Use ChronoForms Translations in Chronoforms PHP Code

Proximate 03 Mar, 2020

Hi community

For a Project i load a "product" from the db. The product itself has different names in different languages.
We are using Joomla Multilanguage and its all up and running (also Translations inside Chronoforms).
Because of the fact that the owner has NOT to handle translations or anything inside Chronoforms Config each product has fields for its title so a product has:
name_de; name_en; name_fr fields. actually i load the name_de field and combine it with a price field in PHP:

$packs = $this->get('read_packages');
$edited = array();

foreach($packs as $pack){
    $edited[$pack[Package][id]] = $pack[Package][name]  . ' CHF ' . $pack[Package][price] . '.-';
}

return $edited;

The $pack[Package][name] is the fieldname that should be variable...

Any idea how to build the PHP block with variable fieldnames based on the selected language?

kind regards

Nevermind i had a idea that worked.

I copied the above code for each lang and edited the fieldname.
Next i removed the placeholder for the {var:myPhpFunction} from the select list and replaced it by a language var
and in the language var i setted up the
PACK={var:myPhpFunction_de}
PACK={var:myPhpFunction_en}
...

its working like that
