Hi there

As mentioned in customising/language strings below, I was wondering if I make any changes then what the implications are when mahara software is upgraded. Does these changes reflected automatically or they have to be changed manually in the nest upgrade.

https://wiki.mahara.org/index.php/Customising/Language_Strings

Also, I have this file called group/topics.php which lists all the forum topics posted. I was unable to locate the right string for changing this in lang file. Can someone tell me where I need to change this.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

When you change/translate strings, don't do this directly into the core. Create a folder called "xx.utf8" (xx stands for your language) and place all your translated files into the langpacks folder in your maharadata folder.

Download a foreign language package from here (http://langpacks.mahara.org/) and see how it is done.

That way your work won't be destroyed by an update of your Mahara server.
