Hi,

It's pretty simple. If you already installed another language on your joomla (joomla translations, not component language files), let's say German one, just go to FTP, navigate to: /language/de-DE/ and upload the german jomsocial language file to the german language folder. Format of the language file name should be as follows: de-DE.com_community.ini just like the original file is en-GB.com_community.ini.

To sum up.
1. Install Joomla translation (from backend: extensions > language manager) de-DE [example]
2. Login to FTP
3. Navigate to the /language/de-DE/
4. Upload your German language file there.
5. Done.

I hope that helps.



- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements: bit.ly/WyZyrL
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job: bit.ly/10OzfPN
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

- Use the "Thank You" feature on any post that helped you
