[Archived] Download the Arabic Wordpress Theme I Translated

(This is an archived post, the download links were deleted because the theme is of no use anymore)

I noticed there was some interest for the posts I made about me working on Arabic WP, & the theme I modified, so I decided to make it a bit fancier & upload it for anyone who would need it, I even created a demo blog just for it, who knows I may like translating / modifying themes & make more :D

There's something new I learned BtW, is that if you want to change the info about the theme that shows in the administration panel, you only need to change the first lines of the theme's style sheet style.css, I thought that stuff was hidden in some PHP file, in fact it is partially: the file functions.php contains some lines, & about the style.css file, here is the information you need to fill:
/*
Theme Name: xxx
Description: xxx
Version: x.x
Author: xx xx
Author URI: xxx.xx
*/

Quick Review: Choose the Best Classified Script For Your Needs

It was tough to pick a good PHP classified script for a new project. I used Google; browsed some forums; read reviews on script directories; checked classified software developers' websites (features, demos, forums, etc) & finally could make a list with a few good scripts from which I had to choose the One! 1. Some tips on how to search & choose I guess Google is often the 1st spot to start from, looking for reviews, comparisons, testimonials etc, then there are webmaster forums, the most known & with biggest database & community is obviously Forums.DigitalPoint.com , start by making a search then you could ask questions in existing threads or open your own. Once you find some scripts you can start investigate them further on Google & on forums. Make sure you are getting recent information. Checkout the features in the scripts websites too, tryout admin / user demos & visit their support forums if there are any. One source I didn't find very u

Now that you made your theme translatable , let's do the necessary to translate it. For that you will have to use a translation software, in this guide we'll use POEdit , so go ahead and download then install it. We will use POEdit to create a PO (Portable Object) file which will contain all the translatable words & phrases and optionally their translation for a specific language. If you add a translation to the PO file, you can setup POEdit to create a MO (Machine Object) file, which is the machine-readable file (the one we need to upload to the server with the theme). Note: PO files have .po extension & MO files have .mo as extension. In this guide we will create the MO file in one go with the PO file for a specific language: Launch POEdit & before anything else make sure it will automatically save a MO file every time we make or modify & save a PO file: Go to File > Preferences... , in the Preferences box choose the Editor tab, under B

Making it Translatable - Internationalize / Localize WP Themes Guide -Part 2

As I said there's not only one method to internationalize a software but Wordpress uses the GetText method & it's the one we should use for the theme. So let's start the internationalization then next attack the localization Note: It is highly recommended to choose / make an English theme & internationalize it, much easier than to work with a non-English theme. Internationalization needs an edition of the PHP files of the theme, those found in the theme's directory. index.php, archive.php, 404.php, single.php are just examples & all themes don't have the same number of files. You also may want to make a theme from scratch & make it internationalized. First you'll have to open each of the files in a basic text editor like Notepade , or a software like Crimson Editor , which is a notepad with tags highlights and many other useful features. NVU or Dreamweaver also would be fine. Now that you opened one of the files, start looking
