Going backwards from 2.2 to 2.1 - A question

[costa]

I installed 2.2 MS1 but have a problem. I NEED the Japanese language pack now which is not done. It IS done for 2.1. If I delete 2.2 and install 2.1 with language pack, can I keep the same database? Will I lose or corrupt info?

 

A speedy response would be appreciated

Thanks to all

No. There have been a lot of changes in the db since 2.1.

2.2 has many more features, much more stable and secure

I have the contacted Tamura on the Japanese site but no response. I have the people here to translate so I want to do it. However, I need some guidance. Which files? All? Just look for the English and put in the Japanese? Help would be appreciated. I will definately contribute it when done :D

Copy the includeslanguagesenglish folder to japanese along with copying the includeslanguagesenglish.php file to japanese.php. Open each file and translate the text to Japanese.

 

In Admin ~ Localization ~ Languages you will need to add Japanese along with providing a flag icon.

 

In Admin ~ Localization ~ Curriencies you will need to add the Yen.

 

If you also need the admin section to support Japanese then you will need to copy the adminincludeslanguagesenglish folder to japanese along with copying the adminincludeslanguagesenglish.php file to japanese.php. Then open each file and translate all of the text to Japanese.

 

I believe that covers it but I might have missed something.
