Help us make JQuarks global !

Added by Mohamed Tougorti 786 days ago

Hi all,

Thanks to several contributors, JQuarks speaks today 4 languages: English, French, German, and Norwegian.

Besides, JQuarks has been downloaded, in only one month, more than 3000 times from 135 countries. Therefore, we firmly believe that next to feature development, localization will boost it's adoption and make it Joomla! administrator's first choice as a quizzing extension.

So, here a call of action to all JQuarks users to help us localize you favorite extension! You'll be then added to JQuarks contributors list!

To do so, you have just to download the attached file and to follow this step-by-step guide:

  1. unzip the file JQuarks_v0.2.4_en-GB.zip
  2. Rename the language identifier en-GB for each ini file to meet the language for which you are translating JQuarks, for french version for example you would rename en-GB.com_jquarks.ini to fr-FR.com_jquarks.ini
  3. Now you just need to edit the labels contained in each ini file, and replace the right label with it's translation.
    ANSWERS_STATUS=Answers status become ANSWERS_STATUS=Etat des réponses
  4. Translate the html files under en-GB (JQuarks integrated help)

You may notice in some labels, some strings like %s, %d etc. Those strings are to be kept unchanged, they will be replaced later by JQuarks.

Exemple : ONLY_ALLOW_QUESTIONS_TO_BE_ADDED_TO_THIS_CATEGORY="%s" only allow "%d" question(s) to be added to this category

Here %s will be replaced with the quiz name and %d with the number of questions

You can also refer to Joomla's How to create a language pack if you don't know which language code to use for your language.

If you have any related question, feel free to reply in this thread.

Best Regards.

Hello Mahmoud,

I´ve been ill for Christmas, sorry :S.

I´ve translated the component into spainsh (Spain) and galician. I had some problem with accents with my browsers .. . :S. Take a look at them to see how they fit (maybe its a problem with my computer).

If accents need to be removed, tell me.

Regards,

C.

Thank you so much Carlos !

The accents issue have been solved (files saved to UTF8), new packages are available in #37. This issue page will allow you to follow activity in this two language packs, and finally, welcome to JQuarks contributors community!

Hi,
First of all thanks to Carlos for translation. And second I've found a small mistake on the transalation on the file es-ES.com_jquarks.ini, on line 249 it has to be

YOU_HAVE_CHOSEN_TO_TAKE_QUIZ=Has elegido comenzar el test: "%s"

Please Carlos check it.

Thanks to both of you.

Hello César,

well, thanks to Mahmoud, the component is his.

And you are right, when in line 249 i was a bit. . .:s, i thought it would take me less time to translate it, and i guess i wasnt too focussed on it.

You are right, thanks to you.

YOU_HAVE_CHOSEN_TO_TAKE_QUIZ=Has elegido comenzar el test: "%s"

In galician the same line would be something like that:

YOU_HAVE_CHOSEN_TO_TAKE_QUIZ=Elexiche comenzalo test: "%s"

Mahmoud, could you correct it plz??

If u prefer i can upload the files again.

Have a week end!!

First of all thanks a lot for your component! I really love it. Here is my "CORRECT-ANSWER" to your sharing of this fine application: the interpret of Russian language, if you need. Thank you, once more. Looking forward... :)

RE: Help us make JQuarks global ! - Added by Mahmoud M'HIRI 563 days ago

You can also support JQuarks by rating it in Joomla Extensions Directory: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/vertical-markets/education-a-culture/quiz/10590 , A five-stars rating will pop-it up through the list !

Thanks again.

Hello Mahmoud,

I have the German translation of version 0.3.1. adapted and I've fixed some bugs. Thank you for the program, I hope v0.4.0. is coming soon.

I've made some minor changes to the Es-Es Language file. Mostly to introduce the (0.30+) section. Here it is:

Hi

I have a problem with the german translation.
I add the new options to the language file but the translation of profiles doesn't work in the Backend.
Also in the Menu. My translations doesn't work and I don't know why.

Can someone tell me the reason?

And can someone please explain me the meaning of following in other words:
"input issues not assessed are not counted in the score!"

Thanks

Greetz Mohamed Tougorti,

You can enter your 5th language. I have made a Dutch (Nederlands) version.
Hope I help a lot of Dutchies with it!

Greetz,
