Hi bio, if you chose a language other than English in the web installer, some sample content in the chosen language will be installed to the database. You are right, that those will not change or get translated when switching to another language using the language chooser. Examples are the news on the left side of the staff home page and lists of authorized values like collections and locations. Everything else should get translated switching back and forth between languages. Did you install 3.8 or a later 3.8.x version? The German files for 3.8 have a little bug, that will make the translation process not complete. So some of the templates will not be generated and remain in English. The files for the current 3.8.x version should be complete. Hope that helps, Katrin -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz im Auftrag von w4@online.de Gesendet: Mi 25.07.2012 20:03 An: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Betreff: Re: [Koha] languages mixed up in koha 3.8 maby i can answer myself: i went through the installation process again. when it comes to the configuration which is already through the webserver form, i am asked to choose my language. this is the language all the content stays, no matter what language i choose. the menu contents (like drop box lists) are not translated, neather the "welcome to koha" or "what's next" box left on the mainpage. right? sorry. i didn't know, i thought everything is translated... bio On 20.07.2012 13:01, w4@online.de wrote:
dear list,
i am new to koha. i installed it yesterday to do some testing. i have two languages installed.
once i changed to german and back to english, the contents of menues stay in german. switching again doesn't help. the logs don't show any error messages.
do you have an idea, what's wrong there? thanx!
