Multi-Lingual Product Descriptions

Recommended Posts

It seems trivial to add a such needed feature - put some special tags in product descriptions, maybe:

{lang:us}
bla bla in English
{/lang}
{lang:fr}
le bla bla, la bla bla in French
{/lang}

 

and only display the stuff if the current visitor's language matches one of the tags - or if there are no tags in the description?

 

This IS a much needed functionality!

I think having some kind of proprietary syntax to be used within fields like that for translations is actually more complicated than dedicated fields, both from an end user and system perspective, but here's a preview of something we've been trialling for a future release (screenshot attached).

+1 here for this - I think that this should be top priority.

I have to always write my categories in English and Portuguese, but I cannot write in Spanish because that would make the categories name too long and confusing.

But I refuse to do that for downloadable products, because that would give me too many work for get something good setup.

 

Thanks

Hi

 

WHMCS is supporting Multi-Lingual Product Descriptions using eval

 

in Product Descriptions add for example:

{$LANG.description_01}

 

in language files add:

 

$_LANG['description_01'] = "MY Product No 1 Descriptions";

 

to make this work you need to edit the template showing this Description

 

for example find:

{$product.description}

 

change to

{eval var=$product.description}

 

Resource:

http://www.smarty.net/docs/en/language.function.eval.tpl

 

You can use that tell the new feature come out.

Yes this is really a good idea if you only have a few products, but if have a little more it's not a particularly good idea, as this will give you too much work, and this will only contribute to you do not Update WHMCS, this you can see here http://blog.whmcs.com/?t=72051 that are still made ​​patches for the 4 series, this is only because people have had to make so many corrections that they will be unable to manageable to make an update of WHMCS.
