I did install JFBConnect-4.2-Joomla17_Joomla25_20120516 in a multilingual site Spanish - English where spanish is the main language.

The es_ES .ini file was missin so I create a new one from the english version in languages/es-ES/es-Es.com_jfbconnect.ini

Edit: es-ES.mod_sclogin.ini looks likes is working properly..!

In the front end (spanish) the language remain in english, what can I do to solve this issue?

Thank you,

Omar

Omar,
What strings are remaining in English? What you describe is exactly what you should be doing, and that's a part of Joomla functionality itself. JFBConnect does not force English on your site.

Once we know the strings that aren't translating, we can help you figure out the proper solution.

Thanks,
Alex

Thank you for your response. The string remaining in english is the main button of Login With Facebook, translation must be Ingresar con Facebook, Also when you are logged in you receive the message Welcome [Username] insted of Bienvenido [Username]. This is the link of the spanish version of the site www.bajaguia.com/es/ where you can check..

Thank you,

Omar

The Login with Facebook text should definitely be in the com_jfbconnect.ini file using the COM_JFBCONNECT_LOGIN_USING_FACEBOOK string. If that's not working, can you try updating that in the English language file to see if for some reason it's being read from there? If so, are you using any 3rd party language switchers or something else not part of Joomla for your multi-lingual support?

For the SCLogin modules strings, those are in the mod_sclogin.ini file. Copy those to es_ES and translate as well.

As always, if you're having issues, just let us know and we can look into it further!

Thanks,

Definitely keep us posted. Haven't heard any issues about our language stuff in a while. We've done a lot (with a lot of user feedback) to make our multi-language support on the front-end very customizable. If you run into problems though, we'll gladly help how we can!

Thanks,

Alex,

I did get no lucky, JFBConnect it's not switching the language to spanish. For now I just translate in the same en-GB.com_jfbconnect.ini file since the mayor visitor of the site are in spanish the following strings:

COM_JFBCONNECT_LOGIN_USING_FACEBOOK=""
COM_JFBCONNECT_LOGIN=""
COM_JFBCONNECT_REGISTER=""
COM_JFBCONNECT_LOGOUT=""
COM_JFBCONNECT_CONNECT_USER=""

Any ideas??

Thank you,

Omar

Omar,
Can you check if the System - Language Filter is published? That plugin will detect the user's browser language and switch the Joomla language accordingly. JFBConnect will respect the value that plugin tells us to use (which is the proper thing to do) while other extensions don't always do that.

Not sure of any other reason the language would be forced to English. Again, we simply tell Joomla to load 'our' language files, and it should be choosing the right one for the user's language. We in no way tell it to use English.

I guess one final thing to check is that your es_ES language files you created for JFBConnect have the proper permissions. They should be the same as the en_GB versions. If Joomla can't access them for some reason, it (not JFBConnect) will fall back to the English versions.

Hopefully something there helps or rings a bell! Let us know how it goes,
Alex
