Hi,

Does anyone know wich file i should update? i wan't to do it hard-coded if possible.
I allready tried to upload .po translation files but it only translate the backend of drupal, not the webpages dates

thanks in advance

Hi,

If I use the language switcher, and I click on Spanish for example: does the whole website get translated into Spanish? Or can I have just a few pages translated i.e. a few nodes?

Thanks

Hi,

Is there anything I should consider if I translate the site into Arabic please?

When I created a Japanese micro-site a while back, I had to use a converter to have a code to copy and paste in the content.

Do I need to do the same for the Arabic language for example? Or else?

Thanks a lot

I am not new to Drupal but this is the first time I've had a project where I've needed to implement a multi-lingual website (English & French). I've been searching the forum, module issues, and Google, but still have some questions. I'm obviously using the latest Drupal 6 version of the i18n module and Translate Management Dashboard.

MENU

What's the best way to translate menu items? I've reviewed this page (http://drupal-translation.com/content/adding-menu) and the 2nd method is the only option that seems to work for me. I can't help but think that there is a better way then having duplicate menu item (ie. English menu item linked to the English node and French menu item linked to the French node).

I tried the option of leaving the Menu Item Language set to 'All Languages' and checking the checkbox 'Enable node translation' and it works to translate the menu item and links to the french node, but the node path does not get the alias in the french (ie. shows http://www.domain.com/fr/node/1 in the URL instead of http://www.domain.com/fr/accueil).

BLOCKS

Is there any easy way to switch from the English Version to the French Version of the block? Similar to the 'Translate' Tab for nodes.

Hi,

I use CKeditor Module (without the wysiwyg api) and the spell Checker is activated in a domain access context.
The language is simply set this way :
config.scayt_sLang = Drupal.settings.ckeditor.domain_language
where Drupal.settings.ckeditor.domain_language is simply the code language (vi, fr, en ...) that is extracted from the global language variable.

In my user edit page, I have secondary tabs for editing "Profile" and "My newsletters". When I view the site in French, these tabs are not translated.
