You can easily translate the Live Help Server Software by editing the Live Help locale files. The Live Help Server Software is currently only distributed in English. The Live Help Messenger Windows application is currently only available in English and can not be translated, it does however support multilingual chat requests using Unicode™ UTF-8.

You may translate Live Help by following these instructions:

  • Duplicate the /livehelp/locale/en/ directory and rename the new directory with your appropriate language code, eg. French (fr), Danish (da) - a complete list of language codes is available within /livehelp/locale/i18n.txt
  • You must then translate all the text within the /livehelp/locale/fr/guest.php and /livehelp/locale/fr/admin.php file to the specified language, we highly recommend that you use Microsoft Notepad. Please note you are not permitted to modify the copyright notices and version numbers within the language files.
  • When saving your translated language pack file you should save the file with UTF-8 encoding. Example: File Menu > Save As > Encoding > UTF-8
