User selectable languages

[Frank Woolf]

I posted this earlier under "How do I"
I have created two new language files for Simplied and Traditional Chinese but cannot find any way for the user to select a language.

I am using ppClassifieds with vbPortal and vBulletin. I have the same two versions of Chinese working with vbPortal and vBulletin (not all translation done yet) and users can select the language they want but I cannot see how they can do it in ppClassifieds.

Then I saw in the similar threads after I posted this that ppClassifieds does not have any way for users to select languages. I should have checked this before I chose ppClassifieds and did 3 months work so now I have to find a solution. I will be adding more Asian languages later.

I am too inexperienced with PHP to do it myself. I see that changing the variable $pplang in config-inc changes the language so I guess what I need is a drop down menu for users to select a language which changes the value of $pplang then puts it in a cookie so when the user comes back it selects their chosen language. Of course it would have to do it without changing the language for everyone else.

Does this make sense?

Actually I need help on making a drop down menu that will do this and at the same time duplicate the language drop down menus in vBulletin and vbPortal. They currently both work fine but the user has to change each one separately.

If anyone with some expertise would like to do this and earn some $ please contact me.
