We are a country from Georgia, we need to install the Georgian language (ka) in the system, it is not listed in the language section, how should we do in this case?
We also need to link the journal to crossref (https://www.crossref.org/) to get the DOI code, how do we go about doing this?
OJS version: ojs-3.3.0-15
Hi @zviadi_beradze ,
General info about languages is available here: https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/multiling-guide/en/
If your language is not listed and needs translation then you have to check the translation guide: https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/translating-guide/en/
Regards, Primož
I have read the OJS translation instructions from your instructions.
I registered on the weblate website, where I saw that there is the Georgian language I need (ojs-ka.zip).
I downloaded the relevant files and uploaded them to /locale, /plugins, but the corresponding language did not appear in the site administrator’s list of languages.
I send the Georgian folder (ojs-ka.zip) and screenshots.
How should I proceed in this case?
ojs-ka.zip: ojs-ka.zip - Google Drive
Problem solved:
We find the required language at the address (weblate): https://translate.pkp.sfu.ca/languages/
We download the zip file containing the .po extension files, we upload these files to the server in the folder: locale/our_need_language (for example: locale/ka_GE)
In order for the language we need to appear in the ojs administrator, site properties (Site Settings), language section, install locale (if it is not already visible), we need to add the language we need to the locales.xml file in the registry folder on the server
If it turns out that all the words are not translated, we can correct them manually by adding the necessary entries to the file on the server: locale/we_required_language/locale.po (for example: locale/ka_GE/locale.po)
for example:
msgid “navigation.archives”
msgid “ნავიგაცია არქივში”
