Translation problems (editing language)

Hi,

I have some problems with editing language in phpLD 3.4. The language is Swedish and I have the file sv.php in the language folder. In config.php language is set to "sv".

In step 1 I got this problem
When I go into System -> Language editor and editor and edit the swedish language it's saved in the sv.php. But the changes was not shown on site. In the templates there is {l}{/l} so it's nothing wrong there. I have tried this without change:
* Edit directly in sv.php.
*Clean the cache under Cache in admin.
*I have tried the page on different computers.

So the problem belongs to the script.

Step 2
Then I found /temp/templates/ folder and tried to clean it. Then some of the words worked fine and some not. When I made updates in the language editor, and cleaned the folder again, the language (on site) changed back to english for a couple of words. In the language editor the same word are added at the bottom of the swedish list (in english).

When I now look at the language compared to each other (Swedish and English) there are swedish words without any english translation (

.:: ... ::.

). These words are the same as I newly translated into swedish. I think the problem is here somewhere but since I don't know how the /temp/templates/-cache work I cant move any further.

Does any one got any solution for this?

Thanks,
Jakob

My advice is to download both the sv and the en php files to your computer.

open both in a text editor and make the changes there.
Remember that the hashes must match

the hash is the md5 sum of the english word/phrase

Now I tried to download the sv.php and en.php and there are still problems.

This line I have in en.php:
'0630d9cf52c1392cb5c56fad8356563d' => 'Regular links with reciprocal',
This line I have in sv.php:
'0630d9cf52c1392cb5c56fad8356563d' => 'Framhävd länk med tillbakalänk',
The message shown on site is: Regular links with reciprocal

Is there any cache or temp files that should be cleaned after uploading the language files?

When editing in offline I also got problems with the some coding of special chars. Isn't the coding format UTF-8?

should be lok in your submit.tpl and make sure that the text

Regular links with reciprocal

has l tags around it.

Yes in submit.tpl the line is:
{l}Regular links with reciprocal{/l}

hmmm can you turn the options back on and grant me ftp and admin access??

You now got a PM.

Thanks,
Jakob

Now I found a solution for the problem.

What I did is:
1. Editing the language as normal in admin.
2. Downloading the affected .tpl-file with ftp.
3. Uploading the affected .tpl-file with ftp (not doing any changes in the .tpl-file).

I don't have any clue why you have to update the .tpl-file? I think it could be something about the temp-files but that's just a thought.

Hope this could help others with the same problem.

Thanks,
Jakob
