Dustie,
the pack has not been updated / re-submitted as yet. The changes were just too few to justify this.
You still need to read through the thread and implement bug fixes / changes from post #3 onwards. They are really very minor bits and pieces, so don't hesitate to *attack* them :smile: just do them one by one and don't rush ....
Just noted that stevanicus had 'updated' and re-submitted the pack on or after 24 Nov 2010.Quote:

If anyone has downloaded the pack from 01 Dec 2010 onwards and you are experiencing the problem with Umlauts not being displayed properly please post your findings here.
Hi
First of all thank you for your reply here. Ahhhmm making the changes in our case was not quite as easy as it could have been. :(
I had a version that was uploaded before the 24th November. :(
Before I noticed this mistake, we had already transfered the Datas (products, customers etc) from an Oscommerce shop. After we made the changes, as suggested in this Forum, all the squares changed to the symbols used for the umlaut, it did not automatically change them to the correct letter :( This meant we either had to change them all manually, or go through the whole process and retransfer the Datas and of course redoing the whole layout.
But....we did it and it's all working as it should......SO, thank you for the translations and updates. I know it's voluntary work, and it's appreciated, despite the hick ups from time to time :)
Yep, it's a work in progress. I am adapting stevanicus' change back to iso-8859-1 ... instead of utf8. Don't know why I never stumbled upon this issue in first place... should have known better:yuck:Quote:

Just finding it interesting how much of my mother language German I have actually forgotten - been an Aussie for too long I guess.
I am also incorporating a few language files pertaining to Better Together, Rewards Points module and Zen Lightbox. The original modules still need to be installed separately to make these mods work.
Well I am sure glad you do it and not me,as I have the same problem with English. I am in the visa versa situation to you. Me Aussie living in Switzerland so really dependant on you polishing up your old german to keep this pack up to date :D
Reckon we both now speak "Gerglish" :laugh:
I will keep on eye out for it. How do updates affect our exsiting files?
We could agree to "Engman" :laugh::laugh:Quote:

Anyone knows what is wrong here?
The German letters with 2 dots on top of them don't display correctly.
If I use UTF-8, the words from the database do not display correctly, but words from the PHP files display correctly.
If I use iso-8859-1 the words from the database displays correctly, but the words from the PHP files desplay wrong.
My site is www.nisami.net
For instance the word Änliche from the PHP file is correct and the word Möbel from the categories table in the database is not correct.
The coding is here utf-8.
If I change it to iso-8859-1 the opposite happens.
This is only with the German language.
It does not happen with the French or Norwegian
You may have installed this version:Quote:

I have attached a .txt file containing all the utf-8 codes for the German "Umlauts" - useful for anyone doing their own translations.
