Translating...
For my weblog I'm trying to translate all the default text (like "comment") into German. I have no real programming knowledge, so I'm doing this by simply exchanging the words within the skins. trial and error, and it's even fun. but i don't find a way to change the words "comment"/"comments" behind the comment counter at the end of a story. same problem with "subscriptions" in the status department. i checked both skins proto=story&name=preview and proto=membership&name=statusloggedin, but I don't have an idea what to do next. Can somebody please give me a hint? PS: Same problem with "older stories" and "newer stories".

for the comment-counter have a look here (this is really "just-in-time documentation" ;-)
for the "subscriptions"-link you can use the attribute "text", so i.e.:
<% this.subscriptionslink text="lieblinks" prefix="... deine " %>
look in the statusloggedin-skin for this macro.
the text of the links to "newer stories" and "older stories" cannot be modified.

this is notexactly true. you can change it but only to a generic text, i.e. the same for images and stories. all you have to do is to overwrite the <% param.text %> macro. check alo. it uses "<" and ">".

oops, that wasn't intended. and of course, i forgot that you can modify the skins. but keep in mind that these skins will be used within *every* list (stories, images, goodies), so to replace it with a symbol (as in alo.antville.org is probably the best way if you want to change it).

1. <% story.commentcounter prefix="String" suffix="String" no="text to appear if no threads found" one="text to appear if one thread is found" more="text to appear if more than one thread is found" %> as explained in this outdated help file
2. <% this.subscriptionslink prefix="String" suffix="String" text="text to appear instead of the word subscription" %>
3. click "link to newer entries" and "link to older entries" on the bottom of the skin page.
