If you use Effority free user directory and need to localize it here is a solution.

Modified By Yehuda Tiram, on 9/2/2008 1:35:31 AM)

Effority free user directory is a cool module and Effority is generouse enough to put a free version with the source.

You can download it from http://www.effority.net

Thank you Effority guys.

If you use Effority free user directory and need to localize it here is a solution.

It is actually a workaround, but it works.

Tested only on UserDirectory 01.00.03

1. In the file View.ascx.resx add the values " Username.Text " etc. (and create the local View.ascx.he-IL.resx file according to the language you need)

You can use it to change the columns headers if you want.

2. In the file View.ascx.vb replace the lines:

For Each profileProperty As DotNetNuke.Entities.Profile.ProfilePropertyDefinition In Me.ProfilesPropertyCollectionToShow

sb.Append(String.format("<td nowrap style='cursor:pointer' onclick='Sort(""{0}"")' class='{1}'>{2}</td>", CleanColumnName(profileProperty.PropertyName), CssHead, profileProperty.PropertyName))

With these lines:

Dim HeaderLocalization

For Each profileProperty As DotNetNuke.Entities.Profile.ProfilePropertyDefinition In Me.ProfilesPropertyCollectionToShow

Select Case profileProperty.PropertyName

Case "Username"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Username.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Email"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Email.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "FirstName"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("FirstName.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Prefix"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Prefix.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "MiddleName"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("MiddleName.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "LastName"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("LastName.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Suffix"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Suffix.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Unit"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Unit.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Street"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Street.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "City"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("City.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Region"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Region.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Country"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Country.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "PostalCode"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("PostalCode.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Telephone"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Telephone.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Cell"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Cell.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Fax"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Fax.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Website"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Website.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "IM"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("IM.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "Biography"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("Biography.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "TimeZone"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("TimeZone.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case "PreferredLocale"

HeaderLocalization = Localization.GetString("PreferredLocale.Text", LocalResourceFile)

Case Else

HeaderLocalization = profileProperty.PropertyName

End Select

sb.Append(String.format("<td nowrap style='cursor:pointer' onclick='Sort(""{0}"")' class='{1}'>{2}</td>", CleanColumnName(profileProperty.PropertyName), CssHead, HeaderLocalization))

I would send you the files but the module's license says that it cannot be distributed so it is impossible.

Anyways, all you have to do is to go to your site via FTP to /DesktopModules/effority.UserDirectory

1. Find the file View.ascx.vb and change it as described abpove.

2. Then go to /DesktopModules/effority.UserDirectory/App_LocalResources

a. Find the file View.ascx.resx

b. Copy it to your computer.

c. Open it and add the values you want for English headers. Look in the code above for the possible values. They are actually referred to the profile properties.

d. Save it

e. Upload it back to the same place you took it from (it will trash the original so make a copy before you do that).

f. In your computer copy the file View.ascx.resx in order to create a new file based on it

g. Change the name to your language in the following manner View.ascx.he-IL.resx Note that all I had to do to make it localize to Hebrew is to add ".he-IL " (without the quotes) in the middle before the extension.

h. Change the values to your language and save it

i. Upload it to the same place you took it from

That is it.

hi guys,

sending the source directly to use would be useful, right? ;) so we could publish it in a last 1.0.x release.

the upcoming 1.1.x version already solves this issue ... get the installable source (.net 3.5) here:

http://www.codeplex.com/userdirectory/SourceControl/ListDownloadableCommits.aspx

Best,

Re: If you use Effority free user directory and need to localize it here is a solution.

offf i can do anything.It must be a simple solution for this problem.

First : i find view.ascx.vb but it is in DekstopModule/MarketShare and i think it isn't the right 'view.ascx' which you say.

if it is right,where i replace that code in it.It hasn't got a similar code to replace.

i want to explain my site again:

i make it using dnn starter kit.And i added 3 modules in c#.i add languages HOST->Languages->installlanguages->return->that is it.

when i return back i see a choice part for languages->English and Turkish.

But i remove it to server when i want to add languages i take a Warning which i wrote you.

WARNING:

Endjob Creating/Updating locale

Then i said to myself "it is only a warning not an error, return back:)"

but this time there isnt that languages part.

I want to have two languages to choosing.Not only turkish or english.Both of them,i want to see

Please help me but explain it using a simple way
