Translating VocaDB

Overview

Main parts of the VocaDB user interface are translatable. This guide is for you If you wish to help translating the interface into your language.

Sorry, at the moment there's some manual work involved, and you need some technical expertise. Please contact me if you need help.

Steps

  1. Download Zeta resource editor or Simple resource editor.
  2. Download the .resx files from the VocaDB source control. Most of the resources are under these folders: Web\App_GlobalResources, Web\Resources and Model\Resources (including subfolders). You only need the files ending with .resx and no other dots in the name, for example AlbumCollectionStatusNames.resx, you don't need AlbumCollectionStatusNames.fi.resx or AlbumCollectionStatusNames.Designer.cs.
  3. Open the .resx files in the editor and edit translations. You can do this properly and add your translations in new files according to the language you're translating, but editing the original files is ok as well.
  4. Send me the edited files somehow. I'll check and apply them.
