Purpose of the Mod
This mod improves workflow by combining the Search, Add New, and Edit forms into one screen. The mod also enhances the Add New Language form to come up with more meaningful values for the Display Language and Character Set fields.
That is, depending on which language folder is selected by the user,
- The input box for the language display value (e.g. German vs Dutch vs German-UTF8, etc.) may be converted into checkboxes that populate an input box into which the user can ultimately enter an arbitrary value.
- The input box for the character set is initialized to "UTF-8" for all UTF8 language folders, to "ISO-8559-2" for Czech and Polish, and to "ISO-8559-1" for all other language folders.
Mod Version 2 Uninstallation
Admin Languages v10.1.0.2 (i.e. v2) contains some ambiguous code fragments in two target locations, and thus does not uninstall correctly. It uninstalls without error, but it leaves an incorrect string in the PHP program admin_languages.php so that admin_languages.php neither works correctly, nor allows the Admin Languages mod to be re-installed.
After uninstalling Admin Languages v2, you can repair admin_languages.php either by
- Restoring it from the original admin_languages.php in your TNG download, or
- Installing Admin Languages Repair, from the zip file listed on the right.
Once you have Installed Admin Languages Repair, you should just delete it; Do NOT Uninstall Admin Languages Repair. And by all means, delete Admin Languages v2 once you have uninstalled it.
Mod Conflicts
No other mods affect admin_languages.php.
Installation
This mod uses the standard installation procedure, though it should be noted that this mod contains a mod subfolder that is shared with other mods that implement Inner_Mod_Menus. Because of the shared subfolder, as you unzip or copy the mod, you might get a warning noting that a file or folder already exists. You can just ignore that warning.
