Adding Language Packs to 2.7.00
Feb 18th, 2016 at 3:59pm
Mark & QuoteQuote  
Edited:
In order to add language packs before using Setup or Convert, the 'add language packs as a mod' has been dropped. Language packs should simply be uploaded to the Languages folder. This will allow users to choose that language for Setup and Convert. The additional Language dropdown information has been moved to Settings.pm


2.7.00 has an additional step for adding a Language Pack so that the new folders are added YaBMod's folder list and the Languages/Lang.lng file (new to 2.7.00) has the new information for the Language dropdowns.

Here is a copy of the Add_German Mod:
Code
Select All
<id>
 Add German Language for YaBB 2.7.00
 </id>

 <version>
 0.1
 </version>

 <mod info>
 This mod adds the internal references for the German Language Pack.
 Note: The German Language pack must be uploaded first.

 Version History
 ---------------
 0.1 - First release - Feb 18, 2016

 Instructions:

 Apply the mod using YaBMod.

I figure some people will choose only one version of German. So I just did the German rather than both German and German_Du.

I wonder if I just do a German abstract and generalize.

German
Hier können sie

German Du
Hier kannst du

Universal
Hier kann man

Whatever you think is best - you're our expert for German. We have no stats (as far as I know) on how many forums install just one of the German versions or how many people choose German Du over German (or vice versa) when given a choice.

@ Dandello

must be changed for the German translation of something here?


Code
Select All
$englishadminlngver = 'YaBB 2.7.00 $Revision: 1688 $';
 @englishadminlngmods = ();
 if (@englishadminlngmods) {
     $englishadminlngmods = 1;
 }
 if ( $action eq 'detailedversion' && $language ne 'English' ) { return 1; } 

  

if (idea == 'none') {use (manuals) && (Google | | search)}

 }

For each German language file replace the
Code
Select All
$englishxxxlngver 

with the lowercase name of the specific language folder.

I thought to myself. But then quite German and German_Du would be possible.

Yes, German and German_Du would be very possible. The question really is, is there a real need for two different German language packs? As the translator, it's your call.

Here are the first german files. It is not yet translated, since I do not yet understand the connections.
Problem: As a guest, I see everything in German language, so can switch to German in the pull-down. After the login everything is only in English. In the forum setting, I can change to German, but it remains English, even if then German stands. If I want to change the control center in German, I get the following error message

Quote:
Untrapped Error :
Undefined subroutine &main::getMailFiles called at Sources/Notify.pm line 349.


I do not know why.

Go to:
http://yabbtest.de

Your admin profile is saved there.

German_Du is not available yet.

Edited:
Deleted, to many errors

Thanks for the catch - in Notify.pm change both 'getMailFiles()' to 'get_mail_files()'.

There are still a lot of glitches in 2.7.0 due to trying to bring it to the higher standards of no subroutines or variables having mixed upper and lowercase letters in their names.

Also, here:
Code (Perl)
Select All
<add before>
     $add_german = q~Add German Language for YaBB 2.7.00|Dandello|This mod adds the internal references for the German Language Pack.|0.1|2/17/2016~;
     push @installed_mods, $add_german;
 </add before> 



Needs to be
Code (Perl)
Select All
<add before>
     my $add_german = q~Add German Language for YaBB 2.7.00|Dandello|This mod adds the internal references for the German Language Pack.|0.1|2/17/2016~;
     push @installed_mods, $add_german;
 </add before> 



Strict requires all variables to be 'owned' explicitly.

In the language files, many of the variables have been removed and replaced with {yabb variable} so the language files won't throw a lot of errors and warnings to the server error log.

Edited:
I'm going away from nt desk for the day but tomorrow I'll see if I can sort out the other issues you've described.
