Title: Issue with language files and character set
Post by: dedalus on May 25, 2008, 06:14:05 PM

Hi guys !!

I'm having a little issue with a new installation of Portuguese language in a new SMF+TP install.
I have another forum where everything is perfect, so I don't know why this is happening.

Portuguese works fine in SMF, but not in TP.
Looks like there's something wrong with the character set as letters with special accents "Ã£", "Ã§", and so on appear strangely like you can see in the attached pic.

By the way..I have installed SMF 1.1.5 + TP 0.98

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Cant speak for that language more then the basics you can check.
I assume you have tested bot the regular oand the utf8 package ? make sure the files are named the same as the SMF files so the strings are the same like tportal.portuguese.php and tportal.portuguese-utf8.php

If the strings are named diffrently, they will not work.

Thanks a lot G6 !!

In fact I didn't think of deleting the regular package and renaming the UTF8 files.
Now it's working !!

Thanks for the tip !!

Issue solved, you can close the topic
