    Hi everyone,
    i am having trouble enabling other languages for buddypress. I am translating greek and a few days back i managed to make the translation work but now i can do it again.

    I put the .mo and .po files into the /wp-content/languages/ directory and then edited the wp-config.php file on wordpress’s root and added a define(‘WPLANG’,'buddypress-el’);

    The only other language line in the config is for wordpress and greek define(‘WPLANG’,'el’); which works perfectly.

    I also tried to install the french language files just to make sure that there wasn’t something wrong with the greek files.

    Anyone knows what am i doing wrong? How can i troubleshoot what is happening?

    No, set WPLANG to ‘el’, just like if you weren’t using BuddyPress. You can’t define WPLANG twice, it won’t work. You’ll need a WordPress translation loaded, as well as a BuddyPress one.
