Hello,

My website is in Chinese (Wordpress 4.0), but when I went to Integration>language translation, i got the following message:

"Your site language setting is English/US and therefore no translation files are required for Simple:Press"

Can you let me know how I can get the translation files please?

Thanks!

Hey,

You might want to take a look at a few things, firstly the localization article in the codex will be a useful place to start! Also, if you click the 'Your Language' button in the link panel on the right hand side you will find the translation files. Only checked for core, but it looks like Chinese (China) and Chinese (Taiwan) are both at about 80% translated for front end which is pretty decent!

Hello, Ike,

Thank you for your suggestions.

I've checked my wp-config.php, in it, it's defined:

define('WPLANG', 'zh_TW');

I've also downloaded the front end and back end language files:

sp-zh_TW.mo

spa-zh_TW.mo

and put them in:

wp-content/sp-resources/forum-language/simple-press

However, nothing happened. Any idea what else I can check?

In addition, I noticed the icons are not showing up on my website. They show up as broken image. Please see the linked screenshot and perhaps you would like to have a look at my website. Thanks!

Hello,

As I'm configuring this awesome forum, a question came up, and I can't seem to find the answer to it.

I want to set up featured topics and posts. How do I find the topic ID and post ID?

Thanks!

With the language, most of the text will actually come from the theme itself, so you will need to download the them language files, and possibly some plugins as well.

Have your icons always been missing? It looks like the file names are being changed. For example I can see the icon's being called fine in the console, such as 'sp-LogInOut.png' however it is supposed to have an underscore, not a hyphen, so should appear  'sp_LogInOut.png'.

There have been problems in the past with a couple of WP plugins messing with the file names somehow.. Might be worth just disabling WP plugins to see if it resolves the problem, just a quick test to rule out the option more than anything.

For the topic ID's, one way of doing it is to download the 'Alternate ID Permalink for Topics' plugin. This will enable you to have numeric topic ID's. Although this will only apply to topics posted after the plugin has been activated, it will allow you to copy a numeric topic ID from the end of the URL in the topic, and use it in the featured topics and posts plugin.

Hope some of this is helpful!

Thanks, Ike!

I got the language working, and found out that it's the Types - Custom Fields and Custom Post Type Management plugin that's responsible for changing the file names. It appears to be a known issue and their developers are fixing it.

Thanks again for your help!
