Guest Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I would only like to have the English files on my site for now. Is it ok to delete the Spanish and German files? I don't know either language so it would be hard to maintain them. Thanks Pegi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know either language so it would be hard to maintain them. Thanks Pegi I did this to our own site ages ago - works fine. It's more detailed than just deleting the language files and directories though - from memory there were a few tables you had to update as well. I also did the same to the countries and states tables - we really won't be trading with Azerbaijan anytime in the future, and as for any orders from Nigeria or post off boxes in Florida USA, scams the lot of them. It's also annoying for people to have to select from a drop down box with >100 countries in it. A nice side effect of this table clean up is your site might run a bit faster with a smaller database, and backing up is a bit more compact.
