Language Drop Down

[SleePy]

You would add it to the style.css. You need to add your own.
Something such as this may work:

Code Select Expand


.smalltext #language_select
{
    font-size: x-large;
}


[Cheese Head]

SleePy, thanks, worked perfect!

I switched mine to small as X-large was way too big for me.

Thanks again!

Hello,

First thanks for this mod very useful  .
Then I just want to say (if that hadn't be said) that we must set up a default language to the forum before using this mod (Settings.php). If not, there is a lot of problem for user who come for the first time (who hasn't set up his language).

Alright.
If you open the Themes index.template.php

Find:

Code Select Expand

  </div>

  <div id="mainarea">

Add Before:

Code Select Expand

', template_language_select(), '

Make sure you add the other edit to the index.template.php as well. This one works on all themes

Alright, you added it to the template and got rid of the error

Now you just need to pick the place in your theme and add in the call to the template.

Most likely you will just need to use:
', template_language_select(), '

That and add it in where you want it in your theme

I want to ask.. i am now installing a forum ... and i want to install youre  mod...

But... when it's uploaded, i get the text : There are no install actions defined..

it's for SMF 2... so i used version 3

[KensonPlays]

Hi, this would be great for my ESL site if I could get it to work for me! I am new to SMF and site building so this could be a simple question.
I have managed to upload the mod through the admin panel and have "aplied" it. Everything says "success" but there is no dropdown showing on the site?

I have the funtion for users to change their language in the profile area but I what a dropdown like the one on this forum. Can you tell me how?

I am having same problem, I have a different theme than default, do you have YOUR OWN DIFFERENT theme than default?
Hey, mod owner, what is coding for Efsane theme?

[Daveyo]

I installed your mod on version 1.1.9 and all I have is English showing up and none of the other languages.  sigh

No errors show up and it shows green as installed on my packages.

Why only English show up??  Am I missing something here.??

I downloaded it, to my computer, then uploaded on the package manager, and it was installed.  I see it on my default theme of which I also want my other members to use instead of using different themes.  So what did I do wrong or do I have to edict this mod.  If so where to find this file in the Cpanel and where to edict it properly.

Just covering all the basics here because I have no idea why only English work.  I uploaded as a tar zip file in the package manager.

Hope you can respond as this mod is much needed for others world wide to read my forum etc.

I am a newbie in all this so hopefully you can be gentle with me on questions and answers here as I cannot understand chinese!!!!  hehehehehehe.

Thanks

Daveyo

This could be very helpful for what I need, would like to try it, but have the drop down appear in the same div as the search box (aligned left) since I have removed the other section of the header where the drop down would normally be placed.

I tried to parse the newest version on the mod site to get the code but this throws an error (other versions parse).

I also tried to upload the package to my test forum but applying it throws an error as well, but could be because it can't find the section in index.template.php.

Would it be difficult to enable this inserting the code, and what are the instructions for manually enabling this? Here is my index.template.php:

Got a question to ask you.  Why doesn't the Slovenian Mod not work.  It is on the language drop down menu, but it does not do a thing to the forum to show the language being changed.

Is there something wrong with that mod or what.

I got all the others working fine. 

Also how to get the post pages or information to the specific languages so that people can read it in their language.  Is this possible or not.

This doesn't install in SMF1.1.10, although the code says:

Code Select Expand

<install for="1.1.2-1.1.99">
I tested it in several forums.

[agridoc]

I suggested the mod in a topic in Greek support board and the answer was that it doesn't install in SMF 1.1.10.

I searched a bit and found that

Code Select Expand

<install for="1.1.2-1.1.99">
Works with 1.1.9 not with 1.110

However

Code Select Expand

<install for="1.1.1-1.1.99">
as well as

Code Select Expand

<install for="1.1.2, 1.1.10">
work OK with SMF 1.1.10

So it's rather a small bug in SMF 1.1.10.

[SleePy]

Also adding ;version_emulate=1.1.9 to the end of the url, will make package manager think it is running a older version of SMF and allow you to install the mod.

[agridoc]

If I remember well, I tried it and didn't work. The cause is that the bug in 1.1.10 interferes in version range parsing.
