SPF In Your Language
If a translation for Simple:Press Forum is available in your language, it will come in the form of a file that contains your language code in it’s filename with an extension of ‘mo’. This file must be placed in the ‘plugins/simple-forum/languages/’ folder and your language code must be correctly set in your WordPress ‘wp-config.php’ file.
define (‘WPLANG’, ‘it’);
Where ‘it’ is your language code – in this case Italian.
NOTE: Some plugin and WordPress language files come with a ‘double’ code like ‘it_IT’. This will be the case for countries languages spoken in many countries. The important point is that the codes used in your WP_LANG setting and ALL plugin language files MUST match. If they do not, edit the file name to match your WP_LANG code. For the Simple:Press Forum language file it MUST begin sforum followed by the desired single or double language code with the extension of .mo and all will be well.
Please note that adding language files can sometimes utilize much of your available php memory. If you start to get out of memory errors after installing a language file then you will need to allocate more. This can usually be arranged by asking your host.
Translating Your Language
Please remember that translated versions of Simple:Press Forum will always follow the release of any version and only then if there is a volunteer working in your language.
Translating is not hard (if you have the language skills of course) but can be time consuming. If no language file is available then please do consider volunteering to create one.
To volunteer to translate your language, please visit our Languages forum and make a request following the instructions.
