Language Strings 2.1

[vbgamer45]

Where is the best place to place them? I been adding them to modifications.english.php instead of having to load the whole language file for the mod but seems like in some cases the strings are not loaded before the hooks? For the menus/admins menus.  I haven't' been able to recreate it on my test site but one user seems to have the issue.

Thinking also maybe a mapping of the order in which hooks are called might help and what major functions are loaded before it.

[Arantor]

In the hooked function call loadLanguage before you modify the array.

Such a map would be enormous and convoluted.

[Suki]

If you put them on your own file then you need to load that file before you can use them as SMF won't load that file for you.

If you use the Modifications language file then it would be available everywhere.

If you enable the debug setting then you will see a list of called hooks for the particular page you're at, that list gets created as they were called so the order indicates which hook was called first.

I got rid of the errors by moving all the language strings to Modifications.english.php I also had to add a txt string for downloads_menu cause it was not there. But, even after installing it still says I should install it in the package manager.

Odd the mod should add all these to the modificaitons.english.php file

Also had to add downloads_admin txt string as it was missing as well. No errors no in the error log and all works great. Just have to figure out why it says install beside it and not uninstall.

[vbgamer45]

I have it listed in the modifications.english.php file edit? My question was that file modified at all? Or did you have to add all the strings?

It is sounding like it didn't' fully install? Since there is no reason for those things to happen.

[Bigguy]

The Modifications.english.php file was completely empty. I had to add everything. When installing the description beside all the files that says what they are supposed to be doing was blank as well.

[vbgamer45]

Something didn't happen. Right check your earliest error log maybe a clue there...

[Bigguy]

When I was looking at the error log there was nothing in it about the installation just all the language string errors. I have since cleared the log file so there will be no help there. I guess if I need to uninstall it it's just as simple as overwriting the files anyway
