Clone/Create a New Language

For WHM version 11.24

This feature allows you to clone an existing cPanel language, creating a copy on your server. This is useful if you want to create your own language file, as it will allow you to edit a language file without destroying the original.

Please see our documentation about cPanel language files for more information.

To clone a language:

  1. Select the language to clone from the Language pull-down menu.
  2. Select the file to clone from the File/Theme pull-down menu.
    • Root, Addons, & All Themes clones all of the language’s files.
    • Root Language File clones the file that supplies wording for your cPanel interface when a needed term in the interface is missing from the primary language files.
    • x (available for English only) clones the deprecated x theme’s language file.
    • x3 clones the x3 language file.
    • x3mail clones the x3mail language file.
    • If you have a custom cPanel theme, you can select it here to clone its language file.
      • Language files for custom themes reside on your server in the directory /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/$themename/lang/ (where $themename is replaced by the name of the custom theme).
  3. Click Go.
    • WHM will display a new page.
  4. In the Target (new) Language box, enter a unique filename for the new language file.
  5. In the Target (new) Charset box, select the character set in which you would like to save the language.
  6. Click Copy/Clone. WHM will create the new language file.

You may now download the language file for editing.
