Thanks Karsten, the link worked great. Now there are de-ch translations in Translatewiki. I can see how this could be turned into SMW/I18N/de-ch.json automatically. But in addition to that, some PHP must also be changed in order to add the new language to SMW. SMW/languages/SMW_LanguageDe_ch.php to add e.g. the "inheritance" from DE.
I made the changes locally but how/when do things like this get into a future SMW release? thx, michael On 12.01.2016 17:50, kghbln wrote: > Heiya, > > probably it is just a matter of adding something like this [0] for > de-ch.
