What does this do?

Creates Smarty - Data with information about the User and the Date of last modified the page you see.
How do I use it?

Just insert the tag into Template after content like: {lastmodified}

You can use the Smartyvariables as follow:
{$username} - the name of the user
{$first_name}- the first name of the user
{$last_name} - the last name of the user
{$email} - the email of the user
{$modified_date} - the last date, you can format it with smarty - controls
Examples:
{$modified_date|date_format}
{$modified_date|date_format:"%A, %B %e, %Y"}
{$modified_date|date_format:"%H:%M:%S"}
The rules are like strftime formatting. You can all use.

could you please upload your modules, and plugins into the downloads section so it is available in perpetuity, and easy for us to find without having to search the forums.

Thanks.

could you please upload your modules

Make an international download - page (like here in the forum) and i make uploads in german.

actually it is only good to english speaking peoples.

Hmm... what about finnish speaking, swedish speaking, thai speaking or korean speaking people? What do we do with the german upload/download section? I'm personally very happy with the situation that the pages are in english. I hate the situation when I search for something from the forums and get results that are from german threads...

Sorry for offtopic, but this certainly raised my blood pressure for some reason.

PS. Oh. by the way. If you create the german upload / download pages. Would you do same for finnish too?

We have boards in several languages , but only an english download - page.

Remove the boards in other languages as english and this cms will die.

If you want to have a rich offer of plugins and modules than we must have other languages as english.

My english is not the best and i can as example describe  my plugins better in german as in english.

Westis has made a solution  - very fine !!

On the other hand, if you explain your plugin only in German it basically means that all of us non german speaking would not never know anything about it, unless someone would translate it of course. If you really want to have rich offer in plugins and modules, the language must, unfortunately, be english. This way the modules, plugins and software will get much bigger audience and have the ability to get more users.

I see no problem with your english and can understand you well enough. in my opinion it is enough that a person can make him/herself understood.

I understand the need for forums in different languages. Although I also see problems with them. Still I think, that the actual website of the CMSMS has to be in english in order to get more people to use the system. Other option would be ofcourse the localization, but that will mean lots of work for someone...

PS. What do you think Linux would be, if language of the developer community would have been finnish?

On the other hand, if you explain your plugin only in english it basically means that all of us non english speaking would not never know anything about it, unless someone would translate it of course.

On the other hand, if you explain your plugin only in french it basically means that all of us non french speaking would not never know anything about it, unless someone would translate it of course.

etc. etc. etc. ....

That is all the same  - westis solution is ok - no more discussion about that is needed.

PS

german is in europe the most spoken language  - over  100.000.000 people are speaking this as her mother language.  Over 18 % off all other europeans are learning german as her second language.

in east - europe  german is the most spoken language and not english.

Europe ain't the world, piratos.

This is an English speaking website and forum which has very kindly offered specific sections for other languages. CMSMS strongly suports the diversity of other languages.

You may be surprised to discover that the most spoken languages in the world actually fall in this order:

1 Mandarin
2 Spanish
3 English
4 Arabic
5 Bengali
6 Hindi
7 Portuguese
8 Russian
9 Japanese
10 German
11 Wu
12 Malay, Indonesian
13 Korean
14 French

No one should have to deal with foreign language posts in the general forum. Please refer them to a language translation in the appropriate section. Please.

And US is not the middle of the earth.

He's from Australia.  That's about as from the US as you can get...

I think I'm doing my part here for localization and allowing other people to speak their mind in the their own language.  However..  keep in mind that most people have English as a second language.  Generally, it's the bridge language on the internet.  And, more importantly, everyone on the dev team understands it.

I know no other language.  Yes, I'm ignorant in that aspect.  Blame it on our school system here.  And, German is on the top of my list of languages I want to learn...

Anyway, my point is.  I'm trying to do my best to accomodate everyone with the resources I have at my disposal.  Time espeically being the hard thing to come by these days...

So, please, let's drop the argument.  Just tell me what you guys need to me to do, and if it doesn't require a ton of time (i.e. rewrite content for multi language), then I'll do it.

Thanks

Whoops!!!

I have no idea how I did that.  I just hit quote.

Sorry!!!

Talking to Piratos is like talking ot a brick wall. You are a far to nice person to get hurt by his remarks.
He must have some real personality issues, look at what he wrote above. The last time somebody said those things about Germany being blabla my country was occupied for 5 years......

That is all the same  - westis solution is ok - no more discussion about that is needed.

it seems that all read only the things they would like to read.

Please, people, do as the lady asks. We'll see no more aggressivity here.

Love and mung beans to Patricia...and to you, too, Piratos.
