Customizing Language

Customizing Language

To customize language:

1. Visit /language/ab_cd/ where ab_cd is the language, like en_us.
2. Find _override-example.php and rename it to _override.php
3. Add your language overrides by copying the definition from any other language file for this language and pasting it into this file, modifying the language string as desired.

For example, if you want to change a definition found in /language/en_us/users.php, copy the language string like:

$lang['Users.!error.username.empty'] = 'Please enter a username.';

And paste it into /language/en_us/_override.php with your changes like so:

$lang['Users.!error.username.empty'] = 'My custom text here.';

How can I update all clients to use a specific language?

You can run the following query, replacing en_us with your desired language, like es_es. Please note that this will update ALL CLIENTS to use the language you set. Make sure the language is installed and valid and take a backup of your database before running the query.

UPDATE client_settings SET `value` = 'en_us' WHERE `key` = 'language';
