In order to get the OpenEMM interface working in other languages than English or German, first the file used to provide all text strings has to be translated.

Currently, in path /home/openemm/webapps/openemm/htdocs/WEB-INF/classes there are three language related files:
messages_en.properties - contains the English messages
messages_de.properties - contains the German messages
messages.properties - fallback version (contains english messages)

If you would like to use a different language for the OpenEMM interface, please translate one of the localized files - either messages_en.properties or messages_de.properties - to your desired language. After saving the file and restarting OpenEMM, you can test the new messages by choosing the corresponding language for your user ("Settings"/"User"/"Language").

If you submit the translated message file to us, we will be glad to include it into the next release of OpenEMM so that all users can benefit from your work - thank you!
