Custom Field Translation with Falang

Hi Nicolas,

I translated my site Dutch / English and almost everthing is ok.
Translating the custom fields works, but my translated Hikashop Custom Fields do not show in the front end.
Must be a small thing I think, but I can't find the solution.

Thanks,
Roy

Hi Roy,

Here is the documentation of Hikashop custom fields :

Label : The label of the field. You can translate it via joomfish. Note that core custom fields should be translated via the translation file of hikashop so that everyone can benefit of the translations. In the translation file, you will find them by searching for the english label which will be uppercase and spaces replaced with _. For example, you will find "Middle name" with the key MIDDLE_NAME in the translation file. You can edit the translation files of HikaShop in the configuration page of HikaShop, under the tab languages.

Hope this will help you.

Hi Mohamed,

I do not have a problem translating the custom fields,
My problem is that the translation of (only) custom fields do
not show in the frontend, while the rest of the translations of
joomla & hikashop is working ok!

Please tell me how to translate custom fields value ?
custom field type - text. I use it as additional info.
I found how to translate custom fields titles, but i need to translate values.

Hi there,

You can simply use the Hikashop language files (in System>Configuration>Languages). Anything found in this file will be translated according to the selected language.

Yes, I know.
I ment:
when you created custom field, for example TYPE OF A VEHICLE.

you enter : car or van or truck....
you have an option to translate "TYPE OF A VEHICLE"
but not a value :car or van or truck.



and one more question, when i set my filter, i select custom field filter, select "TYPE OF A VEHICLE", but i cant enter text VALUE- it just delete it, just numbers.. what i do wrong?

Actually that's something we implemented in the last version of Hikashop.
So make sure you have the 2.2.0 because it should work for your values.

About the filter, could you please post a screenshot of your custom field configuration as well as a screenshot of you filter configuration?

unfortunately i changed alot of .php files to fit my view9 and i need to start store fast - so i cant update. In future when il have time Il try to modify minimum .php.

can you tell me : if i modify .php through display/view - will it be changed after update?

Here is Series filter. When i put filter values and press SAVE - It delete all values.





Here is chanel filter. when i enter 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 value - It shows 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 4.... I want just 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Thanks ALOT!!

Hi,
Sorry to dig this topic but we also have problem with custom field translation...

We have created a wysiwig custom field and we can only translate the title but not the value...
We expected that when we translated a product with falang, we could translate "product description" and "custom field" value at the same place but unfortunately no...

We also created a custom field "simple list" but even if we put the translated values in a language file it doesn't work...

I hope you could help us.

Hi,

The translation of custom fields is not yet implemented in HikaShop, we have it on our TODO list but we can't give a date.

Ok, thank you for the answer.
But about values of a simple list ? I read something about a translation file where I could put directly the translation (I don't find anymore the topic)... please can you explain me how to do exactly ?

For the list, you just have to put the string of the value column in capital, and then add a translation override in the language file.
The language file is in Configuration > Language.

Hi,
i would like to know if the custom field value could be traslated in different Language for each product.

For example:
- Product: Motor A - Custom Field: Traslation - Custom Field Value: Ullimited (for English Language)
- Product: Motor B - Custom Field: Traslation - Custom Field Value: Limited to 300mm (for English Language)


- Product: Motore A - Custom Field: Traslazione - Custom Field Value: Ullimited (for Italian Language)
- Product: Motore B - Custom Field: Traslazione - Custom Field Value: Limitato a passi di 300mm (for Italian Language)

From the last update of the post, is this feature implemented???

Best Regards

Valerio
