NP_Text.php

Internationalise your skins by using skin language files.

1. Copy and paste the code into a text editor and save it as NP_Text.php
2. Install the plugin (How do I install a plugin?)

Requires skin language file (skins/skin/language/language.php) where language is the language set by member, if it is not set it will default to globally set language.

Language file must be of the following form:

<?php
 
define("SL_NAME", "value");
// ... etc.
 
?>

I (Armon) have chosen SL_ as the prefix because Nucleus internally uses the _WHAT_ prefix (where WHAT can be SKIN, ADMIN, etc.).

If the skin language file is not found no text will be output but an error will be thrown in the Action Log.

• <%Text(CONSTANT)%>: Display constants from language files. E.g. define the phrase “add comment” as variable SL_ADDCOMMENT in skin language file, then display in your skin using <%Text(ADDCOMMENT)%>

• Download flag icons from http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/flags/ to use as a language switcher.
