TOPIC: joomfish not translating joomlacomment

Hi

I have the languages in joomlacomment set to auto-detect but when changing languages with joomfish (Japanese and English) nothing changes. The language is always in English

joomla 1.5.9
joomfish 2.0.1
comment 3.26
sh4040sef 1.0.19_Beta

Thanks in advance

What is the name of the Japanese file?

Thanks for the quick reply
I am not sure I understand, which Japanese file is that?
The joomla core language file?

perhaps joomfish expect a file that is called japanese and the jocomment file is called something else and that is why it is not working.

I have the same problem - when language is set to auto-detect, joomlacomment displays always english.

As I understand, Joomfish expects en-GB (or any other language code) files, but in joomlacomment the language file is english.php

Is there any solution for this problem?

I am using
Joomla 1.5.11
Joomfish 2.0.3
!JoComment 4.0 alpha3

Hi,

1 go to the folder : joomlacomponentscom_commentjoscomment
2 open the file utils.php with a text editor
3 look for this expression : $language = 'english.php';

you will find something like that:
***********************************************************************
case 'ar-DZ':
$language = 'arabic.php';
break;
case 'bg-BG':
$language = 'bulgarian.php';
break;
case 'ca-ES':
$language = 'spanish.php';
break;

$language = 'czech.php';

$language = 'danish.php';

4 what you have to do now is to add these lines into the list above:

case 'xx-xx':
$language = 'your_language.php';
break;


xx-xx = the symbol of your language (like ar-DZ for Arabic, en-GB for English,...)
your-language.php = (like arabic.php, english.php,...)

don't forget to save your changes...good luck

Mimoun can we add this to beta2?

Hi,

I have tested this method with JoomlaComment 4.0 beta1 using my language wich is arabic and it worked.
I guess it will work with other versions of JoomlaComment.


In my last replay, the path of the file wich has to by modified may be not clear.
so, here it is again:
C: -> xampp -> htdocs -> joomla -> components -> com_comment -> joscomment -> utils.php

Great thank for your replaying Mimoun,
joomlacomment and joomfish language switching was solved!
