Yesterday, I extended my experiment with multi-lingual content.

In my test application, I added field labels to my second language using additions to the .ini files for both languages where needed. I noted one outcome that I had 'thought about' earlier - What to do about checkbox widgets supported by a vocabulary list that occur in fields.ini??? Well, my multi-select widget was gone. I wasn't surprised that happened actually. But I was surprised that the other Select widgets with supporting vocabulary broke as well. Maybe I should have foreseen that as well.

In my case the three remaining entries in fields.ini are all vocabulary supported.

Code: Select all

[author_profession]
widget:type = checkbox
vocabulary = Profession
repeat=1
[author_birth_month]
widget:type = select
vocabulary = Months
[author_birth_day_of_month]
widget:type = select
vocabulary = Days


Can I still use a construct like this??? Is there a syntax for getting it into the language .ini files, or do I need something else???

thanks

You'll need to define your vocabularies with the __sql__ directive. Then use standard naming conventions to translate the tables from which the vocabulary is drawn.

Either that or define then in the delegate class (but using __sql__ works fine).

Thanks Steve

I kinda figured that was the answer(s), but its always best to check with the 'chef' when in doubt on a 'recipe'.
