Indroduction

This tutorial is part of the Developing a Model-View-Controller (MVC) Component for Joomla!1.6 tutorial. You are encouraged to read the previous parts of the tutorial before reading this.

Joomla!1.6 manages languages for components in four different situations:

  • displaying a component in the public site
  • managing a component in the backend
  • managing menus in the backend
  • installing a component (new in 1.6)

Joomla!1.6 uses two different location folder for languages:

  • one in administrator/language or language
  • one in the component folder (administrator/component/*component*/language or component/*component*/language)

It depends how the component is installed.

Packaging the component

Content of your code directory

Create a compressed file of this directory or directly download the archive and install it using the extension manager of Joomla!1.6. You can add a menu item of this component using the menu manager in the backend.
