[SOLVED] Problem with showing the mod_cbactivity with the correct translated strings was created by MadPax

Hello guys,

I am having some difficulty with the mod_cbactivity module.

In spite of having the site in Portuguese instead of the defaultlanguage all of the module is displying in english and I can't find the place these strings get translated.

These are CBTxt implementations and I found out that the following code sits in lines 38 of components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbactivity/templates/default/jquery.php

Code:

$js					.=	"$.extend( jQuery.timeago.settings.strings, {"
									.		( $prefixAgo ? "prefixAgo: '" . addslashes( $prefixAgo ) . "'," : null )
									.		( $prefixFromNow ? "prefixFromNow: '" . addslashes( $prefixFromNow ) . "'," : null )
									.		"suffixAgo: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( 'ago' ) ) . "',"
									.		"suffixFromNow: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( 'from now' ) ) . "',"
									.		"seconds: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( 'less than a minute' ) ) . "',"
									.		"minute: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( 'about a minute' ) ) . "',"
									.		"minutes: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( '%d minutes' ) ) . "',"
									.		"hour: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( 'about an hour' ) ) . "',"
									.		"hours: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( 'about %d hours' ) ) . "',"
									.		"day: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( 'a day' ) ) . "',"
									.		"days: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( '%d days' ) ) . "',"
									.		"month: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( 'about a month' ) ) . "',"
									.		"months: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( '%d months' ) ) . "',"
									.		"year: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( 'about a year' ) ) . "',"
									.		"years: '" . addslashes( CBTxt::T( '%d years' ) ) . "'"
									.	"});"
									.	"$( '.activityTimeago' ).timeago({ allowFuture: true });";
			}

			$plugins[]				=	'timeago';
		}

I just don't know where these strings are defined for translation.

Also for the other strings that show in the module like '... has joined...' or '... has an updated profile...' I can't even find where they're defined let alone where they get translated.

I checked all the language files in /components/com_comprofiler/plugin/language but this is something that eludes me.

Any help please?

Please see the below topic regarding CB Activity translation.

www.joomlapolis.com/forum/153-professional-member-support/203511-cb-activity-translate?start=12#204075

The strings don't exist anywhere. You need to add them to your cbteamplugins language file of your CB language plugin.

You can also find another translation example below.

which file should I update then?

On an upgrade of CB wouldn't this file be overwritten? How should I avoid this, by using a includable file?

Cheers and thanks for the rapid response.

To your cbteamplugins language file of your CB language plugin. You can find CB language files below.

components/com_comprofiler/plugin/language/

On an upgrade of CB wouldn't this file be overwritten?

Yes.

How should I avoid this, by using a includable file?

Avoid editing the default_language files. If your site is in English then download the English language plugin below and change it as necessary or edit whatever non-English language plugin you maybe using.

Please see the below for further language usage information.

Thanks I will do that and eventually create customized files which I will then include in the main language file. That way I will only have to update the new files on upgrade with the include clause.

On another note I have created a couple of custom fields for which I have given the title and description in the format _UE_FIELD_NAME_HERE.

Where should I pu these? In the same place?

Cheers,
Peter

Yes, but not in cbteamplugins language file. Define usage always goes in the main language file (e.g. language.php). You should see several other defines in the file to help get you started on formatting its usage.
