[SOLVED] Translations and language pack was created by siwayjoomla
Hi all,
It is a question about the "best practice" with custom translations.
I created a custom field with a language string. If I add it to the regular language file (CB default_language, or fr-fr), it is well translated.
Then I tried to create a language pack to store my "custom translations" (in order to keep the original files on one side, and my pack on other side).
I managed to install it as a CB plugin. But it does not translate the language strings.
So my question are :
- What is the right way to deal with this ?
-- Should I store the transaltions on the "original" translation files
-- How to declare a translation pack to be linked to a language (fr-FR by example)
I ckecked the documentations and the forum, but I could not find the answer to those questions. May be I did not check it well, and if so, just prodide me the link to the right documentation (or forum), I do not want to bother you with already answered questions.
Thank you,
Nicolas

Always translate language plugins. You should avoid translating default_language. If you need to adjust English strings or add English strings you should download the English language plugin below.

The reason for this is when you update CB we replace the default_language files with new ones so on update of CB you'd lose all your changes with no way to recover except for a backup. You can find more details on language usage below.
