Hi all, Relatively new to CakePHP although I have most of the basics down pat. I am creating a website using i18n and there don't seem to be many solutions out there that I can really use. I found this http://www.formation-cakephp.com/41/multilingue-18n-l10n about Internationlization. It is in French though so I use Google Translation to translate it for me.
The problem is that the site only suggests using one po file and this is not a good idea for me as: 1) There are a lot of pages that is being ported from the old website 2) The person I work with is not a programmer so I have to make it as simple as possible Thus the solution is to create multiple po files and use them to display each page which ends up being easier to maintain and update for the other person. I have gone through the coding that is suggested within the site and it works. The problem is that like previously said this only works for 1 po (default.po) being used. Through another tutorial http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/p28n-the-top-to-bottom-persistent-internationalization-tutorial on bakery.cakephp.org The last comment on the very bottom of the page suggests the following code to use if you wanted to use multiple po files. CODE app/app_controller.php : --- class AppController extends Controller { ... var $domain = 'default'; ... function beforeFilter() { ... $this->domain = 'default'; } function beforeRender(){ ... $this->set('domain', $this->domain); } } In app/controllers/xxx_controller.php : class XxxController extends AppController { function yyy($index = 0) { ... $this->set('domain', '-views-xxxs-yyy'); ... } } In app/views/xxxs/yyy.ctp : ... __d($domain, "SENTENCE_TO_TRANSLATE"); ... In app/locale/eng/LC_MESSAGES/-views-xxxs-yyy.po : ... msgid "SENTENCE_TO_TRANSLATE" msgstr "sentence translated" ... In app/locale/fre/LC_MESSAGES/-views-xxxs-yyy.po : ... msgid "SENTENCE_TO_TRANSLATE" msgstr "phrase traduite" ... I got this to work but the problem is that it only loads the default layout's po file and when I try to put it in the default pages_controller or any other controller it does not work. I get it to work on individual controllers if I put the $this->set('domain', '- views-xxxs-yyy'); bit of each individual controller in the beforeFilter(). But when I do this the default layout's translations does not work and reverts to the original text. I'm been trying to fix this for the last 2 days and since i18n help online is so limited it's really hard for me to try to sort the problem. Any suggestions on how to get this to work? Thanks in advance. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
