Merged How to install a language when using Kunena 2.0.2

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem. I've installed Kunena 2.0.2, but it is by default in English. I have downloaded the language pack I need, but I do not know how to install it. Does anyone know how to install a language pack?

Thanks in advance!

Just Install it from
www.kunena.org/download
Then press F5 to refresh the Forum-Page^^lg
If not work - what language do you want to have?lg

I was able to download the language pack and to extract it. After that, I was able to select the language I would like to use and install it, using the extension manager.

I got the message: Language pack installed succesfully!

But, the forum was not translated to the intended language. Do you know how to fix this?

Thanks for your quick response!

I do not understand the statement "the forum was not translated into the intended language". For example, if you have 100 messages written in English, installing the language pack will not translate the 100 messages for you.

Perhaps it may help to show us how, specifically, "the forum was not translated into the intended language"? :dry:

I too am having problems installing the language pack.
Following the example given above (install URL) where the URL is results in an error:-
Package Install: There were no files to install!

Trying the other methods:-

install from directory
JInstaller: :Install: Cannot find XML setup file
Path does not have a valid package.

upload package file
There was an error uploading this file to the server.

run install.script.php
no screen output & no action taken?

I must admit that I have never, myself, tried to have a forum where Kunena was translated into a different language. I must also concede that it should be a lot easier to find instructions in the Kunena Wiki that explain the specific steps involved. However, I think the key to helping you - who, like me, lacks the "experience" or cannot easily find help in the Wiki - is here:

I hope this helps
