Translations to other languages

Hello James,

is it possible to help you to translate this page to other languages?
Syd2 just diversified his page to 5 new languages, I've helped Willy for the german version of BOINCstats and lot's of other volunteers to about a dozen more, I'd like to help you here with german as well.

Greetz,
Saenger

The framework I'm using (e107) supports this, so it should be possible. The module I've written needs to get the "strings" pulled out and into a resource file. I'll see what I can do about getting that done.

Here's how the translation appeal was done.
I posted this message on 16 of the BOINC Project Cafe forums -


Do you have a second language? (not English or German)
If so, you could help by becoming a translator for one of the BOINC stats sites -

Have a look at the charts and layout.
Please contact Markus by sending a PM. ( register for the forum 1st )

Sorry for the delay, life (paying job, etc) are getting in the way. I'll see if I can scrape some time up this week to work on it. Glad to hear you would want to help translate. smile3

Hello everybody

I just joined boinc combined.

So far I'm exploring everything, I think is good idea to translate this page to several languages.

I can help translating the resource file to Spanish, if you want, just let me know.

How are we supposed to translate it?
Any conventions to be looked for?
How to get it back to you?

In the file lan_boinc.php, you need to translate each line that has a "define" on it. You just have to translate the text that is in the second set of quotes on each line.

So, for example, a line like:

define("LAN_000", "My English Text");

needs to be changed to:

define("LAN_000", "Your translated text");

Once you have a file that is translated, use the "Contact Us" link and I'll tell you how to get the file to me.

Been there, done that wink3
If anything was wrong with my translation, you can contact me per pm either @Willy or my team forum @SETI.Germany.

Or simply write it here, but I can't guaranty that I read here every day wink3
