Sorry I know very little about drupal but i did have a site, and i want to have chinese there.

I downloaded the package, and I found a file .po.

I put this file in the module" folder.....but seems I'm wrong....where i should put this PO file? usually some other CMS has a LANG folder...but drupal seems not...

Servus.

The .po file has to be imported using
administer : localization

There's a link for importing .po files from the local disk and you have to decide whether to override existing terms (of that language) or just to add differences.

Thank you for much Norbert!
I've already put Chinese in my site.

Every thing looks fine except:

I cannot put Chinese as my site's name. Right now, I'm using www.v-learn.org, if I add a Chinese name there, it would remove the whole site name....could you enlighten me on that?

thank you again!

Sorry, I have no experience with non-latin localizations, so I can't tell you anything.

However, get into the theme's page.tpl.php and replace the PHP print statement with "just the sitename" using whatever character set seems appropriate. This "hardwiring" should work.

Many thanks! by the way, I like like "form follows function", yet, does function shape form from the other direction? :)
