[MohamedAl-Almany]

I am setting up my store on prestashop 1.6 but i have an problem with the name.

 

I have 2 languages - english & arabic.

 

The Problem is that i want to have the name in the arabic language/version with arabic and in the english/version with english.

Depending on where, you could force prestashop to show different names according to language.

But the shop name is referenced at many places and sometimes stored as a constant within php.

 

The shop name is stored in the ps_configuration table with key PS_SHOP_NAME. Usually it is fetched by the following possible commands within php:

 

Configuration::getMultiple  (if multiple config variables are fetched)

or

Configuration::get('PS_SHOP_NAME')

 

It would be possible to write an own function for example within ./classes/Tools.php like GetShopNameByLang and there check the language context and return the appropriate value. However with a quick search I found 78 references to PS_SHOP_NAME. So it could take time to find all places where you had to change to code.
