How to change to another language?

[vinceyang]

Hi all,
I want to change the language to Traditional Chinese(zh_TW)(include frontend and administration).
I'd spent few days to solve this issue.

The doc link
http://docs.cmsmadesimple.org/customizi ... ge-strings
==============

The initial administration language folder like

init folder list in admin

If I replace the en_US folder to zh_TW, right?

modify folder

But, the "--Add Me - xxxxx --" tag was showing

--Add Me - XXXXX --

It's meaning that cannot found lang parameter.

How can I do ?

Thanks!

There is no reason of replacing any files anywhere. There is a reason why languages are delivered in a manner of /lang/en_US.php and lang/ext/some_OTHER-LANG.php

You can easily switch your language in "Site Admin -> Global Settings" or for your user profile under "My Preferences -> User Preferences"

NCleanGrey is using:

Code: Select all

{cms_selflink dir="previous" label="Previous page: "}

So you can change text inside label='' to whatever you need.
Obviously translations aren't up to date, that's why some of language strings are missing, you could apply to http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/trad-chinese and help translating, if you got some spair time

Does anyone know how to change the long/short month name?

Perhaps this work for you : config.php
$config['locale'] = 'zh_TW.utf8';
