Multi Language in ChronoFormsV4

Hello,
I congratulate you for working with this release.
I just installed ChronoFormsV4 but I do not know how to make translations into three languages.

I added "Multi Language" in "On Load" after "show html" with:

"Language Tag" = en-GB
"Translation strings":
Contact contact =
...=...

How to add language es-ES fr-FR?
I tried to put another action "Multi-Language" in "On Load" but one language works.

And how to translate the "Show Message Thanks"?

Thank you all very much ...
(Sorry for my English, I'm French)

Hi Fabroux,

Glad you like it🙂

The multi language should usually be placed at the end of the event, on load or on submit, based on what you need to translate, it will translate the output of the action its placed into only.

for more than 1 language you need more than 1 multi lang action, each action for 1 language, the language strings will be used if the current website active language matches the tag.

Max

Hi, Max and thank you

Here are some screenshots of my configuration.

Just last added language in the "on laod" works

That may be because of "Joom!fish?

Thank you

Hi fabroux and Max,

There is a bug in the current release which means that repeated actions are not handled correctly. Only the last is used.

The fix requires two changes.

In com_chronoforms/libraries/chronoform.php find the function _processAction() around line 128 and replace

$this->main_event_actions[$action] = $action_details;

with

$this->main_event_actions[] = $action_details;

and in com_chronoforms/chronoforms.html.php around line 23 replace

				foreach($form->main_event_actions as $action => $actiondata){
  $viewFile = JPATH_SITE.DS."administrator".DS."components".DS."com_chronoforms".DS.'form_actions'.DS.$action.DS.'cfaction_'.$action.'.ctp';

with

foreach($form->main_event_actions as $actiondata){
  $viewFile = JPATH_SITE.DS."administrator".DS."components".DS."com_chronoforms".DS.'form_actions'.DS.$actiondata->type.DS.'cfaction_'.$actiondata->type.'.ctp';

and, in the same file, around line 28 replace

require_once($viewFile);

with

require($viewFile);

Note: this seems to work OK but it may have side-effects that I haven't found.

Hi GreyHead,

Before:
Only the final language of "on load" worked

With the modifications:
Only the first language of "on load" works

The solution must be near.
Thanks

Hi fabroux,

Hmmm . . at least something is different.

By all means email or PM me the site URL and a SuperAdmin login and I'll take a quick look. If that's possible if might be easier to diagnose than on my test site.

Hi,

Thanks Bob for the fix!🙂

It needs one more fix in the chronoforms.html.php file, instead of "require_once" please use "require" or contact me to send you the new file.

Max

Hi Max,

Excellent, I was just about to go and hunt for this :-)

I've updated my earlier post to include the extra change (and also the CFv4 bugs sticky post in this forum).

Sorry for my English:) I'm from Ukraine. I have a problem: It is Joomla 1.5.23 installed ChronoForms v4 latest version, does not work multi language, when language is switched through joom! fish, in the form of language is not changed. Tell me what may be, may have learned to create multi language, where to find the problem? thank you!

Hi ivachok,

It's hard to tell from your image but the Input name 'navza' should not be translated. The Label and other text should be translated but I can't see that from here.

I don't currently have Joomfish installed to test :-(
