Language Translation

We have a lot of international users requesting that Project Bubble be translated in to different languages.
We want to do this, and it's possible - however it needs your help. Eventually I want to be able to have a Language Selection drop-down in the User Details page, and then that translates the website and other elements of the user interface.
The first step though is getting those translations. So I set up a Wiki for two reasons. One so we can document how to use PB, but also so we can start translating Project Bubble in to different languages. Anyone can contribute to the Wiki.
- Please go to the Wiki, then the Languages page
- If your language is not there click on Create page and make sure you place the language with the right path: "languages/my-language".
- If your language is there please contribute to the Introduction and write your own documentation in your language.
- In the Translation section please start translating anything you see in the PB interface that you think needs to be translated (for example, Dashboard, Projects...).
If this doesn't make sense please comment and I'll try to explain.
Thank you for helping me out!!

Can we also translate the text that shows on the final invoice sent to the customer? This would be a huge win, as there's no service out there that provides this kind of func. yet...

Hiya, most of it you can translate, but there are some bits you can't translate yet, such as the "Payment due on...", and "Invoice to...". Obviously your tasks, the address, the invoice title and the project description can all be translated. It will come.
