Copy translations/en.json to translations/no.json.
Modify the translations/no.json to Norwegian translations.
Add your translation to translations/translations.js.

And don’t forget to send us a pull request so others can use it as well! :) (Do do this, you need to make a fork of the repository: https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/)

@MichMich Did all of the above yesterday, the only result I got was that the wind direction notations only showed as small squares. The rest stayed in English. We use a special character for east (Ø), so maybe that had something to do with it?
I’ll doublecheck everything when I get off from work, might just be I made a mistake somewhere :)

I quickly tried using the Ø to see if it would give any problems, but it just works fines. (Tested on both the Raspberry and my Mac).

@MichMich Thanks, got it working fine now. Made a pull request also, might do Swedish and Danish as well as that’s pretty similar to Norwegian : )

Does Norwegian have some special characters? What I want to solve is that the special characters of Germany are displayed at the “compliments”.

I tried to change some occurrences of “UTF-8” to “ISO-8859” but this didn’t work.

I would appreciate it if someone give me an answer in the near future, because the MM is the birthday present to my girlfriend.

@Wilco89 Hey Wilco89, that works like a charm !! I’m very happy that the first solution proposal works at the firt attempt ! Thank you very much !

After years of programming & translations I learned a lot. In my own language (frisian) we do use some of these a lot, and in the other language (Dutch) we don’t use them often.

But for every starter it can Be a huge problem to solve this very Tiny issue.

I Hope you did finish your translation and Made a PR.
