Site wide categories language support
How can we have site wide categories be displayed in other languages?
they are added in admin panel so it seems like you can only have one set of categories, in one language. Is that correct? or is there a way to have it in different languages?
Thanks.

Thanks.
Elgg core categories plugin works simular to tags so you can't have multilanguage capabilities withouth some custom coding. The only other categories plugin i know about is hupecategories but i don't know if it supports multilanguage and is it updated for current elgg version.
It's kind of a forgotten enhancement, there's an old ticked here,

Stevan, thanks for the link. I had issues before with hypeFramework... stuff so I don't use it.
Gillie, I see now. Just as I thought, it seems like the categories will have to be defined in language file for translation to work.
Thanks for your help.
