All the other paths are 'hardcoded'. So expect some serious simplification when I get done with Setup.pl. (Countered, of course, with complexification with adding language hashes.) Perfection is not possible. Excellence, however, is excellent. WWW IP Logged

Current thoughts: Have all the translated Setup language files in their own folder and then the new admin installs the full language pack using YaBMod before going to Convert.Have the admin install the additional Language packs the old fashioned way - by copying the files into the Language/* folder and Setup.pl and/or Settings_Main.pm creating the Lang.lng (or the data in Lang.lng gets put into Settings.pm) I think this would require that the 'language name' info be put into a .txt file in the Language/* folder so YaBB can find it. Thoughts? Suggestions? Perfection is not possible. Excellence, however, is excellent. WWW IP Logged

It's been forever since anyone took a hard look at Setup.pl and there's at least one more form item that needs to go in. (I took it out and now realize it probably needs to go back in. Oh well. : ) Once that's handled I can go back to working on the Mods and templates needed for this site, and the Mods Rucola wants. THEN this site gets converted to 2.7 (finally). Here I'll have an error log to catch more bugs with. Perfection is not possible. Excellence, however, is excellent. WWW IP Logged

I'm not finished with the German files yet. Well, I still need a week. Then the mods have to be made synonymous yes and finally I have two German languages. if (idea == 'none') {use (manuals) && (Google | | search)}if ($ answer == 0) {post (question)} IP Logged
