[DG: User / Using Sakai] Sakai translation

[Beth Kirschner]

Hello,

This is an unfortunate side-effect of the way information is stored in  
Sakai. Page titles (e.g. Welcome, About) are considered dynamic data  
that is stored in the database, not in properties files. You can  
modify these page titles by updating the SQL scripts prior to  
installation, but another approach would be to modify them using the  
admin tools:

1) Log in as admin
2) Select "Worksite Setup"
3) Select the checkbox next to "Gateway" and select the "Revisar" link  
at top of page
4) Select "Ordenar páginas"
5) For each page title, select the edit icon and type in the  
translated page title
6) Be sure to select "Save" when finished

New worksites that you create will not have this problem, only  
worksites that are created at installation. "Mi Sitio" (My Workspace)  
worksites will not have this problem in the Sakai 2.6.x release,  
though the problem is still outstanding in Sakai 2.5.x (a patch to  
resolve this is pending).
