Instructions to Translate Mailer to different language

To use your own language files please follow these steps.

1. Go to the directory:

/mailer/lib/langpack/

In this folder is different language files. You should copy the english.php file. You can call this file anything you want, just make sure the extension is .php

Now you should edit your new file by replacing the english words in the quotes with your translation.

2. The next file to edit is lib/lang.php (Make sure you make a backup)

You should replace the information at:

$languages = array(

0 => array(

'name' => 'English (iso-8859-1)',

'charset' => 'latin1',

'collation' => 'latin1_swedish_ci',

'codepage' => 'iso-8859-1',

'langpack' => 'english'

)

with your information for your language. Please consult MYSQL information about character sets to know what to enter on these lines.

Please Note the following:

The name variable can be anything and is used when you install the software. It will appear in the drop-down. The langpack should be the name of the file that you modified in step number 1
