Limited Localization EN > DE

Hello Forum! I work with Concrete5 in English, but create sites for Swiss customers. They are small sites, and need limited localization - mainly validation for the form block (For example, if not filled out completely: "Complete required fields" appears. Translation: "Bitte sämtliche Felder mit * ausfüllen") I was able to do limited localization last Summer, when working with 5.2, but with 5.6 things have changed in the Form block. Now all validation is in concrete/core/controllers/blocks/form.php . See this forum entry: http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/form-tableless-layout/forums/where-can-i-change-the-success-and-error-text/ from JordanLev Unfortunately this all gets complicated when you also want to use the very excellent "form tableless addon". I freely admit that I am almost at the limit of my skills although I am not afraid to try things. I assume I have to do a "full Monty" localization. Does anyone know where I can find the .po files for this? Or does anyone have any other suggestions? By the way @Remo - loved the first book - it is full of post-it markers. New book ordered from Packt. Thanks for all your great work! And thanks in advance to the forum

As is so typical of me, just as I begin to go crazy about a problem, the solution presents itself. In this case, the repository of bmatzner at GitHub: https://github.com/bmatzner/concrete5-de I did the "partial" localization - added the DE_de to the language folder, and edited config/site.php Whew!

OK the euphoria wore off - I noticed both front-end AND back-end (Dashboard - "Verwaltung") are translated. Better than nothing but not my intention. Anybody have an idea how to separate these two? Thanks!

Thanks! Glad you liked my book. Can you try to type "languages" in the intelligent search box on top and change the default language there. I haven't used it in a long time since we use a custom add-on we've built on our own as we needed quite a bit more functionality than the core offers. Something that quickly happens if most customers are Swiss, a small country with four languages...

Thank you! I did that, and at least now I can change the language as needed - in development > English, live > German. It would be really nice to have the two separate - for instance, how does C5 decide, when you have 2-3 languages on a website, what the dashboard language is? I will have to look at the language add-ons more closely, although for my case they are overkill. (Or just get used to working in German!) Thanks again ArleneS

You can specify that the user can pick a language during login in the same screen where you've changed the default language. There are other approaches in the "internationalization add-on" which you might want to try. I'm not an expert with these add-ons as we basically rewrote the whole thing for our own purpose, however, I remember that there's an option you can enable in which case concrete5 will try to determine the language based on the language of your browser.

I'm not sure but a thought crossed my mind, can you try to add a new user? I think you should be able to select the lanuage there!

Yes - I have now set the site up so language can be chosen at log-in. I could also add a user and choose the language. What I would like to achieve is that the language of the Dashboard is separated from the front-end - so no matter what Dashboard language is chosen, the front-end stays in German. I haven't tested it fully, but each time I change the language at log-in to English, the responses on the contact form change to English. Change at log-in to German, responses change to German. I don't feel like buying the internationalization block each time I create a site - I believe it is enough to develop in English, then go live in German. Should be okay. It is simply a convenience thing.

The add-on is free! http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/internationalization/

Yes I have that one installed - it allows you to choose between languages, but not mix. Looked further into this - the add-on I would need is this one: http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/translations-manager/ $30 / site Have to think about if it's worth it. Anyway, discussing it with you Remo was certainly worth it - really helped me get my head straight about the whole thing. Thank you.
