Questions related to localisation and languages

View items...

A lot of different languages are available for the Back-end, but by default this language may not be installed. If you want a translated Back-end, get your language pack and install it using the Extension Installer. After this, go to the Extensions Menu, select Language Manager and make your language the default one. Your Back-end will be translated immediately.

Users who have access rights to the Back-end may choose the language they prefer in their Personal Details parameters. This is of also true for the Front-end language.

A good place to find where to download your languages and localised versions of Joomla! is Translations for Joomla! on JED.

Yes! Prior to Joomla! 1.5, only the text values of an Article and only for ISO-8859-1 encoding was allowed in the PDF rendition. With the new PDF library in place, the complete Article including images is rendered and applied to the PDF. The PDF generator also handles the UTF-8 texts and can handle any character sets from any language. The appropriate fonts must be installed but this is done automatically during a language pack installation.

What languages are supported by Joomla! 1.5?

Written by Administrator
Within the Installer you will find a wide collection of languages. The installer currently supports the following languages: Arabic, Bulgarian, Bengali, Czech, Danish, German, Greek, English, Spanish, Finnish, French, Hebrew, Devanagari(India), Croatian(Croatia), Magyar (Hungary), Italian, Malay, Norwegian bokmal, Dutch, Portuguese(Brasil), Portugues(Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Svenska, Thai and more are being added all the time.
By default the English language is installed for the Back and Front-ends. You can download additional language files from the Joomla!Extensions Directory.
The collation option determines the way ordering in the database is done. In languages that use special characters, for instance the German umlaut, the database collation determines the sorting order. If you don't know which collation you need, select the "utf8_general_ci" as most languages use this. The other collations listed are exceptions in regards to the general collation. If your language is not listed in the list of collations it most likely means that "utf8_general_ci is suitable.

How do I localise Joomla! to my language?

Written by Administrator

General

In Joomla! 1.5 all User interfaces can be localised. This includes the installation, the Back-end Control Panel and the Front-end Site.

The core release of Joomla! 1.5 is shipped with multiple language choices in the installation but, other than English (the default), languages for the Site and Administration interfaces need to be added after installation. Links to such language packs exist below.

FAQ
Here are some questions that we are frequently asked in one form or another. There are always variations so be sure to ask us about any specific details that may apply to your case but these answers should give you a good head start.
 

1.        How long will my divorce take if I use your service?

It depends on how quickly you return to us the signed documents that we need to file for your divorce and the judges schedule.  We usually can have you divorced within 30 days of receiving your signed documents.  Typically, everything can be done in less than 45 days if you have an agreement with your spouse and no special circumstances arise.

2.         If my spouse agrees to take me off joint loans such as a mortgage, car lease or loan am I protected from liability on those loans?

The problem is the bank may not release you from those loans.  If your spouse continues to make the payments, no problem.  But if your spouse stops paying the loan, the bank can hold you responsible even with your agreement with your spouse.  You can get an indemnification agreement from your spouse, but you technically still owe the bank and would have to go into court to fight your spouse if the lender came after you. 

Are there safer ways against being held responsible for the loan and possibly having it hurt your credit?  The only way to be safe is to have your spouse pay off the loan by sale of the property at issue, with cash or through refinancing.  In today’s economic environment, refinancing may be difficult, but you should consult with your bank to see if you can refinance the property with your spouse. 

3.         What if my spouse agrees to waive my obligation to pay child support? 

The law is child support is the right of the minor children of the marriage and can’t be waived by either parent. There have been very rare instances where one parent agreed to pay the child support obligation of the other parent, but if that parent ever fails to do so you’re not off the hook. Child support is a very tender subject to the courts.  As a general rule, you cannot waive child support.  If this situation applies to you, call us to speak with one of attorneys or seek the advice of another lawyer.

4.         I want a divorce but I don’t want to appear in  court.  Do I have to?

It depends on the judge and how the judge in your case usually handles these cases.  If the judge wants a final hearing, then you will have to appear briefly. We will have an attorney prepare you and accompany you at the hearing.  In other instances, the judge will sign the final divorce papers without a final hearing in which case you are off the hook and don’t need to appear.  One thing you don’t need to be concerned about is your spouse’s required appearance. only the petitioning spouse needs to appear at the final hearing, so you can ask your spouse not to go and our office will send your spouse the paperwork finalizing the divorce.

5.         I have read through the website and don’t think that I can get an uncontested divorce.  Can you still help me?

Definitely.  First, we recommend that you call or email us to discuss your case.  You may be able to obtain an uncontested divorce with our help.  If not, we have a referral network of family law attorneys.  We are happy to refer you to an attorney who can help.

 6.         How much are the Court's filing fees?

Below you will the filing fees for cases dealing with Family Law.

Is it possible to change A Menu Item's Type?

Written by Administrator

You indeed can change the Menu Item's Type to whatever you want, even after they have been created.

If, for instance, you want to change the Blog Section of a Menu link, go to the Control Panel->Menus Menu->[menuname]->Menu Item Manager and edit the Menu Item. Select the Change Type button and choose the new style of Menu Item Type from the available list. Thereafter, alter the Details and Parameters to reconfigure the display for the new selection as you require it.

What are the requirements to run Joomla! 1.5?

Written by Administrator

Joomla! runs on the PHP pre-processor. PHP comes in many flavours, for a lot of operating systems. Beside PHP you will need a Web server. Joomla! is optimized for the Apache Web server, but it can run on different Web servers like Microsoft IIS it just requires additional configuration of PHP and MySQL. Joomla! also depends on a database, for this currently you can only use MySQL.

Many people know from their own experience that it's not easy to install an Apache Web server and it gets harder if you want to add MySQL, PHP and Perl. XAMPP, WAMP, and MAMP are easy to install distributions containing Apache, MySQL, PHP and Perl for the Windows, Mac OSX and Linux operating systems. These packages are for localhost installations on non-public servers only.
The minimum version requirements are:
  • Apache 1.x or 2.x
  • PHP 4.3 or up
  • MySQL 3.23 or up
For the latest minimum requirements details, see Joomla! Technical Requirements.
