Reply To: String missing from translation file

Hi Robkk,

no, it wasn’t turned into von. It looks like this: http://screencast.com/t/FLR74UlGQaYp

Are you planning to have a multilingual single site? You might be on to something here if you are trying to run a multilingual single site.

Yes, that was the idea, but I keep running into so many issues with this that I’m now starting to consider separate installations.

One of the issues is that a multilingual single site requires a translation for forum posts for them to show up at all. I would like users to be able to access my website in their language (menus, buttons etc) and write forum posts in their language without the need of a translation.

However, if I post something in English it will not show unless I translate the post into German and vice versa. You can imagine that it would not be feasible to translate every forum post. If I deactivate the translation of replies, then part of the interface won’t be translated either.

I’m not sure though if I can create one community if I separate the installs for the languages. E.g. I would still like users to be able to contact each other via private and public messages and post in the German and/or the English forum. Member lists should show members of both sites etc.

I’ve not looked into this yet so I don’t know if this can be done.

Just so you know, I thought the root issue could be the “by” not changing in your forums is because it might have outputted the text using code from a custom phpbb starter pack theme created by @lynq, here is an example of the custom forum freshness column from the starter pack.

I see what you mean. I think I’ll check with the author of my theme (Buddy) and see what he says. Thanks for the tip!
