JM Forum und MLE (problems with locale)

Post by pmw »

I'm creating a multi language website with MLE. But I have problems to integrate the JM Forum. I use the tags {JM_Forum lang="en_US"} and {JM_Forum lang="de_DE"} to integrate the forum. The start site of the forum comes correctly in English and accordingly in German. But all other sites of the forum are always in English. What have I to do to get all sites of the forum in the start language?

Didn't use JM Forum but usually i use MLE translate for module related strings.
{translate text=$somevar}

Ok! Forking a module has it's advantages and disadvantages... I thought I had disabled the old lang files except for the en_US.php which should be pretty much up to date. They still exist in both the XML and rar packages, the folder was just renamed (ext became _ext). These are the Forum Made Simple lang files NOT updated. But since there is not much change on the front end they should work. Just rename back _ext to ext. Anyway any feedback on this issue is appreciated, as it may help me and other potential translators to assert if these files are still usable, (less work translating :) ) or if the problem is something different.
Thanks.

This is not the problem. I have already renamed _ext to ext and updated the German language file. The problem is that the module doesn't transport the lang parameter to the further sites (instead the default locale will be used).

Ok, just to make sure you mean from one action to another?. I'll try to reproduce it and see what may be causing this issue.

Yes, this is exact what I mean.

Sorry - don't read what's discussed in here:
but using the Module call tag

Code: Select all

lang="de_DE"
does not work calling the germany language file with uploads module. What's my mistake?

Thanks again
