Localization?

Open inputsh opened this issue 10 years ago • 14 comments

Are you planning on implementing a way to translate this website to various languages?

I'm open to having it translatable, if someone wants to work on it. Hence why I rewrote it in PHP.

If by working on it you mean translating it, yup, I'm interested.

You can be sure that it will be translated at least in one or two languages.

inputsh avatar May 31 '15 22:05 inputsh

I mean, adding a translation backend. ;)

we could just use gettext?

Is there any decision yet?

People are free to submit pull requests

There was a discussion about this in the elementary website issues: https://github.com/elementary/website/issues/37

They found an elegant solution: https://github.com/elementary/website/pull/288

You may ask them for help reimplementing that for your project.

@davidak I am one of them, and it's a bit more complex than I care to implement myself. ;) Like I said, I am open to pull requests for i18n support.

snwh avatar Sep 30 '16 14:09 snwh

@snwh If you're still interested about i18n support, i can work on this :)

No progress here? With shift to Jekyll the new site only really needs the rewritten pages/posts in the other languages.

Totally forgot about this. It would have been easier for me to do this when it used to use PHP instead of Jekyll. Translating Jekyll based websites hosted on Github isn't that easy, as Github doesn't provide the gem that could be used for translations

@bilelmoussaoui it's not github pages or hosted on github, only the source code is.

snwh avatar Jan 09 '19 18:01 snwh

Aha! alright, will take a look as soon as I can, can you assign the issue to me to keep track of it?
