[SOLVED] Language Support Plugins

Hi all,

I may need to set up my Joomla! site (with CB, CBsubs and CBGroup Jive) to be multilingual at some point. Quick question and I apologize in advance if this is a silly thing to ask, but would the language plugins on the site here www.joomlapolis.com/cb-solutions/directory/languages/cb-languages/page1 work for ALL versions of CB? So for instance, if I wanted to install Chinese language support, would the "Simplified Chinese Language Plugin for CB1.1" work for the most recent version of CB as well?

Also, I'm assuming that installing this plugin and setting that language as default would mean all core CB features (forms etc) would be in that language? Would I also need to install the corresponding Joomla! language packs for the entire site to work smoothly in different languages?

Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide on this one! :cheer:

As of CB 2.0 the language plugins have changed in content and structure.

Thanks Nick. It appears that Chinese is not on the list of 2.0 language plugins. From what you are saying in terms of the plugin structure/content changing, I'm also assuming then that the Chinese language plugin for CB 1.8 would not work with the current release of CB - - am I right?

Correct.

You should join the CB 2.0 transifex Chinese project and help with translations.
We pickup all 100% translated projects from transifex and make new CB 2.0+ compatible plugins every week.

Hi Nick, thanks for responding so quickly. I'm not that fluent in Chinese to be honest, but would be glad to help with other languages - - perhaps Hindi, hehe, if there is ever a project devoted to that language. Otherwise, I'll just have to wait until I improve my Chinese abilities! ;)

See the translation languages here: www.transifex.com/projects/p/cb/ You can suggest additional languages, as well!
