Multilanguage for (INPUT) Modules

[alessandro]

Hi, does someone has an idea how to add on (INPUT) modules multilanguage?

Here an example:
At the end there is "Angezeigte Länge in Zeichen" that is in german, how can I put multilangue to these kind of sentences?

Thanks
Alessandro

// selected category
$selected = "CMS_VALUE[0]";

echo "<table cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"10\" border=\"0\">
<tr valign=\"top\">

<select name=\"CMS_VAR[0]\">";
if($selected!="0" && $selected!=""){

there's no way to do that yet, we'll implement language dependant strings for 4.5.0

[alessandro]

But actually when I log in to the backend how is detected the language?
All backend labels and texts how are displayed for a specific language?

this is done via i18n, but can't be used easily for modules (except if you touch these files every time)

[alessandro]

Hi timo,
could you check here and told me if was what you where saying using i18n?

I also creted in the "contenido.po" file the rights texts.

I now that if I have to upgrade contenido I have to pay attention to these file (right?:-)).

Bye
Alessandro

wrong way:

Code: Alles auswählen

echo "<table cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"10\" border=\"0\"> 
<tr> 
<td>i18n(\"Addressee name\"):</td> ";

right way:

Code: Alles auswählen

echo "<table cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"10\" border=\"0\"> 
<tr> 
<td>".i18n("Addressee name").":</td>";

[alessandro]

Hi emergence,
which is the difference? The first doesen't give errors...
Bye
