what is your ISO country code in admin? SE?

 

If yes I didn't saw the translation for modules/paypal/translations.xml

 

to add it, open the file and after:

<contents>

 

add:

<country iso_code="SE">
 <yes>Yes</yes>
 <no>No</no>
 <payment_choice>MY TRANSLATION FOR: Pay with your card or your PayPal account</payment_choice>
 <leader>Leader in</leader>

As far as I have found you can't. In PS versions 1.4x PS makes use of the PS translation system. In PS 1.5x that was changed and now an xml file is used that only allows support of a default language. In my case, I removed the xml file and I use just an image of the PayPal logo that requires no translation.

 

I do not know why PS made this change.

Confirmed that for multi-lingual countries translations.xml file is no use as it considers that each country has only one language it uses iso-code, sorry for Switzerland... but if anyone has a smart solution ....

found this comment on svn about subject

 

 

"Ok I understand, but we cannot.

This module comes from a partnership (with PayPal).

So they want their own "commercial" content, that's why the module is not "easily" translatable.

Thank you,

Regards."

 

Paypal has then defined that only SINGLE language countries exists and it is a commercial model ;-) you are very kind to allow this model partnership with paypal, thanx to find a quick solution :-)

Hi guys,

 

I have a big problem. I also want to change the PayPal text in the payment checkout. I know I have to make changes in modules/paypal/translations.xml. The problem is (I'm using the newest PayPal version 3.4.5 and PS version 1.3.5.1) that the files in the module are all set to 644 and not writeable!? I also can not chmod them with Filezilla. Anybody knows how to solve this?

Hello BnB, I see it as a hosting issue. I am not sure your exact specific case but I explain what happened in my case.

 

Probable Prestashop downloaded/extracted the module when you installed it.

The files are under the user that runs php (I suspect it's a mod_php of apache and the user can be nobody, apache ...). Because of this you are not the owner of them and can't change them. Have you tried to edit the files with cpanel filemanager? it should work as a workaround

 

Today, most hosts are running php as a fcgi module and under the user that holds the hosting account so this kind of problems are avoided.

thx Emily_D for this

Sarah, if you use fr,it and de for languages you should try this fix. The solution is in the second post but you should read the first one to understand the problem.

 

it seems it does not solve as : "Cette solution ne fonctionne que si le code iso du pays et de la langue sont identiques. Pour le cas de l'anglais, code iso 'en', la traduction par défaut de paypal sera sélectionnée (traduction en anglais, cela tombe bien...)."

translated : Only works if country Iso code and lang are the same.

 

In Switzerland we have 4 official languages : iso codes are ch-fr, ch-de, ch-it and ch-ro

Sarah, if you use Prestashop "language packs", you'll get iso code fr for french,de for german, and it for italian. So that should work for those languages.

 

 

If you have a specific language packs such as ch-fr, ch-de, ch-it and ch-ro, you can use this function :

 

function getCountryByLang($lang_iso_code)
{
 switch($lang_iso_code)
 {
  case "ch-fr": // suisse romand
 return "FR";
 case "ch-de": // suisse allemand
 case "ch-ro": // romanche
 return "DE";
 case "ch-it": // suisse italien
 return "IT";
 default:
 return strtoupper($lang_iso_code);
 }
}

 

 

Since there's no paypal translation for romanche, I use the german one.

 

 

So to recap, you need to have :

 

 

// modules/paypal/paypal.php, l 703)
public function getTranslations()
{
 ...
 // replace
 if (($this->iso_code != 'default') && ($country_iso == $this->iso_code))

 // by
$correct_iso_code = $this->getCountryByLang($this->context->language->iso_code);
 if (($correct_iso_code != 'default') && ($country_iso ==  $correct_iso_code))
 ...
}

// add this function
public function getCountryByLang($lang_iso_code)
{
 switch($lang_iso_code)
 {
 case "ch-fr": // suisse romand
   return "FR";
 case "ch-de": // suisse allemand
 case "ch-ro": // romanche
   return "DE";  
 case "ch-it": // suisse italien
   return "IT";
 default:
   return strtoupper($lang_iso_code);
 }
}

Hi guys,

 

I started a thread concerning the translation of the Paypal Express Checkout page and received a great solution. However I am not able to view my own thread any more?!

 

http://www.prestasho...anguage/unread/

 

Anyways, here's the solution for everyone who ran into the same issue. Thanks so much Xavier, you're amazing!! Your solution works perfectly :)

 

 

 

xavdpub has just posted a reply to a topic that you have subscribed to titled "Paypal Express Checkout in wrong language".

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi

Forget about translations

On prestashop 1.5.2 and paypal 3.4.4 (not tested for other versions)

 

in module/paypal/expresscheckout/process.php :

add the " localecode" function like this in this order (!) , around line 145

// Set payment detail (reference)

$this->_setPaymentDetails($fields);

$fields['SOLUTIONTYPE'] = 'Sole';

$fields['LOCALECODE']='US';

$fields['LANDINGPAGE'] = 'Login';

 

And in module/paypal/paypal.php

change the country to US

 

DEFAULT_COUNTRY_ISO = 'US';

 

let us know if this flies , it did for me

Best

Xavier
