Now, with America up and reading… could some moderator move this one to the right forum, please? ??

Thanks in advance!

You may try at https://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-pro

There are good WP Pros over there.

Good luck! ??

Oops! that would be a huge amount of work!

I’m pretty sure that WP (or WPMU, or BuddyPress) could met your needs but it, surely, will require tons of work and a couple of WP Pros to do it.

Why do you want to switch your engine?

Actually, it is.

You’ve sounded like you were looking for setup some kind of social network and BuddyPress is the WP solution for such kind of things. Sorry if I’ve lost the point.

Are you looking for BuddyPress? ??

BTW, you can hardcode the strings in the theme as the WP Default Theme does, or copy & paste all your theme .po (translated) after the original WP .po and compile the default textdomain .mo including your strings.

Good luck!

Hi.

You have two ways to do it:

1. using a new textdomain as the ZyBlog tutorial says (this allow you to use your own theme’s POT with personalized strings);
2. using exactly the same strings that WP Classic Theme uses because those strings ARE on the WordPress default textdomain POT. (ex: you MUST use <?php _e("Filed under:"); ?> before your post categories listing.)

In addition to the last option, you can “tweak” the thing (if you will NOT use the blog theme in english) changing the strings in english for the string that you really need in the translation. (ex: you won’t use the string “Filed under:” but you need one that says -after translation- “Mis fotos” -My Photos, in english- so you won’t use <?php _e("Filed under:"); ?> before a list of post categories but between <h3> as the title of your Flickr photos plugin.)

I don’t recommend the tweaks while they are not essential.

If you plan to release your i18n Theme I don’t recommend neither the second option (no so bad at all) or its tweaks (no, don’t do it… evil, evil evil). The correct one is only the first option.

Greetings!

Sky, yo que t?o me fijaba de qu?? fecha es el post original. Tal vez te dabas cuenta que se habla de la traducci?3n del WP 1.2x y no del 1.5 (que, evidentemente, tiene muchas m??s cosas que traducir) ??

Por cierto, aprovecho a contar que se est?? trabajando duro y en conjunto con los equipos de desarrollo e internacionalizaci?3n para tener la traducci?3n del 1.5 lo antes posible. Avisaremos apenas est?? lista.

greatgoron: the plugin is ISO-8859 (Latin chars) based and don’t work fine on UTF-8 based blogs. If you change your charset encoding it will work ok.

Marvin: I’ll check it out looking for a solution.
Do you know what are the html entities for chars with “??” (like ??, for example)? It could help ??
Thanks for your feedback!
PS: the plugin is working fine, at least, with “?? ?? ?- ?? ?o”.

Done a little fix for a IE bug displaying the comment author’s name (it now stops showing the ugly “�” after the name).
The download link is the same, and the instructions too.

No prob ??
If you want to sanitize your old titles too you can go to edit each post, delete the post slug and submit the changes. The plugin will write the post slug again but respecting the non-english chars.
Anyway, I don’t recommend that if you have your pages indexed by Google or other SE because you will loose your old indexed URIs.

Thanks a lot for your words! ??

thewalrus: I don’t know what can be wrong, but it’s working for me too (a little demo for you ?? )
Are you using WP 1.2 Final (Mingus)? I couldn’t see your WP version nowhere…

Hi, Stephan.
umquat have your solution to “iso2utf tables” in this thread.
