how to delete languages

[martind]

hi,

i did my first attempt with the new language-features today and have some troubles with it. selfmade, i think, haven`t carefully read the forum entry for this, i must admit.

1st i overzealously added a new language "Deutsch" with no files. this gave me a "blank" entry in languages list.

2nd i added a new language "de-de" and dropped in nicos (thank you for this) translation zip, this brought me a third entry "Deutsch", but the assets/files directory hadn`t proper rights, pw gave me feedback for this, so i chmoded, tried again and it seemed to work but when i choose Deutsch in the profile everythink keeps in english. Maybe the zip wasn`t extracted? so now, I can`t find an option to edit or delete the installed languages, shouldn`t this be possible under setup>languages? i assume my first ugly attempt hast caused this fact.

any tips what to do? uninstall the module and try everything again?

Martind, something's not quite right here, as your screenshot shows columns for "body, headline, summary, title". It should say "name, title, language translation files". I suggest uninstalling the LanguageSupport module and then try installing it again. But first check that you don't already have a template in your system called "language" or "languages". The installer should recognize this if you do, but double check just in case.

Also, your system may not support extraction of ZIP files, so you'll want to unzip the language pack first and then drag in all the .json files instead.

thanks, it works now. un- and reinstalled language module and language fields.

Found it hard and long winded to uninstall pw languages. Really excited about using it but i wouldnt recommend doing it on a new site unless you know your going to use it.
