PerwiraUtama Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 Hi everyones, I am a newcomer in this forum, and really need some help. I have just installed osCommerce, and need to add a new language (Indonesian) into the system. Could anyone help me how to do it? Thans in advance. Quote
Jack_mcs Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 Search the contributions section for a language pack for indonesian. If there isn't one, go to your languages directory and create a copy of the english directory and english.php file and rename them as indonesian. You then need to edit all of the files in the new indonesian directory so the language is correct. Then go to admin->Localization->Languages and click on New Language and fill in the fields. Use on of the other languages as an exmple.

The new language (indonesian) text and the flag image (which I copied from the english directory) doesnt appear in the language box. But I still can find the link though, once I put the cursor over the language area. 2. All the right side boxes' width has changed. It just gone 15 times wider than the actual default size. The left side boxes are fine. I have tried to fix it by making a new define ('BOX_WIDTH_RIGHT', 125); in includes/application_top.php (I read this from the osCommerce manual) but it still didnt fix. Any suggestions? Thanks AUtomo Quote
Jack_mcs Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 If the image is missing, the browser will dislay the alt text so it could be the length of the text that is making it so wide. So you should work on getting the image problem fixed first. If english is working, then all you have to do is make copies to get a second language to work. You may have missed something in the copy.
