WordPress MU

Hi im using the swedish .Mo file to translate my wpmu-admin, it worked up and untill a few months ago, i think it was about juli when it stoped working, does anyone have the same problem, or any idea on what might be going on?

i have created a "languages" folder in wp-include, and inserted my.mo files.
i have in wp-config.php inserted this line: define ('WPLANG', 'sv_SE'); and in mu-admin-options i have selected swedish as default. altough default language is still english, i can select the swedish file in the drop down, but even if i do and save my settings, language is still english, i think this problem occured when i switched over to 1.2.4 (i am now in 1.2.5a)

I'm definetely not an expert on the multiple language bit. However try tossing the .mo file in "wp-content/languages". I think that is what WP is migrating to instead of "wp-includes/languages".

Thanks,
Andrew

Hi andrew, tried your sugestion, but this only caussed the .mo file to disapear from language-dropdown chooise.

Any other ideas?

this is driving me nuts, anyone have any ideas?

my wp-config.php says:
('WPLANG', 'sv_SE'); is there any error in this?

and my .mo file is named: sv_SE.mo

edit: sorry for the double post, ment to edit.

well ok found the solution:

in wp-includes/gettext.php

fix this: (row 106)

$this->enable_cache = $enable_cache;

// $MAGIC1 = (int)0x950412de; //bug in PHP 5.0.2
$MAGIC1 = (int) - 1794895138;
// $MAGIC2 = (int)0xde120495; //bug
$MAGIC2 = (int) - 569244523;
// 64-bit fix
$MAGIC3 = (int) 2500072158;

$this->STREAM = $Reader;
$magic = $this->readint();
if ($magic == ($MAGIC1 & 0xFFFFFFFF) || $magic == ($MAGIC3 & 0xFFFFFFFF)) { // to make sure it works for 64-bit platforms
$this->BYTEORDER = 0;
} elseif ($magic == ($MAGIC2 & 0xFFFFFFFF)) {
$this->BYTEORDER = 1;
} else {
$this->error = 1; // not MO file
return false;
}

WITH THIS:

$this->enable_cache = $enable_cache;

// $MAGIC1 = (int)0x950412de; //bug in PHP 5
$MAGIC1 = (int) - 1794895138;
// $MAGIC2 = (int)0xde120495; //bug
$MAGIC2 = (int) - 569244523;
$MAGIC3 = (int) 2500072158; // <- 64 BIT FIX: ADD THIS LINE!

$this->STREAM = $Reader;
$magic = $this->readint();
if ($magic == $MAGIC1 || $magic == $MAGIC3) { // <- 64 BIT FIX: CHANGE THIS LINE!
$this->BYTEORDER = 0;
} elseif ($magic == $MAGIC2) {
$this->BYTEORDER = 1;
} else {
$this->error = 1; // not MO file
return false;
}

please include this in the new release.

Best regards - Fredrik
