The following FAQs give an overview of possible translations in pimcore and it's different translation modules.
How do I get pimcore in different Languages?
Pimcore is shipped with the standard language english. Further translations can be downloaded in Settings > Download System Languages by any user who has the "Translations" permission. The translations available for download are maintained by the pimcore community. Anybody can join an support the pimcore translation project by providing system translations in their own language.
How can I add special Translations in pimcore which are not covered by the System Translations?
There are several components in the pimcore backend which are configured differently for each project. These are
- object class mames
- object field mames
- object layout compontents
- document types
- predefined properties
- custom views
- document editables
These all these elements (except document editables) can be translated in Extras > Translations Admin. All installed system languages are availabe for translation.
Document editables are translated through a special view helper. Please see Translation of Document Editables for more information.
Strings which are subject to special translations, but have not been translated yet, are displayed with a "+" in front and after the string, if pimcore is in DEBUG mode.
What about plugin translations?
If you are a plugin developer, you can add translations to your plugins and provide them with your plugin as you wish. To see how plugins can hook into translations, please see the Plugin Developers's Guide.
Just like the pimcore system translations, official pimcore plugins can be translated by the community in the pimcore translation project.
