Multilingual Module

23 February 2012 at 12:04am Last edited: 23 February 2012 12:07am
Hi SS forum!
I have developed a module based on the Multilingual recipe. Its however quite dynamic and should be quite easy to set up and manage. So for all you wishing better (or different) multi language support then what is provided with the Translatable module, you are welcome to try this one out!
Please give me some feedback if something is totally weird. Its my first module release!
Thanks! Looking forward for all kinds of feedback !

Hey Cuba,
I find this way of translating *every* page a lot more straightforward for some clients. We cannot use it for every site, only if the translated sitetree can be a 1:1 copy of the original, but still -- very nice.
I only had to add a Dutch flag (attached it to this post), used http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/flags/ for this, but they're a bit smaller... Maybe we could write some resizing script for those?
And how hard do you think it would it be to add translation of the urlsegments as well? That would make it perfect!
Anyway, nice module!

Hi!
Thanks for the flag!
Yeah, URLSegment translations is the next step. I have a colleague who wants the same - translate URLSegment, so Im guessing it has to be done. But I dont think its as easy as I would want it to be. I think the module would need a bigger rewrite in how it handles url requests...It's a to-do for whenever i get the time...

FYI
I managed to get some work done on this module today. I have now updated the module and added mutilingual URLs aswell. For full documentation see http://ss-multilingualdemo.kreationsbyran.se/ -

Hi Cuba,
your take on multilingual is exactly what i was looking for - great! Alas: I don't seem to be able to get my Dataobjects translated. I suspect that i am missing something very basic here but, being a SS-Newbie, i just can't figure out what it is...
class NewsItem extends MultilingualDataObject {
static $db = array('Headline' => 'Varchar', 'Content' => 'HTMLText');
static $multilingual_fields = array('Headline', 'Content');function getCMSFields_forPopup() {
$fields = new FieldSet();
$fields->push(new TextField('Headline','Headline'));
$fields->push(new SimpleTinyMCEField('Content','Content',10));
return $fields;
}I expected this to give me a LangSelector in the Popup - which it does not...
Any hints to get me going in the right direction?Greetings,

Hi Mats!
I see I forgot to mention the following:
The dataobject must be implemented with tabs and in the getCMSFields-function in the following way:
function getCMSFields(){
$fields = new FieldSet(
$rootTab = new TabSet("Root",
$tabMain = new Tab('Main',
new TextField("Title","Title"),
new TextAreaField('Description', "Description"),
...
)
)
);
$this->extend('updateCMSFields', $fields);
return $fields;}
