[Koha-translate] First Post and First Question!

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi Sean,

the SQL files in the installer directory will only be run when first
installing Koha, but not again when updating. If you want to add
additional languages later, you have to alter the database directly at
the moment.

There is currently an open bug report for adding additional languages:
bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15067

Maybe looking at the patch there will be useful too.

Hope this helps,

Katrin

> It’s a pleasure to be a part of your community.  My name is Sean and I am setting up a library in Central Asia with Koha as the ILS.  We have many books in Central Asian languages, so my primary need is to configure Koha so that I can use the Advanced Search function to search for books in those languages.  At a later date, we may want to translate the web interface into another language, but for the time being the Russian port will do.  So my main question is how to add languages to the search function.  I did a little searching around and found the subtag_registry.sql file which seems to contain the language declarations that appear in the drop-down list for selecting a search language.  I added the following lines to that file for the Tajik language:
