translation team, isn’t it?.

Feel free to use this forum to send me the mail with the file and your decision.

And welcome on board!.

jordi · 2005-10-12 11:06:19

thanks Kusor, I’ll be emailing you in a few days with the new txt file. And yes, count me in for the translation team.

Hi,

I’ve made some minor grammatical changes to the Slovak file. New updated file, called sk-sk.txt, is located at http://textpattern.sk/textpattern/lang/

ghareeb · 2005-10-24 21:11:14

Kuser;
I would like to start the Arabic translation; Do you have any one who started it already? should I post a message-subject for that end?

kusor · 2005-10-24 21:21:29

No ghareeb, nobody doing the Arabic translation.

You don’t need to start a new topic to start it. Just start the translation and post something here when you’ve got it finished. Remember, required data are:

The file en-gb.txt translated to your language and renamed to the properly language code.
The name of your language in your language.

Btw, if you want, feel free to directly email me using this forum functionality for that purpose.

Come on, if you finish it during this week …

Brazilian Portuguese translation (Português do Brasil)

pt-br – Português (BR) – Português do Brasil – pt_BR – Text in UTF-8
You can take the pt-br.txt file at this here . It’s made over the last version of the en-gb.txt (01. November 2005 10:25:47 GMT). However, many texts as the help files or some combo box stay outsite of the pt-pt.txt. So I would like to offer my self as voluntary to keep a Brazilian version of the TXP.
