Hi Dan, thx a lot, the resource bundle approach worked just fine for me.
I created a folder structure inside the webapp resource folder following that pattern org.apache.isis.viewer.wicket.ui.components.actions. Inside there I could override the properties via an equivalent ActionParametersFormPanel.properties file. Regarding the jira ticket, I would be more than happy to contribute to the project by completing it. But first of all I have to get familiar with the projects standards and the contributors guide ;-) Cheers, Martin -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Dan Haywood [mailto:d...@haywood-associates.co.uk] Gesendet: Samstag, 14.

Most of the i18n does indeed come from the .po files, however certain bits of the UI are "hard-coded", which is to say they rely upon Wicket's internationalization, namely resource bundles. This includes ActionParameterFormPanel.properties. There is actually a JIRA ticket [1] to complete the work of using our .po files everywhere, and I don't think it should be too much work. We do have it scheduled for this next release 1.11.0. > I am trying to override the label descriptions of form actions. > Referencing those via their message id inside a .po file didn't work either. > > It should work using the regular resource bundle approach; this is just "vanilla" Wicket. Do report back as to whether if works or not for you, one way or another. As for using the .po files, just a reminder that in prototype mode these default to "write" mode, so to use one needs to switch them to "read" mode (on the Prototyping menu), In production mode the default is "read" mode. HTH Dan Thx in advance and best regards, > Martin > [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ISIS-1093
