Note: If you only use the
English language in your store, then you can skip this step.
There are several new language variables added in VPCart 9.00, so if you have any additional languages installed, you will need to update your database.
If you are upgrading from a version earlier than VPCart 5.00, you will find that languages are handled completely different in the latest version. Rather than being stored in the shop$language_xxxx.asp files, they are stored in the database in the languages table.
1. Download the new
language files for VPCart 9.00 from the VPCart website – http://www.vpasp.com/sales/languages900.asp
2. Unzip the downloaded file
into the “admin”
folder where you installed
VPCart 9.00.
3. Log in to your VPCart Administration and go to Advanced Settings > International
4. Click the “Language” tab.
5. Click “Add Language.”
6. Type in the filename of the language you are updating. For example, if you are updating to the Spanish language, enter the “shop$language_spanish.asp” filename.
Set Merge With Database to “Yes.”
If you have made a lot of customizations to the languages and you only want to add new entries from the language file to your database, set Update Existing to “No.”
7. Click the “Continue” button. This will add the new language terms to your languages table.
8. Click the “Reset Language” link. Select the language you just added and click the “Continue” button.
9. If you have more than one language in your site, follow the steps above for each language.
