Tip #1: Giving Usertype "Manager" rights to translate content in the Administrator/Backend

The official ACL system (/includes/gacl.class.php) doesn't give the Mamagers rights to the Components menu.

You need to go to this file and change the ACL rules to allow him the access to the Component menu and then add the lines like:

Code:

$this->_mos_add_acl( 'administration', 'install', 'users', 
'manager', 'components', 'all' ); 
$this->_mos_add_acl( 'administration', 'edit', 'users', 
'manager', 'components', 'com_joomfish' ); 

e.g. after line 163

Tip #2: Translating the date/time

If you want your Joomla! site to show a translated time and/or date when you switch languages, all you need to do is add a setLocale( <SERVER_ISO> ) into your language files.

For example, in a German language file you would add the code "setLocale( LC_ALL, 'de_DE' );
