Translation to German language

[wak_2000]

Hello,

first of all: Thank you for this awesome library component   . It's for more then 3 years that I'm using it extensivly for my personal book collection which today has +/-2700 items.

Since I'm austrian, so nativly speeking german, I thought it would be a good idea to translate the component into this language according the advice on the page (http://alexandriabooklibrary.org/en/how-to/19-how-to-translate-abook-to-your-language.html).

I did all the translation stuff in the ini-files and the zipping and the installation process in joomla works great, but there are no representations of the translated strings on the website, neither in admin nor in frontend view. It remains in english. I attached the zipped files just in case someone has an idea where I went wrong.
Some params of my system:

Joomla: 3.3.6
Alexandria: 3.1.0
OS: Fedora 20
Apache
PHP 5.5.20
Cache deactivated
MySQLi 5.5.40-MariaDB
Joomla-Site-Language: German (de-DE)

I also found a strange behavior of the item Books in the admin view of Alexandria. There's  a column called Cover where there should be a preview of the bookcover i guess, but there's only a tiny little blank rectangle. In the "Book Manager: Edit book" page the image is diplayed correctly. So the path is well formed there.
I think the path in the "Book Manager" main view is not correctly referenced. (see atteched PDF)

Best regards

Hi Wolfgang,
many thanks for your contribution!!! Can you send me the zip file?

I also found a strange behavior of the item Books in the admin view of Alexandria......

There is a little bug, but you can fix it yourself.
Modify the file administrator/components/com_abook/views/books/tmpl/default.php line 185

from:

Code Select Expand

<img class="img-polaroid hasTip" title="" src="<?php echo $item->image!='' ? '/' .$item->image : "/components/com_abook/assets/images/nocover.png"; ?>" border="0" style="max-height:80px;min-width:24px;" alt="" />

Your translation package works fine, but there is a little bug so the language is not displayed. To fix it you have to rename some files:
language/en-GB/en-GB.com_abook.ini to language/en-GB/en-GB.com_abook.ini.old
administrator/language/en-GB/en-GB.com_abook.ini to administrator/language/en-GB/en-GB.com_abook.ini.old
administrator/language/en-GB/en-GB.com_abook.sys.ini to administrator/language/en-GB/en-GB.com_abook.sys.ini.old

I will fix the bug in the next version
