French translation : Language files + Theme
« on: April 10, 2010, 11:01:26 pm »
Hi,

I made a translation to the languages files but I always see English
text so I looked around and I found that the theme has it own text so
I translate it too.

So you have here

http://www.mikou.net/osclass/translations.rar

where you can find the fr_FR.mo and fr_FR.po

http://www.mikou.net/osclass/default_new(FR).rar

where you can find the default_new in FRENCH

But this is not all, because some file from the script contain text
too so it needs to be translated too, but I didn't do that because I
don't know if it's permitted.

Also I have to say that French has some special characters and some
sentences needs special traitement.

like : user name = Nom d'utilisateur  ( you can see that we use an
apostrophe )
And because you use the apostrophe to limit the text in the ECHO
function so it makes a confusion or in the categories it will look
something like Nom d'/utilisateur.

So you can help in solving this probel is using double quotation marks
to limit the text.

I can help more in that if you give me permission.

I also can start a new website for supporting the OSClass French
community.
And help in the source code too.

I have many ideas to help this script so if you are interested please
contact me throw my website

Hi Mikou!

We are extremely grateful with you for your contribution. And if you take a look at the SVN repository you will see it is already included with you as author.
The only thing I need to remark is you wouldn't change a theme to see it translated, but instead extend the po/mo files to include the complete literals.

Can you please update the French translation taking English as model?

Thank you!

But what about that :
