Plugin package:

Hi, I was not able to translate system messages such as "success", "Sign up", etc. Where do i find them? Thank you

took me a while to figure this out. First, you need the have a language plugin installed other than default so go here and get the English-GB plugin unless you use another language: www.joomlapolis.com/cb-solutions/languages

Then you will copy from here: public_html/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cblanguageoverride/language/default_language

these files:

language.php
admin_language.php

to here:
public_html/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/language/en-gb/cbplugin

then once copied, add the prefix "cblanguageoverride-" to of those files so the files will be renamed like this:

cblanguageoverride-language.php
cblanguageoverride-admin_language.php

Then go into whatever language.php file form the original en-gb folder, find the language thread you'd like to change, copy the entire line and paste it into the "array" area in the cblanguageoverride-language.php or cblanguageoverride-admin_language.php file and change it to suit your needs like this:

return array(
'FORGOT_LOGIN_1e16ba' => 'Forgot?',
);

It's a convoluted method but seems to work.

Congratulations for this Plugin, good and useful.

It is present in the first post.

This works fine for fields defined in the component, but I cannot find a way to display new field names in different languages.

In 1.9 and earlier we used user defined fields like this:


DEFINE ('cb_english','English (Native)');
DEFINE ('cb_englishok','English (Good)');
DEFINE ('cb_englishbad','English (Poor)');

DEFINE ('cb_german','German (Native)');
DEFINE ('cb_germanok','German (Good)');
DEFINE ('cb_germanbad','German (Poor)');

DEFINE ('cb_dutch','Dutch (Native)');
DEFINE ('cb_dutchok','Dutch (Good)');
DEFINE ('cb_dutchbad','Dutch (Poor)');

DEFINE ('cb_spanish','Spanish (Native)');
DEFINE ('cb_spanishok','Spanish (Good)');
DEFINE ('cb_spanishbad','Spanish (Poor)');

I have tried adding these fields into the original language files and into the language over ride files but they do not display.

If this has now been discontinued, how do we define new fields on a multi lingual site?
