Joostina ENGLISH Language Translation

This is an updated english.php file that replaces the version in the joostina stable CMS 1.2.0 zipfile. This will largely resolve the translations from Russian to English. Be aware that the sample content and category information supplied with the default installation is still in Russian and so I advise you to either delete it all or not bother to install sample data.

The language translation is incomplete (85%) but this file makes the system eminently workable.

Put it in the \language folder using your ftp client.

As well as applying this file you will need to use the "edit administrator component menu" option to change the remaining component and icon names in to english. Joostina provides the functionality of editing the icons and menu options from the front end. This is great but it does mean a tiny bit of manual labour! If you need assistance in this contact me.

The following image shows Joostina straight out of the box with the translation file applied and the administrator component menu edited to English. The control panel  icons are editable in Joostina and in the demo below you can see that I have copied these over from Joomla 1.0 so I have a familiar interface (the default Joostina icons are more like those for Joomla 1.5).

(Joostina is a development path from Joomla 1.0.15)
