Arabic Translation

[Master]

here are the Arabic language files for tp 0.98

[IchBin]

thank you. It should now be available.

[Master]

great

[Master]

i searched the download section there aren't any Arabic language files please check it ...

[Zetan]

For now, there is an attachment of the zip file in the first post.

[IchBin]

People who post these should put them in the download section. I have no idea if these are utf8 or what character code they are encoded in. Not to mention its less work for me.

You will need to make Arabic themes direction RTL.
I converted about 10 already if you want, converted them so Hebrew will be RTL.

Take a look

Does anyone know how I can translate these to UTF8?

[G6Cad]

Added the UTF8 package in your other topic, and also added it to the downloadsection. It will not show in the downloads until Bloc or IchBin accepted the package though.

Oops, I have been off for quite a while.

Croco has uploaded the files here since February 

So I have to apologize for this

- The files you uploaded are translated by Croco, who is also local moderator in Arabic SMF Support and they are not uploaded by him. They might be available at his site http://www.andareena.com, I don't understand Arabic so I can't tell for sure. We will have to ask him.

- The files have errors that may cause misfunctioning. This is not Croco's error, as the files given for translation are different than the final ones. What is more important is that some parameters have changed and some options don't correspond to the text.

I will ask Bloc what we can do about this.

I will soon publish a guide for translators  for finding and correcting these errors.

it seems that is OK but still the characters are mess, this is the right charter UTF8, you have to use an editor that support UTF8 to view it

if you try to convert it from Arabic your system should support Arabic characters so it can convert it without problem.

[Master]

by the way i didn't find the original translated files in the Arabic encoding in download section ...

[G6Cad]

You didnt look close enough

[Master]

yea after looking i found it here http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item773
my mistake

EDIT: (changed the link)
but still the utf8 here http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item790 has the wrong chars

[IchBin]

I just downloaded and open the file fine on my end. Anyone else?

[Ken.]

[Master]

sorry wrong link this is the corrupted package http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item790

[IchBin]

I can open and extract that file as well. Not corrupted for me. Try clearing your browser cache and downloading again.

[Master]

i can open it too but i can't read it ....

what i am saying someone convert the file to UTF8 using editor that doesn't recognize the Arabic characters so it converted the wrong symbols

here an example  of Arabic writing

اÙ,,كتابة باÙ,,Ù,,غة اÙ,,عربية

and this is the sample of the file

ÇÃ'ÊÝÇÚ ÕäÏæÞ ÇáÏÃ'ÏÃ"É 邇钧Ã"á

can you see the difference now ?....

[IchBin]

Ah yes. I see that. Corrupted text and not a corrupted file. My bad. Feel free to upload the language pack instead of attaching it to your post next time and we can just approve it. I'll upload it later when I get a chance.

[Master]

OK i didn't get it at the beginning i will do that next time thanks for your help IchBinâ,,¢
