Some of you have tried the screen that I wrote that diverts a person
to an install script if they try to run phpWebsite without running
setup.
The diagnostics on this screen are all in English. I think all the
other install instructions in README and docs/ files are also in
english.
I am ready to pretty up this screen prior to the 8.2 release. I
would also like to change the documentation that tells people:
" 5. phpWebSite has a completely web-based install - point your
browser to:
http://your_phpWebSite_powered_site.com/setup/
and follow the onscreen instructions.
I want to change it so it tells them to go to:
http://your_phpWebSite_powered_site.com
I want to continue to work on the diagnostics and explanations on
this screen, but if I put everything in TRANSLATE[[]] statements, it
will make updates, clarifications and additions quite difficult. I
think the difficulty of doing this would lead to the screen
containing lots less helpful information than it would otherwise.
I would like to just leave this screen in English, at least until
such time until all the other README and documentation files are put
into multiple languages. While websites have many users who do not
speak English, it is hard to see how someone who cannot read English
would be able to install and maintain a phpWebsite, since all the
instructions and support forums are in English. For this reason I
think it would be OK to present the diagnostic screen in English
only. It is only seen by the admin.
=============================================
Question One:
Can I leave this screen in English only?
Question Two:
Can I change the documentation to point users to this screen for
install?
