Hi everybody

I'm trying to translate the menu from english to another language in the admin interface of MT. The problem is that i cant find the file where this menu is. The menu is the drop down menus in the admin. Such as the voices Manage, Create, Preferences, Tools, Design etc.
really i need help for this.

Thank you

Hi Apocaliptic,


An efficient way for doing this is to:


1) (download in ascii and) open locally:

/lib/MT/L10N/fr.pm


2) scroll down until you find:

## lib/MT/Core.pm

(this is on line 626 in Movable Type v4.23)


3) you may just copy and paste or a custom expression that you want to translate or say all the lines under the text comment

i.e. Movable Type v4.23, this means until line 690 where you can see:

## lib/MT/ArchiveType/AuthorMonthly.pm on


4) (download in ascii and) open locally:

/lib/MT/L10N/en_us.pm


5) paste the coding from step 3 after the line:

%Lexicon = (


6) start inserting the translation within the quotes on the right of the '=>' sing

i.e.

'Manage Categories' => 'Gérer les catégories',

becomes:

'Manage Categories' => 'My custom translation goes here...',
