Translation HowTo

[Robert Zelník]

What should I do when I would like to start a new Language Pack? Could you please publish some HowTo?

Probably not all correct anymore, but basics are true: http://processwire.com/talk/topic/545-progress-on-processwire-22-and-overview-of-multi-language-support/page__st__40__p__5732#entry5732 It should help you get started. If not, feel free to ask help.

Thanks Antti.

I recommend starting with another language pack, like this one:

And then just replace the existing translations with your own.

I created an empty language pack.
Go to: Admin > Setup > Languages
Create a new language
Drag & Drop the attached zip-file in the Language Translation Files Field.
Start to edit the files.

empty-lang_pack_pw_3.0.41.zip

EDIT:
Obsolete in latest PW Versions. Create a language pack by your own.

1. Go to: Admin > Setup > Languages > Add New
2. Save
3. Press button: 'Find Files to Translate'
4. Select all files in the box 'Translatable files in /wire/'
5. Select files in the box 'Translatable files in /site/' which you want to add to your custom language pack
6. Press 'Submit'
7. Start translating
8. Download zip or csv file by pressing the related button at the bottom of the page where translatable files are listed. Done
