_ck_ on "bbPress translation, internationalization into local languages"

_ck_ — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 17:27:48 +0000

I wanted to link to this lesser known area of the bbPress site for easier access to the available language translation files: <a href="http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/" rel="nofollow">http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/</a> currently contains: <pre> * bg_BG Bulgarian * ja Japanese * da_DK Danish * pt_BR Portuguese * de_DE German * ru_RU Russian * es_ES Spanish * sk_SK Slovak * et_EE Estonian * sv_SE Swedish * fr_FR French * ta_IN Tamil * id_ID Indonesian * tr Turkish * it_IT Italian * uz_UZ Uzbek </pre> <hr /> <a href='http://bbshowcase.org/forums/topic/bbpress-translation-internationalization-into-local-languages#post-1133'>Here is a local mirror for many more language files for bbPress.</a> <hr /> Language files by default are located: in bbPress 0.9 go into <code>bb-includes/languages/</code> in bbPress 1.0 they go into <code>my-languages/</code> You need to make the directory as it does not exist by default. You can change the default directly by changing <code>BB_LANG_DIR</code> in <code>bb-config.php</code> Also see: <a href="http://bbpress.org/blog/2006/10/bbpress-international/" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/blog/2006/10/bbpress-international/</a> <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/are-there-any-localization-files/page/3" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/are-there-any-localization-files/page/3</a> <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Translating_WordPress" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Translating_WordPress</a> <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language</a> More can be found on bbPress.org under certain tags: <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/localization" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/localization</a> <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/translation" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/translation</a> <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/internationalization" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/internationalization</a> <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/i18n" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/i18n</a> <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/i18n" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/i10n</a> <hr /> Last but not least, here's how to localize a plugin or theme: <a href="http://pressedwords.com/6-tips-for-localizing-your-wordpress-plugin/" rel="nofollow">http://pressedwords.com/6-tips-for-localizing-your-wordpress-plugin/</a> <a href="http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2007/08/27/localizing-a-wordpress-plugin-using-poedit/" rel="nofollow">http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2007/08/27/localizing-a-wordpress-plugin-using-poedit/</a> The guide is for WordPress but bbPress uses the same method. <a name='poedit-decompile'></a><hr /> If you only have a .mo file and not the .po but wish to add/edit the translations, you can "decompile" and reverse the .mo file into a .po file from the command line with poedit , ie. <pre><code>"\program files\poedit\bin\msgunfmt" ab_AB.mo > ab_AB.po</code></pre> <hr /> While poedit is the most well known there are many programs to edit translations: <ul> <li><a href="http://www.poedit.net">poEdit</a>: Linux, MacOSX, and Windows</li> <li><a href="http://www.omegat.org/omegat/omegat.html">OmegaT</a> is another translation tool that <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OmegaT#Supported_source_document_formats">can</a> translate <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gettext">PO</a> files.

enatom — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 13:05:05 +0000

Hi, CK, im halfway done hacking your plug-in. Iv added this function in your plugin file. <code>function topic_thumb(){ global $bbdb; $postid = $bbdb->get_var("SELECT post_id FROM bb_posts WHERE topic_id=4 AND post_position=1"); $filename = $bbdb->get_var("SELECT filename FROM bb_attachments WHERE post_id=".$postid); echo "post :".$postid; echo " file :".$filename; }</code> but instead of echoing the file name.. Id like to look at the function that displays the thumbnail, and see what i can take from it. What function displays the thumbnail? EDIT: This is not going anywhere I abondoned this project. but i have another question. ill post it in another thread becuase its differnet

enatom on "Paid Work for BB-Attachments modification"

enatom — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 16:13:10 +0000

CK how much would it cost for you to do the following, with the bb-attachments plugin:- - Create a function to be used inside the topic loop at the frontpage. Which would show the first .jpg .gif or .png attached to the relative topic in the loop. <code> <?php if ( $topics ) : foreach ( $topics as $topic ) : ?> <tr<?php topic_class(); ?>> <td><?php attach_thumb(); ?></td> <td><a>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a></td> <td class="num"><?php topic_posts(); ?></td> <td class="num"><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td> <td class="num"><?php topic_time(); ?></td> </tr> <?php endforeach; endif; // $topics ?> </code> or something similar

enatom on "Thumbnail for Topics"

enatom — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 21:46:16 +0000

Hi I want to make a Image Bulleting board sort of. But more importantly is there a way for the user to upload a Thumbnail for a topic(to be shown on the frontpage besides the topic title). (not nessesarily listed as an attachment inside the post, but as a thumbnail for the post shown on the frontpage) like a wordpress blog post almost? So beside each topic, would be a 30x30 thumbnail of the topic. Anyone know where i can start with this, or if there is a plugin already ? Thanks in Advanced. [attachment=2075,163]
