Re: [GeoNetwork-devel] Adding a new language

[Mats E. <mat...@gi...>]

Thanks for valuable hints, Francois!
I have extracted the localised files from Transifex and named them
according to the other files in the ..catalog/locales folder. Then I have
transplanted the files into my running GN 4 instance, and added swe .-
Swedish to the CatController.js file. Then I created a new UI and added swe
- sv to the list of languages. Just to check, I also removed some other
languages. After saving settings, swedish (Svenska) appears in the drop
down language selector and the ones I removed are gone. So far all is well.
However, if I select Svenska for language, the UI reverts to English.
Selecting any other language makes the UI change at once. If I try to go
from say Francais to Svenska, I get English.
Apparently there is some other flag or config file that needs to be set or
activated, but I cannot figure out where.
I believe I am on the right track - just need the key to the final gate.

Thankful for any hint - Mats.E
