LJXP: International Edition

With version 1.3, support for non-English translations was added to LiveJournal Crossposter. Below is a section on each language available. The text will initially be posted in English. If anyone is capable of translating it into the language with which it is concerned, please contact me with a translation.

Russian (Russia)—ru_RU

To add support for Russian to LJXP, download http://ebroder.net/plugins/download/ljxp/ru_RU and copy the complete contents of that file to your wp-content directory. You will also have to have Wordpress set to operate in Russian. For more information on operating WP in Russian, consult MyWordPress.ru.

One note in particular: LiveJournal does not currently support tags with Unicode names. If your categories have Cyrillic names (or contain any non-ASCII characters, for that matter), you have two options. The first is to disable tagging LJ posts, which can be done from the LJXP Options page. The other involves manually altering the LJXP code. Serge Matveenko details the process on his blog. Built-in support for RusToLat may be contained in the next version of LJXP, but I am ideally trying to find a broader, non-language-specific transliteration tool (although I doubt that I will find one).

Spanish (Spain)—es_ES

I have received a mostly complete translation of LJXP into Spanish. I have to get translations for a few of phrases introduced in more recent versions. I am working to compile the translation file, at which point I will offer a version of LJXP in Spanish.

    Somehow russian version doesn’t work :(
    When publishing it gives me:
    Something went wrong - 211 : Client error: Invalid or malformed tag list

    fireton -
    Sorry, when I was writing this page up, I completely forgot about that issue. Your error is the result of LJ not accepting non-ASCII tag names. Check out the second paragraph of the Russian section.
