I have 3 languages in my website: english (default), Italian and German.

Why he should spanish Joomla! Core language installed ? Okey... I see just read that one other user(jeff_j_dunlap) tried to steal the topic... please do your own topic's....

yes, please. I think we are messing up the topic.
I have these 3 languages (for front-end, not the back-end) in joomla.
Shell I install the languages in my backend too?

How can I completerly remove kunena in order to make a clan-install?
or
how can I add another language to kunena 1.6?

With all due respect, if you re-read the topic you should notice that I did not steal the topic, but am simply contributing to it since my problem is almost identical to bredchic's issue.

Thank you for your response. This is what I did but it did not work:

- I installed the Joomla core (front end) language and set it to default from the 'Language Manager'.

- Since Kunena was still in English, I reinstalled Kunena. Kunena still in English.

- I decided to look in the directory below and did not see any directory installed for Spanish:
..\components\com_kunena\template\default\language\en-GB

- I relaxed security to a minimum on the site just to make sure that it was not an access issue.

- I reinstalled Kunena and still no Kunena Spanish files. Kunena still in English.


I wouldn't mind manually extracting the language files from the Kunena installation but I am unsure what steps to take or if anything else needs to be edited.

Best Regards,

Jeff

true. It's the same problem.

I can't say why the following files were not installed even after reinstalling but this is how I manually resolved my issue:

In this directory (choose your own language of course):
..\language\es-ES

add these files (choose your own language of course):
es-ES.com_kunena.ini
es-ES.com_kunena.tpl_default.ini
es-ES.com_kunena.tpl_example.ini

The files can be extracted manually from the Kunena 1.6 compressed files.

Your Kunena front end will be in the language of your choice.


P.S. It may be that I had problems because I upgraded my site from K1.5 to K1.6, just guessing though.
