Are you using a phpFox version earlier than 4.6.0? Please refer to instruction for this article here. |
Third party apps and language packs are not part of the phpFox script and are provided and maintained by the developers that list them. phpFox is not responsible for any issues that third-party apps could cause to your website. It is always a good idea to fully backup your site before installing anything new and to look through any reviews or research the apps and/or developers providing them before making a decision to purchase or install them. |
This tutorial will show you how to purchase, install and manage third-party Language Packs for your website. If you would like to create and install a language package for your phpFox site, please see Adding a New Language Package
