Hello, dear developers!

Can't find localization faq or howto topic. Let me ask here.

Correct the mistakes:
Error uploading file "mibew-i18n-ru-2.0.0-20150414.zip": Invalid file type.

Please tell how to install language pack correct

You have to unzip (untar) the package and put files into "mibew/locales/<locale code>" directory.

I've already done it but still the language is English everywhere. In messenger settings page and in Localize section the is only "en" option to choose. Any ideas how to enable uploaded language files?

After you upload the package new language should be available at "<base URL>/operator/locale" page. If it does not then you did something wrong.

Thank you. To much difficult this process was for me without documentation. I suggest you to include this section in documentation wiki.

Good luck
