Hi,

How can I translate flash UI(buttons) in the frontend in my own language

tnx

TFU has a lang folder with xml files where . There you can simply translate .e.g. the english one to your language.
And then you have to extend JFU that you language is automatically used by extending the mapping table.
The easiest way is that you transplate the xml to your language and send it too me and I include it to JFU.

We want to change some of the interface language. Is this possible? We're using only tfu/lang/default.xml. I tried to make changes there by they don't propagate to the interface.

You have to read the readme in the folder.
the xml's for en,de and es are only delta files. the default is only the template with all strings.

Thanks for the reply. I did look at the Readme file, which indicates that the UI labels are not editable. However, the help file seemed to indicate is was possible. Also ran across some posts here that indicated changes could be made to the UI via the lang/*.xml. Is my understanding correct that the UI labels are not editable? Thanks for helping me get clear on this.

The readme does even explain how to do the change.
I don't know which readme you where reading.

--
The languages for english, german and spanish are only delta
files used by TFU because this 3 languages are build into the flash.
--

The can be used to overwrite language string of the flash.

Even in the en.xml it is explained:

-
Please note - This file is only a delta file!
English, German and Spanisch are build into the flash already!

Go to the default.xml and copy the text you want to change into this
file. The example below is only a dummy!

The readme file is tfu/lang/readme.txt. I have read the instructions there and in the default.xml file. As far as I can tell, I've executed the instructions correctly. We're using en.xml by default (no languages, so en is used by default, according to the documentation). My en.xml file looks like this:



Not sure what I missed, but these values are not displayed on the UI.

I just tested exactly your setting - and this works fine for me. if I enable the description mode.

Is the description mode enabled?

- Michael

Yes, Description Mode enabled.

strange. i'll check.

Michael,

One thing comes to mind. I had a conflict between JFU and another, larger, Joomla component. The conflict was with class Language. Since it was easier to resolve the problem in JFU than the other component, I changed class Language to class jfuLanguage in these files where appropriate:

/administrator/com_joomla_flash_uploader/joomla_flash_uploader.class.php
/administrator/com_joomla_flash_uploader/admin.joomla_flash_uploader.html.php
/components/com_joomla_flash_uploader/joomla_flash_uploader.html.php

To test the UI issue, I reset JFU to the original but still no luck. As far as I can tell my conflict fix is not interfering with the lang/*.xml files. Let me know if you think otherwise.

i have tracked down the plroblem - the xml is loaded for all files but not if nothing is set - i'll change this + i do the rename of the class as well.

i'll make a update tonight.

- Michael

Oh, that's great. Thanks! By the way, the component JFU had a conflict with was ECJC Online Shop, the Joomla version of osCommerce. It's a very big and complex component. The exact file was /administrator/components/com_ecjc_lang/admin.ecjc_lang.php, just for your reference.

Also sent you a PM on some other topics.

redownload JFU from the website and reinstall it. The language class is now renamed and the flash does now load the en.xml even when no language is selected.

- Michael

Works great now, plus no conflict with ECJC. THANKS!
