Hi,

I am fairly new to administrating this software, my predecessor who initially put it in place no longer works with us.

So i updated our Hesk version to the latest version 2.6.7 and update the mods for Hesk version to 2.6.3 as well.

I downloaded the french language pack for 2.6.x version of Mods for Hesk, published by Klemen from this link : http://www.hesk.com/languages/26/fr.zip.

The installation of Hesk and Mods for Hesk went well without any errors. But for the french translation to past the folder test and to be installed correctly, i had to copy and add 3 additionnal email files from the english email language folder : calendar_reminder.txt, overdue_ticket.txt , and verify_email.txt.

When using the french translation, the tab menu "Calendrier" (Calendar) and all the sub-menus under the tab "Outils" (Tools), they become invisible but they can be clicked on if we pass over the space where they are supposed to be. (see picture below)

When switching back to english language using the same web browser, everything is where its supposed to be and clearly visible. Which makes me suspect that something might be wrong with the french translation or i could be completly wrong. (see picture below)

I know it isn't much of a real problem, but could someone please help me out to make the calendar menu and the tools sub-menu visible?

Thank you.

Mods for HESK includes several language strings that are not part of the HESK language files. I recommend you do the following:
  1. Download the latest French language pack for Mods for HESK by going to https://mods-for-hesk.mkochcs.com/download.php. The latest French release at this time is for version 2.3.2 (which is a bit out-of-date).
  2. Copy the language strings from lines 24 to 188 in text.php in the "en" language folder, and paste them directly below $hesklang['EMAIL_HR'] in your french folder's text.php file.
  3. Replace the English text with the translated French text (do not change the name between the [ ]s to the left of the = sign; only change the value on the right-hand side
  4. Save and test

I did as you suggested, and it worked out great.

If it can help someone else and for those interested with the little bit of the french translation i have done (from line 24 - 186, it might not be 100% perfect french grammar, closer to 95% ^^, but i reused most of the same vocabulary already present in the original translation for consistency), here is the link of my text.php file :

Thanks again Mkoch227.
