How to insert Lang fields-entries into a custom simple html page.

ody · April 17, 2017

Hello,

we try to insert into a simple custom made page (php or html) preconfigured lang fields

as like {$LANG.orderchooseapackage}

page is saved into default WHMCS teplate

we had try to add into the head section our common css files or ... but ...

Thank you, Ody.

if this is going to be a WHMCS page, I would have thought the easiest way would be to split the page into a PHP file and it's template - so PHP creates the page and the template inserts the content... similar to the thread below...

https://forum.whmcs.com/showthread.php?127834-Terms-of-service-page&p=511398#post511398

by default, a PHP/HTML page wouldn't know the language files even exist (or probably WHMCS for that matter), so it wouldn't understand what you're referring to with {$LANG.orderchooseapackage}.

Thank you Brian for your reply,

we want to create a popup offer page with no navbar or WHMCS default style css .....

we had try also tpl solution but it wasn't work,

the theme is how to call the lang entries, but not all the rest of WHMCS.

the theme is how to call the lang entries, but not all the rest of WHMCS.

the trick will be working out the language in the client area... for example, if your site only uses English, you could easily do this in the PHP file (no template)...

<?php
define ('WHMCS', true);
include 'lang/english.php';
include 'lang/overrides/english.php';
echo $_LANG['orderchooseapackage'];

now to avoid PHP errors, you should probably wrap the includes with a IF file_exists line to check the language files exists before calling it.

it gets slightly trickier if this has to be multilingual (which I assume it does - otherwise why use the language files lol)...

one way around that, if the page calling the popup is a WHMCS file, would be to pass the current language in the URL to popup.php - e.g

http://www.domain.com/whmcs/popup.php?lang={$language}

and then in popup.php, you take that value from the URL and use it in the links to the language files...

<?php
define ('WHMCS', true);
$language = $_GET['lang'];
include 'lang/'.$language.'.php';
include 'lang/overrides/'.$language.'.php';
echo $_LANG['orderchooseapackage'];

you will need to add some input validation to that code, e.g check a language is being passed in the URL and if not (or invalid), use a default language value (English); check the language files exist before calling them etc.

off the top of my head, that's the simplest way I can think to do this. :idea:

Thank you Brian for your code,

I will try it and let you know if it works or not.

ody · April 18, 2017

Nada..

we can't call lang fields, we can insert default buttons or other common WHMCS styles boxes or .... but no any lang fields,

I don't know if it's easiest to insert those lang fields in an html page.

then I need to see the exact code your trying to use because the above code will output language files strings in the php file.

This is an exaple page in html, which opens with a mouseover

at the end we want to add a roow with an order default lang field $ button

(we can do it with a simple link but with no any tranlsation)

<a class="btn btn-success btn-lg btn-checkout" href="/cart.php?gid=1" class="label label-warning"> Symantec {$LANG.orderchooseapackage}</a>

ok, if we ignore the mouseover part as I don't know how you're doing it (css/jquery/3rdparty) and let's just assume we have a normal link on the WHMCS homepage...

<a href="popup.php?lang={$language}" target="_blank">Click here for popup</a>

and then in popup.php we have your monster table...

<?php
define ('WHMCS', true);
$language = $_GET['lang'];
include 'lang/'.$language.'.php';
include 'lang/overrides/'.$language.'.php';
?>

if the homepage language is set to English, i'm seeing this in popup.php

and if set to Spanish...

now you might need to play with the css to get the buttons right and then add in your mouseover method, but the php file can definitely access the language strings - you just need to jump into PHP to display them. :idea:

Thank you for your time and WORK!!!!

ody · April 18, 2017

Well,

Houston we have a problem,

it's not your code or our ex-test-code or pages,

we can't add any lang fields into all of our WHMCS installation,

not even in announcements, or knowledge pages,

or into whmcms custom pages or ....

we check our .httacces or firewall but all seems OK,

Edited April 18, 2017 by ody

brian! · April 18, 2017

it's not a cache issue is it?

do you mean you can't add new override entries or you can't add any language strings to the templates ??

ody · April 19, 2017

We find out where is the problem,

all styles opening but we got error and

it's into our server setup,

AH01071: Got error 'PHP message: PHP Warning: include(): https:// wrapper is disabled in the server configuration by allow_url_include=0
