Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: base system Category: feature requests Priority: normal Assigned to: Jose A Reyero Reported by: Jose A Reyero Updated by: Steven Status: patch Not all variables contain text and not all of them should be possible to change randomly. This whole approach to internationalisation seems a bit backwards to me: there will always be tables with text that you haven't translated. Shouldn't we be doing this at the string level? That's the only thing that should be changed, no?

This adds support for language-dependent variables, and does nothing when i18n.module is disabled. The idea is to add a language prefix to the variable name, depending on current language, thus allowing to easily translate some variables to different languages. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ January 24, 2005 - 07:13 : chx So simple, so useful. For example theme settings can be an i18n variable, thus your name, mission etc can be international without any more code. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ January 24, 2005 - 20:46 : chx Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/i18n_language_variables.patch (975 bytes) Following moshe's advice from http://drupal.org/node/16069 here is another, more readable version. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ January 24, 2005 - 20:54 : chx Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/i18n_language_variables_0.patch (1.07 KB) :( Wrong file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ January 24, 2005 - 23:27 : chx Forget these and stick to jose's patches. module_invoke is not available at this point... -- View: http://drupal.org/node/16071 Edit: http://drupal.org/project/comments/add/16071
