Oempro4 in Your Language
From Octeth Wiki / Documentation
Oempro4 is designed to be running in multi-language mode. You can translate Oempro4 into any language and select different languages for different users.
Translating Oempro4
Oempro4 can be translated into different languages in two ways:
- Manual translation by editing language files
- Translating by using Translator Plug-In
If you prefer translating manually, you will need to copy the English language directory which can be found under /path_to_oempro4/data/languages/ with the name of "en". The language directory name must be the standard two-characters code of the target language. For example, if you are planning to translate Oempro4 into German, the new language directory must be created as "de". Once you copied "en" directory (including all files inside) to the new directory, you will need to use a text editor to open every file included in the language directory and edit them.
Example line from the language file:
$ArrayLanguageStrings['Screen']['0001'] = 'New Subscriber List';
Just translate the sentence/word on the right side. Do NOT change any variable name or index number which can be found on the left side.
Every file inside the language directory represents a screen or process.
If you prefer using Translator Plug-In, your work will be easier. Translator Plug-In is integrated with Google Translator tool which will help you to translate English language strings to the target language with a single click.
Please refer to Octeth Add-On section for available languages. If you wish to contribute in translation of Oempro4, just get in touch with us.
Setting Different Language For Users
If you have set multiple languages in your Oempro4, you can assign different languages for each one of your users.
In user account information (User Area) or user edit screen (Admin Area), select the language you wish to use in the corresponding user area for that user.
