Die Einrichtung und ersten Schritte mit JoomFish sind manchmal eine kleine Herausforderung. Wir versuchen immer diese Schritte zu vereinfachen was aber nur mit sehr großem Aufwand gelingt, da auch die Problemstellung von mehrsprachigen Webseiten sehr vielseitig ist. Der im PHP Magazin veröffentlichte Artikel beschreibt diese ersten Schritte und gibt eine einfache Einführung in die Nutzung der Erweiterung JoomFish.

1: I have this parse error when I click on Control Panel:
Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_OLD_FUNCTION' or `T_FUNCTION' or `T_VAR' or `'}'' in c:\program files\easyphp1-8\www\administrator\components\com_joomfish\classes\JCacheStorageJFDB.php on line 52

You are running PHP4. Joom!Fish needs PHP 5 to run (It's not yet compatible with PHP 5.3). In your Joomla! backend: help > system info, you can check which version you're running

2: In my default language I also see the 'there are no translations available' message.

First thing to try: go to your language manager and set your second language to default and then your first language again. (So reset the default language).

If this doesn't solve the issue: Go to the language configuration in Joom!Fish (components > Joom!Fish > languages) and check if you don't have any fallback language for the default language.

Let's go to the upgrade step by step. This instructions contain information for upgrading from prior 2.0 versions (alpha, beta, beta2, interim releases). For migration from version 1.8.2 to 2.0, please read the documentation package available to Club Members or refer to our forum.

Step by step:

1. Download the Latest Stable package from www.joomfish.net (don't unzip it);
2. Go to your Joomla! Administrator panel;
3. Ensure that you are using version of Joomla! 1.5.6 or later;
4. Go to Extensions -> Installation;
5. Choose the downloaded zip file;
6. Click on Upload & Install
7. Now you need to go either with eXtplorer or FTP client and ensure that the following two files were deleted by the installation script:

- administrator/components/com_joomfish/admin.joomfish.php

- administrator/components/com_joomfish/JoomfishManager.class.php

You are done - YES, that's all. Future upgrades would be even easier.

The Joom!Fish project stores all its work and additional resources at the joomlacode.org repository system. This system provides us with a public accessible system to offer downloads, version control and some additional organizational topics. The project uses joomlacode primarily for the development and translation of the extension language files and help screens. As Joom!Fish is a completely free accessible Open Source project you can access the development trunk as well as all other free accessible resources at anytime using the Subversion system.
