It is not what I would have guessed either. :-) See for example the i18n/plone-el.po file within the plone.app.locales package. > I am not sure > that with this method i can translate my Content Type. > Then i tried to follow the documentation on Plone.org about > internationalization and localization but it was not descriptive > enough to help me this way. > So i want anyone who cans, to help my on this or to propose me any > tutorial that is on the web. > > I am looking forward for any help on this! > Thnx in advance. This has some good info on how to edit zope page templates with i18n in mind: http://plone.org/documentation/kb/i18n-for-developers You will need the i18ndude package to fetch translatable strings from the page templates and python code and put them in a pot file, and update the po translation files of each language. Information about i18ndude is here: http://plone.org/documentation/manual/developer-manual/internationalization-i18n-and-localization-l10n/translating-text-in-code/i18ndude/ And in general this chapter from the developer manual looks to be the best place to start: http://plone.org/documentation/manual/developer-manual/internationalization-i18n-and-localization-l10n -- Maurits van Rees Programmer, Zest Software ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
