Translateng homepage of dashboard! where is it's files?

qwenty

How can I translate these items (see picture); Local Developer couldn't find them.

1. http://YOURDOMAIN/index.php?p=/dashboard/settings

2. http://YOURDOMAIN/index.php?p=/dashboard/statistics

The answer is oversight.

This plug-in is benign so you can mod it, to use. You could even send a pull request to the core. I'm sure they would appreciate it.

You can add the value to the standard definition file.

whu606

I think you can find it in

plugins\GettingStarted\default.php

and

plugins\VanillaStats

If you have Windows, I would recommend AgentRansack or Grep.

This allows you to search Vanilla for key words or phrases.

qwenty

I'm using Ubuntu. grep is available on linux, too -> toward learning search options! tnx to @whu606.

whu606 said: I think you can find it in plugins\GettingStarted\default.php

I checked the file you mentioned;

1. Why it's not written as standard format for translating=> T( ) The page: http://YOURDOMAIN/index.php?p=/dashboard/settings has 6 paragraphs and a head-title, but just 4th part is using T( ).

2. I tried for that 4 parts in this form:

<?php if (!defined('APPLICATION')) exit();
$Definition['Organize your Categories'] = 'AAAAA';
$Definition['Customize your Public Profile'] = 'BBBBB';
$Definition['Start your First Discussion'] = 'CCCCC';
$Definition['Manage your Plugins'] = 'DDDDD';
?>

Then I saved this codes into a file(gettingstarted.php) and placed in locale pack into /vanilla/locales/translationpack/. But it doesn't work?

/GettingStarted/locale/**en-Ca**/definitions.php

try one of these
/GettingStarted/locale/**translationpack**/definitions.php
or
/GettingStarted/definitions.php

also clear your cache when changing locale and definitions

Didn't work!

:'(

It doesn't need! I refresh firefox by Ctrl+F5, which refreshes the page from scratch.

qwenty 1. Why it's not written as standard format for translating=> T( ) The page: http://YOURDOMAIN/index.php?p=/dashboard/settings has 6 paragraphs and a head-title, but just 4th part is using T( ).

Bump!

peregrine

refresh the server cache by deleting all the .ini files here.

/vanilla/cache

if its not already in the local documetation on the wiki and it works for you, maybe you could append it to the wiki documentation, how you solved it. (and please don't ask where the wiki is?, because if you do ... it will drive me to the edge.)

And I will stand by that edge with peregrine... holding him back, because we've got some more stuff to solve! :-)

can you explain what "pull request" means please?

Great! Worked :) It was because of those damn ".ini" files. Now, I placed the translated file into /locales/translationpack; It's working.

Answer:

tnx to @x00

Solved. I added T( ) manually.

for Ex: T("<h1>Here's how to get started:</h1>") =>

$Definition['Here\'s how to get started:'] = 'TRANSLATION PHRASE';

peregrine

thx @xoo sounds like a great idea for qwenty to follow through on.... http://help.github.com/send-pull-requests/. .... assuming its not a snatch and run...

If it was a snake it would have bit you. - adding to wiki????

@whu606 @x00 , @peregrine

both problems are solved now, Thank you very much.

It's better that one of you (the stuff) reports modifications via github. If not, I'll do that soon!

qwenty

How should I translate the below code which is into: models/class.permissionmodel.php?

T('Permission.'.$JunctionTable, $JunctionTable)

$JunctionTable, $JunctionTable -> ??

$Definition['Permission.'] = '???';

What about: T('InviteErrorPermission', T('ErrorPermission'))

qwenty

T('Permission.'.$JunctionTable, $JunctionTable)

T('InviteErrorPermission', T('ErrorPermission'))

these code wrote in the standard form?

$JunctionTable - probably no need since it refers to database table

All the other T('something') - you do the same way you've been doing it.

$Definition['Permission.'] = 'permission-in-the-language-you-are-translating'; $Definition[InviteErrorPermission'] = 'InviteErrorPermission-in-the-language-you-are-translating'; $Definition['ErrorPermission'] = 'ErrorPermission-in-the-language-you-are-translating';

did you try it and it didn't work

So, why "$JunctionTable" comes between T( ) ? Is this the correct form: T('Permission.').$JunctionTable, $JunctionTable

$Definition[InviteErrorPermission'] = 'InviteErrorPermission-in-the-language-you-are-translating'; $Definition['ErrorPermission'] = 'ErrorPermission-in-the-language-you-are-translating';

They are nested; doesn't it matter? => T('InviteErrorPermission', T('ErrorPermission')) ??

did you try it and it didn't work

Indeed, No! because of "It seems not possible to find all codes into installed Vanilla to check them!" I'm just translating result of grep command and output of locale-developer plugin! I don't know where any code will be appeared!?

I suspect that means you!

I didn't get your intention!

peregrine

You could test them by echoing them and see if they get picked up correctly.

throw it somewhere in one of your pages or create a page in the custompage plugin.

$JunctionTable = "blah";

echo T('Permission.'.$JunctionTable, $JunctionTable);

// I believe what I said above will work - but I am not testing them, just suggesting them. T('InviteErrorPermission', T('ErrorPermission'))

use the custompage plugin and throw the line in there and see if it works the way you want.

I didn't get your intention!

I suspect that means you report modifications to github if you want to improve things, because no one is likely to do it for you. a tit-for-tat so to speak

qwenty

peregrine said: You could test them by echoing them and see if they get picked up correctly. throw it somewhere in one of your pages or create a page in the custompage plugin.

I created a php file containing the below code and placed it into: /vanilla/plugins/CustomPages/pages

<?php
echo T('Powered by Vanilla');
?>

Nothing happened! I'm not familiar with php. Is the above code correct?

Ok, Sure. I'll do.

Now, I have another odd problem: Add /vanilla/applications/dashboard/design/admin.css to the "design" folder of your current theme. then go to the dashboard. you'll see that images(icons) are (e.g.) disappeared. Why?

peregrine

I never played with Custompages till yesterday.

Suggestion: Become familiar with php :) .

This is what I did and it works for me.

/conf/locale.php

    <?php if (!defined('APPLICATION')) exit();


    $Definition['Powered by Vanilla']='Test';

/vanilla/plugins/CustomPages/pages/default.php

<?php if (!defined('APPLICATION')) exit(); ?>

<h1>This is the default page in the "Custom Pages" plugin.</h1>
<p>You can find this page on your filesystem at:</p>
<code><?php echo PATH_PLUGINS . DS . 'CustomPages' . DS . 'pages' . DS . 'default.php'; ?></code>

<p>You can copy this file, rename it, and put any content you like in it. You
will be able to access your page by using it's filename in the url. For example,
if you copied this file and renamed it "shoes.php", you could access it at:
<?php echo Url('/plugin/page/shoes', TRUE); ?></p>

//added this <?php echo T('Powered by Vanilla'); ?>

//rest of file

test shows up instead of Powered by Vanilla

Now, I have another odd problem: Add /vanilla/applications/dashboard/design/admin.css to the "design" folder of your current theme. then go to the dashboard. you'll see that images(icons) are (e.g.) disappeared. Why? >

check you cache, look in firebug to see what css files where loaded, see if images are located where it wants them to be.

BTW - What is the language you are translating to?
