Hey Alex,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply,

May I know do you only translated this language file? -> JoomlaFolder/language/zh-TW/zh-TW.com_easysocial.ini

If yes and got other language as well, can you do a backup for these language file then install "Chinese (Taiwan)" language from backend > Easysocial > language > click purge cache button > click discover button > select "Chinese (Taiwan)" > click update/install button

After installed, then replace back to your language backup file as well and see how it goes?

Hi Arlex

Thanks for getting back to me, I have created the translated easy social file you mention above, zh-TW.com_easysocial.ini

This was created from en-GB.com_easysocial.ini

Previously when I tested just a few word's, it worked by just placing the new zh-TW.com_easysocial.ini in the JoomlaFolder/language/zh-TW

I will give what you have suggested a try and come back to you.

How about when I am ready to install the new language for easy blog, will this also be the same process?

Thanks

Hi Arlex

I did everything that you suggested, but it hasn't changed the language yet?

I cleared the site cache as well, but no joy so far.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Thanks

Hi again

So looking at my files after installing the Chinese Taiwan language from the back end of easy social, I now have many files for easy social that claim they are zh-TW but when you open them they are still in English.

Are these getting in the way of the main easysocial.ini file, or does this one take priority?

Ok, sorry for all the seperate posts.

I have now uploaded the Easy Blog translation to the JoomlaFolder/language/zh-TW

But again there is nothing coming through on the site, I have cleared the cache since uploading it, but nothing has come through.

Is there something I am missing, surely this should be a straight forward process?

Thanks for your help.

Hey Alex,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply, after checked long time ago, it seems like following language string missing the double quote " and 's

COM_EASYSOCIAL_PROFILE_NOTIFICATION_SETTINGS_CONVERSATIONS_INVITE=被邀請至對話"

APP_GROUP_STORY_USER_POSTED_COMMENT_ON_USERS_POST="%1$在{b}%2$s's{/b} 的貼文中發表了評論"

APP_USER_EVENTS_GUESTS_USER_LIKES_YOUR_UPDATE_NOTGOING_PLURAL="%1$s位用戶讚了你不出席活動的動態。





COM_EASYSOCIAL_PROFILE_NOTIFICATION_SETTINGS_CONVERSATIONS_INVITE="被邀請至對話"

APP_GROUP_STORY_USER_POSTED_COMMENT_ON_USERS_POST="%1$s 在 {b}%2$s{/b} 的貼文中發表了評論"

APP_USER_EVENTS_GUESTS_USER_LIKES_YOUR_UPDATE_NOTGOING_PLURAL="%1$s位用戶讚了你不出席活動的動態。"

After I corrected, it work fine now.

Yes, for the Easyblog you can doing the same step as what you did on your site Easysocial.

Hi Arlex

Thanks so much for sorting this, does that mean then if even one line is not perfect then the whole document is not used?

Also while I am here, I see most of the easy social is now in Chinese, but there are a few words here and there that are still in English. Do we need to translate all the other files that have been downloaded with the language pack?

Thanks

Hi again

So I have successfully allowed the easy blog translation, but again it seems as though there is a large part of the site that is not yet translated, do we again need to translate all the other files that come with the language pack?

Thanks

Yes, it would be best if you can follow my guideline here to install Chinese package through from backend > Easyblog/Easysocial > language > click purge cache button > click discover button > select "Chinese (Taiwan)" > click update/install button (need to backup your existing custom language file, if not it will overwrite it)

If some of the string still haven't get translated, perhaps you can provide us some screenshot so I can better have a check?

Ok, thanks Arlex, I will re-upload my translated file.

You're welcome. Keep us updated then.

Hi Arlex

So I updated the .com_easyblog.ini file from my back up, but now nothing on the blog page is showing in Chinese.

Again I have cleared the cache, but still nothing. Is it because maybe there is one wrong line in the document?

Also, can you have a look at the screen shot, it shows part of easy social that has been translated (I think this is the same) and yet on the actually stream it is still showing in English, if it is another part of the translation, I can have a look, but at first glance every thing on the translated file is as should be (unless there is quotation marks or something missing!)

Hey Alex,

I help you fixed 5~ 10 invalid language string into this file /home/admin/multikingdom.com/language/zh-TW/zh-TW.com_easyblog.ini , it should work fine now.

By the way, you point me that "Susan like this post" is actually coming from this language string, I've checked in your zh-TW/zh-TW.com_easysocial.ini do not have this following string, so I help you added it

COM_EASYSOCIAL_STREAM_LASTACTION_LIKE="%1$s liked this post."



COM_EASYSOCIAL_STREAM_LASTACTION_LIKE="%1$s赞这个公告"

Hope this help.

Hi Arlex

Indeed it has helped, hugely, thank you very much.

I am sorry to be a pain, but I have noticed that there are a couple of other errors

First can you please look at the groups page
https://www.multikingdom.com/index.php/tw/community/%E7%BE%A4%E7%B5%84.html

It seems that all the translation has been posted here for a some reason.

Also with in this page, there is a lot of English still, is there another section that I need to get translated?

Also I have noticed that many of the user actions are still being reported in English, such as the one the you added earlier.

Is there a separate section for all of these that we have missed or are they not in the string?

The following are not translated
Shared a link
Is reading the article
Social share
Is now friends with
Joined the group
Commented on this post
Unlocked the badge - then the names of the badges
Updated the picture in the group
Installed the application
Updated their profile picture
Updated their profile cover


There could be others but I have scrolled through a lot of the feed to search, so this could be it, but it seems as though there is a section we have missed, or is missing?

Then the video section of the easy social is completely in English, again is there a missing section for this?

In the video and groups area all the categories are in English, is this a separate section?

The search box also needs to be done, is this one of the module files that needs translating?

Finally, sorry, the profile area is missing a couple of changes
- please enter you name
- please enter a valid email address
- Tell us more about yourself, we are eager to get to know you better!

Sorry for the long list, I am happy to make these changes, if you can just tell me where I need to change things, we can certainly do it.

Then finally, finally, I have just been told that the 'liked this link' that you helped us translate is in fact in simplified Chinese rather than traditional, I will try and find this in the string and change it.

If you tell me how to add the string in, I can do this, if it is easier for you, I know you have helped me a lot already.

Here is link to a folder with all the screenshots in
http://www.screencast.com/t/OVkOPS31zG

Many thanks

So I just had a look at Easy Blog

It seems this is just about all done, certainly much more than easy social!

So just a few problems.

The first is the template names are still in English. Screenshot 148

The second is there is a yes / no button in the general setting for showing on the blog front page. Screenshot 149

Then finally, the block section now has some of the string writing on. Screenshot 150

Many thanks

Hey Alex,

I still investigate on your last 2 reply issue, I just finished your first reported issue :

First can you please look at the groups page
https://www.multikingdom.com/index.php/tw/community/%E7%BE%A4%E7%B5%84.html

It seems that all the translation has been posted here for a some reason.

Can you give it check that group page is it work fine now?

By the way, I will continuous tonight and tomorrow morning.

Hi Arlex

Thanks so much for all your help with this, getting it all working nicely.

I just had a look at the groups page and indeed the string has disappeared from there, but also all the Chinese has gone from Easy Social, now everything is back in English again, is there something gone wrong?

Alex

Hey Alex,

You're welcome.

I've checked again, it seems like all the issue is because missing double quote "

Can you check again is it work fine now?

Also I have noticed that many of the user actions are still being reported in English, such as the one the you added earlier.

Is there a separate section for all of these that we have missed or are they not in the string?

The following are not translated

There could be others but I have scrolled through a lot of the feed to search, so this could be it, but it seems as though there is a section we have missed, or is missing?

Can you give it a check again and see is it all the language string translated in Chinese now?
If you saw one of the language string is not translated, can you provide us the step how the faster way to find out that stream?

Then the video section of the easy social is completely in English, again is there a missing section for this?

It seems like missing a lot of video section language string in your Chinese language file, you can check my following language string is completely missing in your Chinese language file.

What I suggestion is can you do a backup again for these language file then install "Chinese (Taiwan)" language from backend > Easysocial > language > click purge cache button > click discover button > select "Chinese (Taiwan)" > click update/install button
, after you updated, all the video language string will updated in your Chinese language file, you just need to translate it back from English to Chinese.

In the video and groups area all the categories are in English, is this a separate section?

Unfortunately that was not possible to separate section, unless you assign custom language string for your video/event/group category from backend > Easysocial > group/event/video > select each category from group/event/video > e.g. http://screencast.com/t/993FIvw8v7f || http://screencast.com/t/a7GaTwP8z5 > then copy that custom language string into your :
- Chinese language file /home/admin/multikingdom.com/language/zh-TW/zh-TW.com_easysocial.ini[/b
- English language file [b]/home/admin/multikingdom.com/language/en-GB/en-GB.com_easysocial.ini[/b

The search box also needs to be done, is this one of the module files that needs translating?

Which search box you referring? Perhaps you can start a new thread for this? Because this thread is going too long and hard to follow up.

Finally, sorry, the profile area is missing a couple of changes
- please enter you name
- please enter a valid email address
- Tell us more about yourself, we are eager to get to know you better!

Sorry for the long list, I am happy to make these changes, if you can just tell me where I need to change things, we can certainly do it.

You can modify from these language string from [b]JoomlaFolder\administrator\language\en-GB\en-GB.com_easysocial.ini

COM_EASYSOCIAL_FIELDS_PROFILE_DEFAULT_YOUR_NAME_DESC="Please enter your name."

COM_EASYSOCIAL_FIELDS_PROFILE_DEFAULT_EMAIL_ADDRESS_DESC="Please enter a valid email address."

COM_EASYSOCIAL_FIELDS_PROFILE_DEFAULT_DETAILS_DESC="Tell us more about yourself, we are eager to get to know you better!"

Then finally, finally, I have just been told that the 'liked this link' that you helped us translate is in fact in simplified Chinese rather than traditional, I will try and find this in the string and change it.

You can find this language string from this file -> /home/admin/multikingdom.com/language/zh-TW/zh-TW.com_easyblog.ini

COM_EASYSOCIAL_STREAM_LASTACTION_LIKE="%1$s赞这个公告"

If you tell me how to add the string in, I can do this, if it is easier for you, I know you have helped me a lot already.

Thanks for understand, what I actually do is :
STEP 1 : if you see some of the language string is not get translated, try rename this English language file /home/admin/multikingdom.com/language/en-GB/en-GB.com_easysocial.ini then go back Easysocial dsahboard ( https://www.multikingdom.com/index.php/tw/community/ ), then check that language string again, it will display something like e.g. COM_EASYSOCIAL_STREAM_CONTEXT_TITLE_LINKS

STEP 2 : Copy this e.g. COM_EASYSOCIAL_STREAM_CONTEXT_TITLE_LINKS and open this English language file (/home/admin/multikingdom.com/language/en-GB/en-GB.com_easysocial.ini), find this string COM_EASYSOCIAL_STREAM_CONTEXT_TITLE_LINKS (it would be best if you can use some text-editor tool like sublime, notepad++) that will easy for you find that language string.

STEP 3 : After you find out that language string, then copy it and paste into /home/admin/multikingdom.com/language/zh-TW/zh-TW.com_easysocial.ini and translate it to Chinese

So I just had a look at Easy Blog

It seems this is just about all done, certainly much more than easy social!

So just a few problems.

The first is the template names are still in English. Screenshot 148

The second is there is a yes / no button in the general setting for showing on the blog front page. Screenshot 149

Then finally, the block section now has some of the string writing on. Screenshot 150

Unfortunately that was not possible to translate that post template title in other language, unless you modify this table `#__easyblog_post_templates` title columns from your database.

The rest of the untranslated string already solved in Easyblog 5.0.31. perhaps you can update to latest version and see how it goes?

Hi Arlex

Thanks very much for your help with all of this, most of the problems are now sorted.

I will start a new post for any further issues, as you say this is getting a bit long!

Many thanks

Thanks for updating Alex, glad that your issues are resolved now
