Title: [English] Just installed...thoughts...
Post by: jw791 on May 08, 2003, 04:33:35 AM

For the english-speakers out there

1) It was semi-painful, but I finally got it to work.

2) The features of this software seem incredible - good job!

3) The main problem I had was sifting thru the mixed German and English instructions.  Make sure to upload the php/html as ASCII and the .gif/.jpg as binaries.

4) Check and DOUBLE-CHECK that you have set ALL the directory permissions correctly before even attempting to create a gallery and upload pictures.

5) I use GD - seems to work pretty good, not optimal but it does the job.

6) Make sure to create your MySQL database, and user/password before running the install

7) Make sure to download the English language pack, and upload it to the \lang directory before running the install

7) Once you are in control panel...first thing is to is to change the language, or you will be lost

Here is the basic uploaded version, I still have a lot of configuring to do before I go live Talk Pets! Album (http://www.talkpets.com/album)

Title: Install done correctly (but it is in Germain) how do I which to English?
Post by: Lamont1701 on April 20, 2008, 07:23:35 AM

Hello,

Great News!!!  I installed the 4Images Program.  But the program displays in Germain.

I need it to display in English.

How do I switch to English?


Or do I need to download then install an English version? 

If so, what is the URL for downloading the English version of the 4Imagine Gallery Program? 
(Hopefully someone will give me (detailed) instructions on how to change the language to English.)

        Pleaseeeeee    (I thank you in advance.)

3) The main problem I had was sifting thru the mixed German and English instructions.

Mixed up? In the 4images/docs/ folder is a file called Installation.english.txt

7) Make sure to download the English language pack, and upload it to the \lang directory before running the install

? The englisch language pack is bundled with the 4images download package:

Anyway... enjoy 4images!

Title: SOLUTION -- LANGUAGE TRANSLATION
Post by: Lamont1701 on April 21, 2008, 12:35:01 AM

http://www.yourwebsite.com/4images/admin/settings.php

To change the language from German to English, use the URL above.  (You will have to adapt the URL above to your own situation. The most important part of the URL above is; /admin/settings.php)

Then in the General Settings Section, (Allgemeine Einstellungen) (the second section, from the top) in the option “Choose language directory” (Wählen Sie Sprachenverzeichnis) select “English” in the drop down box. 

Then go to the bottom, center of the page click “Save Changes.”  (Abwehr-änderungen)

That is it, you’re done!  I hope this has been of help to you.
