Custom Fields Translation

[nioakeim]

Hello to all!

i have a problem and i could really need you help. The problem started when i needed to translate my custom fields. I know, whmcs is not ready for that. But then i thought why couldn't i do this my self.

 

So i opened my clientareadetails.tpl and looked at the code. So here is my thought.

 

In the bottom of the template there is a foreach statement that shows the $customfield.name variable

and then prints the input boxes:

 

 {if $customfields} <br />
 <table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="frame">
   <tr>
     <td><table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0">
         {foreach key=num item=customfield from=$customfields}
         <tr>
           <td width="150" class="fieldarea">{$customfield.name}</td>
           <td>{$customfield.input} {$customfield.required}</td>
         </tr>
         {/foreach}
     </table></td>
   </tr>
 </table>
 {/if}

 

What if i could instead of this

 

 <td width="150" class="fieldarea">{$customfield.name}</td>

 

something like this:

 

 <td width="150" class="fieldarea">{{$LANG}.{$customfield.name}}</td>

 

in order for the whmcs to look in the lang file for the appropriate translation. Of course the above example does not work.

 

So is it possible to combine and create a dynamic search of the translation?

 

maybe we could construct a variable that is going to be a compination of $LANG and the {$customfield.name} so we could use it like {$customvariable}

Add the word to the lang file... and then try this, I haven't tested it, but it might work?

 

{$LANG.{$customfield.name}}

 

Yours had to many curly brackets, but try the above.

Or even:

 

{$LANG.$customfield.name}

Hi!

 

I've tryed both solutions, but it didn't help. Is it realy worked in your whms? Maybe somebody know another solutions?

In my setup I have in English.txt:

 

$_LANG['customclientfield']['DOY'] = 'IRS Office';
$_LANG['customclientfield']['VAT'] = 'VAT number';

 

Then at line 89 of clientareadetails.tpl, I replaced the code with:

 

<td width="150" class="fieldarea">{$LANG.customclientfield[$customfield.name]}</td>

 

And worked fine!
