Hi,

I downloaded My Share Locale because I want users to select their language when they login to the Alfresco share.

Unfortunately I cannot find any instructions how to install the add-on.

Can somebody explain to me how to install this add-on or point me to the right direction?

Thanks.

Hi,
the addon comes as an amp so you'll be able to install it  following these instructions:
http://docs.alfresco.com/4.2/tasks/amp-install.html
It is easier, if you're using Tomcat, to perform the following:<blockquote>For Tomcat, alternatively, run the apply_amps command in the Alfresco \bin directory, which applies all the AMP files that are located in the amps and amps_share directories.</blockquote>
Your original share.war will be backed up.

Regards,
Andrea

I performed the steps needed.
I unzipped AlfrescoMyShareLocale-master.zip and copied mysharelocale-extension.amp to /opt/alfresco-4.2.f/amps_share and I ran the apply_amps.sh script.

Below the result, but when I restart Alfresco I do not get a dropdown box for selecting a language.

Regards,

Frank

sudo bash apply_amps.sh
This script will apply all the AMPs in amps and amps-share to the alfresco.war and share.war files in /opt/alfresco-4.2.f/tomcat/webapps

Login page personalization used in My Share Locale module does not work with Alfresco 4.2.f.

You've installed the AMP successfully, but this module does not support your Alfresco version.

Dear Angel,

Thank you for your reply.

Is there any other way in Alfresco 4.2.f. to make this work?

Kind regards,

Frank

Hi Angel,

I read the instructions (bear in mind I am a newby and not a programmer). What do they mean with "Build the project."? And how do I add a language drop down box?

Kind regards,

Frank

Nobody can point me in the right direction? I would really like to add a language drop down box to the share login page. No clear solutions found.

Ragards,

Frank

Hello,
I'm using My Share Local module and it works fine, labels are displayed on the selected language.
Now I want to display some messages for users from my Java backed web script and I have a problem to get that langauge.
When I use
I18NUtil.getLocale()
the result is locale of my browser.
Does anyone knows how to get the selected value in Java class?

Best regards!
