then by clickin in multilanguage settings I put this parameteres:



Uploaded with ImageShack.us

but for some reasons it does not translate anything... this is the link of the form:
http://www.agriturismolamaddalena.it/it/prenotazioni.html

maybe because there's joomfish installed on my website??

thanks in advance

Hi Escomputers,

Please drag the Multi-language action up so that it is before the Show HTML action.

I moved action up before "show html", but nothing happens yet...why bob?
anyway thanks for your help


no way to make it working!!

Hi Escomputers,

Please try and set the Language Tag to en-GB instead of en-US.
(Verify the Joomla installed languages in the Language Manager).

This solved the issue for me (in Joomla 1.7.3).

Hello 😲

I am new to chronoforms.
I don't understand what i need to do to install the multilanguage option.
I looked in the form manager but I can't see any options for this..
I am working on Joomla 1.7 and I have downloaded the last realease chronoforms.

The current form I created is in English but I need one in Spanish and German.
Please see link here: (for bottom page)

Please can you help me? can you send me instructions?

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Hi meandher,

Here's the quick version.

In your form elements use distinctive* placeholders where you want translated text e.g. #NAME#, #EMAIL#, #SEND#.

Drag a Multi-Language action into the ON Load event of your form and move it up to the top.

Add the language code for this action e.g. de-DE

Add the placeholder and the translations, one per line

#NAME#=Nahme
#EMAIL#=E-mail
#SEND#=Senden

Repeat for the other languages

Repeat in the On Submit event if you want translations in Emails or Thank you messages, etc.

* You can use any text as a placeholder but there is a risk of 'bad' translations as ChronoForms uses a failry simple search and replace. So 'name' could get replaced inside 'renamed'. Using distictive placeholders also makes it much clearer which text is set up for translation.

Hi,

I'm having some problems with translations cause i have label text with links but the = symbol of the href doesn't let me to translate.

any idea?

Ok, i just have to do it word by word and "translate" the link

Hi crotondo,

You can break it down into chunks like this #SOME_TEXT#<a href='. . .'>#SOME_MORE_TEXT#</a>

Or you can try using my Show HTML [GH] action which (I think) has the '=' bug fixed so that it ignores any = after the first one.
