My solution for multilanguage products

[PixelZombie]

Hey Phoca Cart Users :-)

I just want to share my solution to multilanguage products in case you need that too.

I used this Plugin:
https://www.joomlack.fr/en/download-joo ... nguages-ck

and then I just added the language tags in the product description.

Code: Select all

{langck=de-DE}

german text to show

{/langck}

{langck=en-GB}

english text to show

{/langck}

this also works in product attribute titles, specification key values (also specification group titles) and so on.

Code: Select all

{langck=de-DE}Größe{/langck}{langck=en-GB}Size{/langck}
{langck=de-DE}Spezifikation{/langck}{langck=en-GB}Specification{/langck}

It gets a bit messy to look at in the backend, but It's working just fine :-)

Cheers

You're welcome :-)

I just noticed that the plugin I recommended, does not work in admin views. The simplest solution would be to comment the following lines in

plugins/system/multilanguagesck/multilanguagesck.php

Code: Select all

if ($app->isAdmin()) {
            return false;
        }

But since the plugin is GNU/GPL, I think I'll copy it and make this part configurable or even publish it as a phoca cart plugin.

Cheers

Oh Jan,
I just noticed that this plugin isn't working in E-Mails. Could you check if the content is rendered with the content/system-plugins?

Cheers

Hi, if the content plugin should be applied a part should be ready for this (e.g. description will be set so it accepts content plugin) but system plugin do not have any such rule, they just apply on the rendered code

Mhm, I don't know if it's possible but maybe prerender the mails before they are send out?

[Jan]

Not sure but maybe we can try to apply this:
https://www.phoca.cz/documents/16-jooml ... t-articles
for the email text:
administrator\components\com_phocacart\libraries\phocacart\order\status.php

cca 475 for $body and $bodyOthers

Code: Select all

$body  = JHTML::_('content.prepare', $body);
