Under .../app/local/ create de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/ folders You can use German dialects also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2:DE With poedit application create default.po and default.mo under .../ de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/ You can set poedit to reference you code directory and fetch all strings inside __() Pay attention the poedit default for gettext function is _(), one underscore only, cake use two underscores. So don't forget to set this value. After you have all your strings in English you use poedit to translate.
Poedit is your friend now so take the time to learn the application http://www.poedit.net/ In my application I use code that I copied from Agendami project http://sourceforge.net/projects/agendami/ in app_controller place a language function <code> function language () { $lang = $this -> params['url']['lang']; $url = "/".$this -> params['url']['backurl']; $this -> Cookie -> write ('language', $lang); $this -> redirect ($url); } </code> in /app/bootstrap.php <code> Configure::write('Config.language', 'fr_FR'); </code> in my default layout I support English, French and Korean. <code> <?php $url0=$this-> params['url']['url']; $url1 = $html -> url (array ('controller'=>'users','action'=>'language'), true); $img = $html -> image ('/img/flags/us.png', array ('alt' => 'USA', 'border' => '0')); $url = $url1 . "?lang=eng&backurl=" . $url0; e ($html -> link ($img, $url, array ('title' => 'USA'), null, false)." "); $img = $html -> image ('/img/flags/ko.png', array ('alt' => 'Korea', 'border' => '0')); $url = $url1 . "?lang=ko_KR&backurl=" . $url0; e ($html -> link ($img, $url, array ('title' => 'Korea'), null, false)." "); $img = $html -> image ('/img/flags/fr.png', array ('alt' => 'French', 'border' => '0')); $url = $url1 . "?lang=fr_FR&backurl=" . $url0; e ($html -> link ($img, $url, array ('title' => 'French'), null, false)." "); ?> </code> famfamfam contain a collection of flag images http://www.famfamfam.com/ I think that all.
