Tiki i18n (Internationalization) and languages


This page is providing an overview on the translation efforts for Tiki.

Tiki is an international project, supporting many languages. The default interface language in Tiki is English/en. We support any language which may be encoded and displayed using the utf-8 encoding. We are always looking for translators.

The current state of translations is always at: http://tikiwiki.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tikiwiki/trunk/lang/ (external link) but the information below can be out of date.

Tiki supports multiple languages and defines a mechanism to easily make the application available in other languages.

In the PHP scripts (.php files), all the text strings must be written as tra("here goes the string"); which calls the tra function that translates the string.
In Smarty templates (.tpl files), you should use the Smarty {tr} block, for example {tr}Hello world{/tr} .

This is how you write text in Tiki to be language-aware.

Once you have modified Tiki the get_strings.php script can be used to scan all the .php and .tpl files in the application regenerating/changing the language files. New strings are added to language files untranslated.
