   Dear WP people,

   define ('WPLANG', 'nl_NL'); doesn't work.

   I have installed this package (which contains Wordpress 2.3 with a Dutch theme included, it works for other people on other servers then mine):
   http://www.dolleboel.net/wp/WordPress2_3_NL.tar.gz

   I have changed the wp-config.php to:
   

   <?php
   // ** MySQL settings ** //
   define('DB_NAME', 'XXX'); // of course fake
   define('DB_USER', 'XXX'); // of course fake
   define('DB_PASSWORD', 'XXX'); // of course fake
   define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
   define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
   define('DB_COLLATE', '');
   $table_prefix  = 'wp_';
   define ('WPLANG', 'nl_NL');
   define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__).'/');
   require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-settings.php');
   ?>

   Well I started then with the installation, and guess what it was in English.

   I have checked the nl_NL.mo file:
   http://www.dolleboel.net/wp/wp-content/languages/nl_NL.mo

   But for some reason my worpress won't listen to WPLANG, everything is working fine, but I have to set up a Wordpress in the Dutch languas and to change all text in the php would be a hell of a job.

   De site is running at --> http://www.dolleboel.net/wp/

   Can somebody help me? Reply in this topic or contact me on tijmen @ dolleboel.net . Any help is appreciated!

   Information of the server it is working on:
   

   PHP built On: Linux blinkserver.blinkserver.nl 2.6.18-4-amd64 #1 SMP Fri May 4 00:37:33 UTC 2007 x86_64
   Database Version: 4.1.10-standard

   Web Server: Apache/2.0.59 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.0.59 OpenSSL/0.9.8c mod_perl/2.0.3 Perl/v5.8.8

   After a tip I tried to put the nl_NL.mo file on two different locations.

   http://www.dolleboel.net/wp/wp-includes/languages/nl_NL.mo
   http://www.dolleboel.net/wp/wp-content/languages/nl_NL.mo

   But there is nothing changed;
   The admin area is still in English.

   The point is, I've changed for another site of mine lot's of php files. But when a new Wordpress version is coming out I've got another problem, because all my files will be overwritten and I must do it all again.

   So I hope there is a way I can fix this problem :S

   Solution:

   Find gettext.php in wp-includes. Replace this part
   

   if ($magic == ($MAGIC1 & 0xFFFFFFFF)) { // to make sure it works for 64-bit platforms
   $this->BYTEORDER = 0;
   } elseif ($magic == ($MAGIC2 & 0xFFFFFFFF)) {

   with this:

   if ($magic == $MAGIC1) {
   $this->BYTEORDER = 0;
   } elseif ($magic == $MAGIC2) {

   worked for me too, thanks egostripper
   we have version 2.2.2-1 (Ubuntu package) though and now it looks like:
   

   if ($magic == $MAGIC1 || $magic == $MAGIC3) { // to make sure it works for 64-bit platforms
     $this->BYTEORDER = 0;
   } elseif ($magic == $MAGIC2) {

   I read in the new config-sample that the MO needs to be put into wp-content/languages but for me it still works at wp-include/languages.

   Is this really changed or is that line in config-sample simply not right?

   If it is not in wp-content/languages, then WordPress will look in wp-includes/languages for the mo file.

   Can confirm that http://trac.wordpress.org/changeset/6488 (similar to egostripper and traneHead's fixes) for 2.3.2 lines 117&118 in wp-includes/gettext.php, using a .mo file, on a BlueHost server, works.

   Other resource:
   http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3780

    I've got the same problem. WordPress version 2.6. None of the above helps. I use SiteGround Hosting -> Fantastico. PHP version 5.2.5, MySQL version 4.1, Architecture i686. Tried with German, Russian and Ukrainian Localizations. Still see English on the Screen. Any more Ideas on how to change those lines? Or is it something else?

    Thanks in advance.
