 Posted: Fri Mar 11, 2011 1:46 pm Post subject: Correct setting of languages with Smarty |
 |
|
I have set the following for languages:
1.
| Code: | | $smarty->lang_dir = ROOT_DIR . "languages"; |
within file called smarty.inc.php
2. I have created folder called languages in root
in my root file I have config file with defined name file LANG_DIR
| Code: |
define('DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('LANG_DIR', ROOT_DIR . 'languages' . DS);
|
3. In controller index PHP file I like to detect languages for german, english etc.:
<?
$language = $_GET['lang'];
if($language == 'en-GB')
{
include(ROOT_PATH .'languages/en-GB/index.php');
} elseif ($language == 'de-DE'){
include(ROOT_PATH .'languages/de-DE/index.php');
}
$smarty->assign("title", $lang['Main_title']);
$smarty->dispaly("index.tpl");
?>
include(ROOT_PATH .'languages/'. $language .'/index.php');
$smarty->assign( 'language', $language ); // $language taken from GET ID |

Hi topliset,
It is good solution which I used successfully as well. Recently I have developed something different such translation blocks.
In smarty template it looks like:
{t}String to translate{/t}
And to allow use this I had to register 't' block:
$smarty->registerPlugin( 'block', 't', translate' );
function translate( $params, $content )
{
$language_array = Language::getLanguageArray(); // This will return array with strings for current language
return $language_array[ $content ];
}
I hope it will help.
Best,
Marek |

| Do you separate text content for each language with included files within each index.php file as it is used the same index.tpl for each language? |

Hi,
I am using another way to get language content:
Language is stored into Session after user has selected a language or default lang is set.
After this, I use config files to import all text :
| Code: | | $smarty->config_load('languages/'.$_SESSION['language'].'/'.$_SESSION['language'].'.conf', 'module_search'); |
With this, I can use the text in correct language in php by using | Code: | | $smarty->get_config_vars('text'); |
or
| Code: | | {$smarty.config.text} |
in template files.
Without caching, the correct language config file is used automatically, with caching, I use $_SESSION[language] as cache_id.
Regards, Chris |
