Main Languages
As of version 4.0.6 of iHRIS Manage and iHRIS Qualify, translations for French, Swahili, Portuguese, and Italian are automatically available to the system. iHRIS handles translations of the software through the concept of "Locales".
A locale is a pair of terms that identifies the language and country relevant to the translation. For instance, Portuguese translation for Portugal will differ from translation for Brazil. Example locales are:
- French: fr_FR
- Italian: it_IT
- Portuguese: pt_PT
- Swahili: sw_TZ
Enabling the Locale Selector Module
- Go to "Configure System"
- Go to "Configure Modules"
- Scroll down to "Pages" and click the "Sub-Modules" link
- Check the checkbox next to "Locale Selector"
- Scroll to the bottom of the screen and click the "Enable" button
Adding A Locale
- Go to "Configure System"
- Go to "Manage Locales"
- "Add" the locale you want. For example fr_FR or it_IT
Other Languages
Some other languages have only been partially translated and you will need to generate the translations of .html and .xml files. For example, in order to add the locale pt_BR (Brazilian Portuguese) to the system, you will need to open a terminal on the server and:
cd /var/lib/iHRIS/lib/4.0/6/I2CE path may be different depending on your installation php ../I2CE/tools/translate_templates.php --locales=pt_BR cd ../ihris-common php ../I2CE/tools/translate_templates.php --locales=pt_BR cd ../ihris-manage if you are using iHRIS Manage php ../I2CE/tools/translate_templates.php --locales=pt_BR cd ../ihris-qualify if you are using iHRIS Qualify php ../I2CE/tools/translate_templates.php --locales=pt_BR
