There's my fork for Elgg 3.3 https://github.com/RiverVanRain/language_selector/tree/3.3

manually uploading the language files to my site.

BTW, you don't need to do this. All translated files will be available with the next Elgg release.

You can try this plugin also https://github.com/ColdTrick/translation_editor

Will you be updating Language Selector to Elgg 4? I'm already running 4.0.1. Will this mean any logged out user visiting the site will see the Gaelic version automatically or do they have change a setting?

The subject of the community I'm creating is Gaelic language and culture, so ideally I'd like minimise English on the site as much as possible.

I guessed the translated files would be added to the next release, I'm not always sure of the context of the strings I'm translating, so I like to have a live view as I'm working.

Thanks for that, I'll definitely give Translation Editor a try.

Unfortunately, this plugin will not work on the Elgg 4.

This plugin allows to select the language on the site for visitors.

For logged in users, the choice of language is already in the users' settings if you've enabled the languages in the site settings.

Also, you can set your custom language as default in the Site settings page.
