Attention: Changes in language files don’t affect graphics containing texts. Note 1: If you don’t check any language in “Visible Languages”, your site guests or members will have access to Default language only. To maintain Multilanguage interface system uses language files which you can set yourself by choosing necessary language and pressing “Edit selected langfile”. Make changes in the pop-up window and press “Save changes”. Press “Close window” if you don’t want to save changes.

Special cases

1. How to enable cyrillic support in MatchMaking script. There may be a case when messaging system, any account information, gratitudes etc. — all theese fields becomes full of question marks when you try to input text in Russian.

There might be 2 reasons for it:
1) The encoding for the files is UTF 8 and you need to edit the language file from admin mode, then save. The encoding shouldn’t be broken then.

2) The server has another encoding setting win1250 and the encoding for UTF 8 is broken. So in this case please contact your hosting company and ask to change encoding for your account into UTF – 8
