Swedish translation

[zenkert]

Hi!
I plan to translate JoomlaLMS to Swedish.
As I understand it all the language files resides in the directory "languages".
Each language has it´s own directory.

I guess it´s fairly simple?

1. Make a copy of the f.i. english directory rename it "swedish".
2. Look trough all the php-files and translate words, phrases and sentences to swedish

For instance the following line in file "course_users_lang.php:
$JLMS_LANGUAGE['_JLMS_USERS_CSV_DELETE'] = "Delete users";
will be altered to:
$JLMS_LANGUAGE['_JLMS_USERS_CSV_DELETE'] = "Radera användare";

3. Then of course you have to pre run it to see if everything works and that the translation does not mess up with the design and lay-out of JoomlaLMS.

Is this the correct approach?

A couple of questions:
1. What about Swedish letters å,ä,ö how do you encode them?
2. Are there any changes you have to do somewhere else so JoomlaLMS will recognize the new language ?

A little simpler: Administrator BackEnd -> JoomlaLMS -> configuration -> languages. Just export the english language, translate it and export again.
If you would like to provide your translation to us, just share it on this board and we will include it to our next release. If you are interesting in it, then after 1-2 week i can provide for our english language from upcoming 1.0.5 for translation.

For instance the following line in file "course_users_lang.php:
$JLMS_LANGUAGE['_JLMS_USERS_CSV_DELETE'] = "Delete users";
will be altered to:
$JLMS_LANGUAGE['_JLMS_USERS_CSV_DELETE'] = "Radera användare";

Yes, this is correct.

1. What about Swedish letters å,ä,ö how do you encode them?

The most of european translations are in ISO-8859 encoding

2. Are there any changes you have to do somewhere else so JoomlaLMS will recognize the new language ?

Record about new language should be listed in the DB (language import doing it). Make sure that during importing name of zip and name of nested language folder are the same.

OK - thats simpler and then it all goes correctly into the LMS.

I don´t know when the translation can be ready. And maybe I will not translate all parts of it in the beginning. We´ll see about that. It´s a matter of time and if I can get a helping hand from a colleague here.


But if we make a total translation, I´m more than willing to share it here on the board.

When is the release of the 1.0.5 LMS planned?

Have you been able to translate to swedish?

Unfortunately we are not able to provide Swedish version of LMS at the moment. Niether we don't have official reseller in this country who might be able to do that so far. If i get any references i will post here.
It is possible to translate JoomlaLMS yourself.
Language files you can download from the backend languages section.

Hi,

I have been working with the translation for some time and I will publish it as soon as possible. However since JoomlaLMS is a complex and huge component it is important o check all translations details in order to get a fully understandable interface to the student and administrator/teacher.

I have been working with software translations for Swedish language since 1988 so I am quite experienced in this matter.

I am also aiming at becoming a LMS reseller in Sweden which means it will be available with Swedish support and training soon.

Please feel free to contact me at any time.
