Truly yours,

Thank you to the Japanese localisation team for all your hard work.
There is one thing I've noticed and that is that the security patches for 1.3.0.x don't seem to have been included. Details of the fixes are here:

http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43579

All patches after this (i.e. for 1.3.5, 1.3.6) have been included.
I'd recommend anyone using the Japanese version to make manually implement the changes listed in the thread above.
Cheers,
Tagawa

Hi, tagawa.

Shinchi,

Any word on this yet?

When the day of release is decided, I announce it here.

Best regards,

SHINCHI, Takahiro

Ok Shinchi,

Thanks!

Shinchi,

I have been looking into a lot of this code of your pack and also trying to make it to 1.3.6. I have some questions for you.

1st of all, is there a reason that the pack is just being made for 1.3.0.2? Why not 1.3.6 or even 1.3.7, but as 1.3.7 doesn't support multi language ezpages, I am staying away from that until it does.

Then in going through the code of the latest Japanese pack I notice a lot of files that have blank space at the end of the file. After the closing of the php statements, there are one to two blank spaces at the end of the file and I know that this can cause errors. Not on all of them but on some, I would check.

I know you guys are working hard to make it function well in Japanese and I appreciate it, just trying to help out too.

I think I will post a beta version of 1.3.6 in Japanese up, that way everyone can work on making it work as best as it can.

Thanks,
Godspeed

Shinchi,
I guess I am going to beat you to the punch here. Saw this came out yesterday
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.jp/zencart-jp/25003/zen-cart-v1.3.0.2-l10n-jp-2.zip

I still am wondering why no 1.3.6 or something....is there a big jump to that that makes it hard to do the language...I am going to use what you guys have made here and try to take it to 1.3.6. Thanks for getting this out!

Hi, Godspeed.

Sorry for my slowly reply.

Yes. We, Zen-Cart.JP released v1.3.0.2-l10n-jp-2 at 4/17.
Sorry, the announce is late. I think it better that our new package(v1.3.0.2-l10n-jp-2) is anncouced this forum after the package is contributed Zen-Cart.COM.

The package has 1.3.6 and 1.3.7's security upgrade which we found by checking and investigating souce code.

Thank you for you point. I schedule this fix in next our package development.

We, Zen-Cart.JP adopts the policy of going in the minor upgrade originally repeating the function enhancing and the bug fix based on 1.3.0.2 repeatedly.
As for the difference that we thought to be important among upgrades such as 1.3.6 and 1.3.7, we want to plan to include it in our minor upgrade development. However, the version name changes into our package in that case as 1.3.0.2- l10n-jp-X.

Thanks for getting this out!

Thank you. Enjoy!

Just an update, there is an alternative pack based on this pack but updated for 1.3.7...more of a drop in pack.

Hi, CrystalKoi.

Thank you for your announcement.

Can your package be used to upgrade from v1.3.0.2-l10n-jp-2 to 1.3.7 which has japanese localization functions?
Or, do it become an original package of making to Japanese installed in v1.3.7?

Because I am not installing your package, wrong understanding might be done still.

regards,

SHINCHI, Takahiro

Shinchi,

I am having a hard time understanding your question. The pack is meant to be used with 1.3.7. As a drop in Pack. In this pack we have address order options and will be adding other options soon, such as email file changes. It is a beta pack and all help would be wonderful. The goal of it was to build a pack with the people who are using it. The v1.3.0.2-l10n-jp-2 is not a bad option at all, and we have taken many things and learned many things from that pack. We are just here to develop another option that is easier for the user to update and can be installed with options the user wants to use.

If this dose not answer you question you can ask me in Japanese and I think I could understand that better. Have a great day and please let me know.

Regards

Shinchi,
I am guessing that you guys monitor and update the https://www.zen-cart.jp page, am I right. I was looking through that and well, you guys are being used for AV downloads.
Here is a link to where, I would fix this.
