    British English

    I run a British forum, and my users are mostly going to be British, there doesn't appear to be one for us brits which is a bit strange when you think about it as vBulletin was a from the UK , anyone got one they can share? With respects to the American English on there right now.

    Unless you're going to be running a EDL forum I don't think your users will care. However if there was an option to switch to UK English then I would, It's the same situation with XenForo.

          Out of curiosity, what phrases would you want changed to be more British?

          If I post CSS and you don't know where it goes, throw it into the additional.css template.

              There are some differences in spelling between US English and British English, such as color - colour.
              My guess is that it is mostly things like that.

              Don't send me requests by PM to email you the Swedish language file that I have done. My translation is only available here at vbulletin.com to licensed users.
              If you want updates on when a new version of the Swedish language packs (forum & suite) are available, subscribe to this discussion.
              Don't PM me for support on how to install language files etc. please post in the appropriate forum, that will most likely give you help quicker.

                None in the front end, the main thing would be to have the language named British English to give it the name it deserves!

                  You may name it British English if you want. Go to admincp > languages & phrases > language manager > edit English > change the title from English to British English.
