Enable Joomla to write in Indian languages

[Tanmaya]

Here is how you can enable Joomla to write in Indian languages.

Step 1:Install indiaPlugin for tinyMCE

Upload files to hosting server,
• Download the India Plugin
• Extract this file in a folder named indiaplugin.
• Now FTP the indiaplugin folder and all files inside it, to “plugins\editors\tinymce\jscripts\tiny_mce\plugins ” in case of Joomla 1.5.x
Modify the ‘tinymce.php‘ file
• Edit tinymce.php file in “editors\tinymce”.
In Joomla 1.0.x
find

$buttons2 = implode( ‘, ‘, $buttons2 );

or go to line number 250.

In case of Joomla 1.5.x
find

$buttons2[] = ‘forecolor’;

or goto line number 190.

Add following lines at specified line numbers

$plugins[] = 'indiaplugin';
$buttons3[] = 'indiaplugin;

'
• Save the file.

Now its done, login to Joomla administrator control panel, confirm tinyMCE, if a button on tinyMCE toolbar is visible, Smile! You have finished the first step.



Step 2: Now construct Joomla to show Indian language

It’s simple, you’d have template with charset set to UTF8.
If you don’t know about it. Just open your site in web browser and view its source code, look for following in the page,

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>

If it is not in the page, then just insert above line to “index.php” file in Joomla template in front end along with the administrator template.
Now to complete the entire procedure, just make a new language file in your language and you are done.
