Hi,

The post build are not performed by the framework. This is a part of any Visual Studio project. I use VS in French, but I will try to guide you. May be some words would be differents! Open the VS solution. In the solution explorer windows, select the first project (DotNetNuke.WWStore.Admin) and expand it (click on the plus sign). Double-click on the "Properties" item. Now, you must have the properties page on screen with height tabs to the left (Application, Build, Build Events, Resources, Parameters, References Path, Asignment?, Web). Select the "Build Events" tab, you must have a text box with a button above twice. The first group is for insert PRE build commands, the second is for POST build commands. This is the place you must inspect in each project for understood what is done by the post-build procedures.

When a module is "well designed", you can translate it directly inside DotNetNuke. You do NOT need source version, nor any specific tool. Connect to your dnn instance with a host account. Go to the menu Host > Languages. Before being able to translate ANY module for a given locale, you must install the corresponding DotNetNuke Language Pack. If the language pack do not exist for your language, you must at least add a new locale definition for the target locale. When this is done, click on "Language Editor" to the bottom left. On top center screen, select the target locale in the "Available Locales" list. On the left part you will find a tree, expand: Local Resources > DesktopModules > WWStore. This folder contains two or tree sub folders (tree if you have installed WWStore skin objects). Open every sub folders one by one and translate every resources for every .ascx files! When this lllooonnnggg task will be done, return to the menu Host > Languages and click on "Create Language Pack". Select your locale in the "Resource Locale" list, click on the "Module" radio button for "Resource Pack Type", in the modules list above select the five WWStore modules (WWStore Account, WWStore Admin, WWStore Menu, WWStore Mini Cart, WWStore StoreFront), choose a name for your language pack then click on "Create". It's done! ;-)

If you modify source and/or tables, YOU MUST change the version number inside every projects. It's too long to explain why, in short: the core DNN installer do not apply some modifications if the version number do not change!

What do you want to know about the zip package?

Hi Gilles,

Instead of creating a separated language pack of the WWStore Module in my native language, i could contain the additional language files inside my custom WWStore Installation .zip (and change the .dnn file) and deploy the WWStore and language enhancements at once. Just like you have done with the French language pack. Is that correct?

Thanx again for providing all the necessary information concerning the custom building of WWStore.

I will apply your advices and let you know if everything works as planed.

Also, can i upload the language pack after the translation in my native language (Greek) to the DNN site, in order for other members to use it?

best regards

One additional note on my last response.

I' ve just checked that you don't use the French language resource files on the installation folder, rather, you are using them on the development folder.

Maybe it is better to follow the language pack solution, so that you do not have to add the resource files and change the manifets file on the installation folder manually.

Hi,

No, no no! I'm using this facility because it's more easy to translate and verify localization code in real time. With two locales at the same time, I can verify more things in one time. That's all. In your case, I will be better to create a "standard" language pack.

You can send me your standard "Greek" language pack. Look for my email in my profile (click on my surname in the left column).

Hello,

I did the executed these steps exactly like you said it but when I open the WWStore.sln into VS2005 I keep getting this error:

"The project file 'C:\DotNetNuke_2\Website\DesktopModules\WWStore\Providers\DotNetNuke.WWStore.Providers.csproj' cannot be opened.
The project type is not supported by this installation."

any ideas?

thanks in advance
