    I need some advice on language support. I installed gengo to offer my Japanese friends an option to read or blog in Japanese.

    After I activated gengo, I couldn’t set my default 1st language as en_US, wordpress becomes inaccessible but works ok when I set the 1st language to Japanese and 2nd language to en_US, even so I get ??? displayed on the home page.

    I looked around the forum but still have yet to find anything to solve this.

  • Did you define en_US as your default in the wp-config.php file?

    Thanks moshu,

    I’ve tried added en_US in WPLANG in wp-config but the site is still having a “redirecting error”

    Or do I need a .mo file? I can’t seem to locate it in my wp folder. Is that the cause of this?

    A .mo file for what? For English? No, you don’t. But you need for Japanese, of course.
    It does NOT come with WP. You have to download it and install it in a folder / languages/ under wp-includes.

    Is Gengo working with WP 2.2? I didn’t check yet.

    I’ve looking thru the documentation for a .mo file for Japanese but couldn’t find any. Do you where I can find one? Thanks heaps

    Thanks heaps! Took me a while but I found the .mo file I needed and installed it into wp-includes/languages.

    Why is it that I still see ??? under Language?

    Hey, I’m back with the same problem again. I set default language to en_US in gengo and wp-config.php but page is still not loading

    Oh well somewhat have it working now. I’ve just added Jap as a new language and set blog default language to Eng and in wp-config, the page works fine.

    I realized if I remove Japanese and leave en_US as the sole language, the problem returns.

    Any help to get rid of ??? will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I think the problem is that none of your posts is marked for any language. Try to edit a post and on the right bottom there are is the Gengo stuff.

    Ok I changed it couple of times back and forth and this was what happened.

    With default set to Eng and in wp-config, page doesn’t load at all.

    As above but I added Japanese language as a 2nd language
    I got the page back ok BUT
    1) with no blog entries and a message that “sorry you are looking for something that isn’t here”
    2) load of errors displayed on the right section Warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in /home/learns2/public_html/community/wp-content/plugins/gengo/gengo.php on line 672

    But for once I see English under languages and after I click on it. Bingo! Everything was back! Go figure.

    I noticed my url has a “/?language+ja+en” on it, but I’m just happy the site is fine now.

    But Japanese language is still displayed as ???, has this got to do with the UTF-8 encoding?

    Probably, yes. Is it happening in the template files or in posts?

    If template files: make sure you save the files after editing with utf-8 encoding.

    It’s displayed as ??? in gengo after installing as a 2nd lang, also on dashboard and on the homepage under language.

    It’s everywhere. But Japanese characters are ok on blog entries.

    Thanks heaps
