[Solved] How do we create a language-specific forum?

Post by Clytie »

Hi everyone :)

A few months back, I was testing the Vietnamese interface to this phpBB forum, in preparation for opening a Vietnamese-language user sub-forum here.

Unfortunately, I became too sick, for some months, to continue, and meanwhile, I have forgotten with whom I was setting all this up. We had a test forum with the translated interfaces.

Now I'm back in action, and my team is testing our full interface and help translation of OpenOffice.org 3.0, we're very keen to get a forum opened, since we have a lot to talk about.

We would very much like to keep the main structure of this forum in our subforum. Our members have requested:
  • Board Index
    *International
    ...
    **Tiếng Việt
    + Cài đặt và Thiết lập
    + Việt hoá
    + Writer
    + Calc
    + Impress
    + Draw
    + Math
    + Base
    + Phần mở rộng
The top-level item says "Vietnamese", the next two "Install and Setup" and "Localization", and the lowest level is "Extensions". We have already had a lot of enquiries on the mailing lists, so we would really like to direct them to this forum, and start publicizing it as a language-friendly forum for OpenOffice.org users.

Virtually all of our users will be new users, since this release is our first with a complete UI and Help translation. So we hope to use this forum to support our users.

Thankyou for your help with this. :)

Hi, if DrewJensen or TerryE don't reply, feel free to PM them.

I move your thread to the Site feedback forum, OOPM is not for that kind of question.

The OP also put a message on the NL mailing list at OO.o, hit my inbox this morning and I will follow up there with him and then get back to everyone here. Remember that at the moment the OP doesn't have access to this board and can't see ( at least I don't think so ) the actual responses.

Hmm, I'm quite sure I'd moved the thread in the Site feedback and not in the Forum issues. So I move it to the site feedback forum.
