How to create a new language
If you would like to see Download Ninja in your language and want to help, you can create translation file from within the program and and test it without the program having to be recompiled!
From within the program (build 21 or above) click on Settings and next to English in the Interface Language section click on the settings Gear to open the language editor.
Create a new language
- With the language editor open click on the NEW button to create a new language
- Enter the name of the language (i.e. Spanish)
- Enter the local name (i.e. Español).
- Press the SAVE button to update language with the new name
Set the app language
Back in the main Download Ninja window you should now see your new language in the Interface Language combo box. Select the language you just created.
Start adding translations!
The translation file currently consists of 300+ text strings that need translating into the destination language. If a value does not have a translation Download Ninja will use the default (English) value.
NOTE: Some of the default (English) text have embedded place holders such as {0} or {1}.. this is where some other text will be inserted by the code, such as queue name, error code etc.. if you are in doubt about what any of them mean please ask at info@downloadninja.com.
Update the Interface
You can see the translation in progress by clicking on the Save button from time to time, this will not only save your work but also update the main interface with any translations that you have added.
Export the file
Once you are happy with the translation click on the Export button and save the file to your hard drive. Once exported send us the file to info@downloadninja.com and we’ll check it over. Once we are happy it will be added as an embedded language inside NDM.
Email me the file!
Send me a quick email to hello@ninjadownloadmanager.com including the translation file and we will add it to the next build.
