qTranslate admin language

None of the wordpress admin locale switcher plugins work, when you are using qTranslate and qTranslate does not have a separate option for admin locale, therefore to specify any other locale then the default content locale you’ll have to add the code below to qtranslate/qtranslate_hooks.php:

/**
 * This filter hook allows wordpress admin locale to be
 * different then your default qTranslate content language
 */
function qtrans_mofileFilter($mofile) {
	// replace "en_US" with your preferred admin language
	if (is_admin() || is_login())
		return WP_LANG_DIR."/en_US.mo";
	return $mofile;
}
add_filter('load_textdomain_mofile', 'qtrans_mofileFilter', 0);

function is_login() {
	return in_array($GLOBALS['pagenow'], array('wp-login.php', 'wp-register.php'));
}

tested with WordPress version 3.2.1 and qTranslate version 2.5.24

var exportExtension = "jpg"; // extension jpg or png
var exportPath = "/Users/kasparsj/Work/someproject/images"; // set to your project path

app.preferences.RulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var html = '';
var exportOptions = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb();
exportOptions.quality = 80; // set quality
if (exportExtension == "jpg") {
  exportOptions.format = SaveDocumentType.JPEG;
}
else {
  exportOptions.format = SaveDocumentType.PNG;
}

// do it!
processLayerSet(doc);

// loops trough all layers and processes visible Art Layers
