Templates, div and Languages

[Kiyro]

Hello, I need your help.
Initially I created a theme for my prestashop, only in Italian language, adding div and phrases to the tpl files.
Now I added the multi-language and I was wondering how to dynamically change the wording in the tpl files depending on the language selected.

Thank you very much in advance.

you can change translations under localization > translations tab in your back office.

 

more information about this awesome feature you can read here: http://doc.prestashop.com/display/PS15/Understanding+Local+Settings#UnderstandingLocalSettings-Translations

How can I add new "field" for a new "static text" (which i added in template) in translation page?

[NemoPS]

It depends on where you add it.

 

for modules:

 

{l s='this is the text' mod='modulename'}

 

For pages

 

{l s='this is the text'}

 

 

This for tpl files

For php you can use $this->l('string to be translated');

Grazie!
Thank you!

If i want to change a image in a slider depending on the selected language, how could I do?

[NemoPS]

Oh, that's a lot more complex, it depends on whether the slider supports it or not, it's hard to explain in a single forum post

what module you use? default imageslider for homepage? if so, you can do it in module configuration page without changing files

[Kiyro]

I don't use a module, I use a simple javascript slider open source. Its a static slider in a index.tpl

 

<div>

<div class="">

<a href="link of a page"><img src="../img/IMG.ITA.png" class="img1-slide2" /></a>

</div>

</div>

[NemoPS]

I suggest you use language IDS then, like

 

<div>

<div class="">

<a href="link of a page"><img src="../img/IMG_{$lang_iso}.png" class="img1-slide2" /></a>

</div>

</div>
