Block Type Names not translated in 5.5.1

Permalink
Hi all,

We made Japanese localized message file, but Block Type Names are still displayed in English at Dashboard Block Type Page. If I run "Refresh core database tables and blocks", then they are displayed in Japanese. Is this a bug??

Regards,
Takuro

Not really a bug - just not properly thought through...

(Never got a response)

Basically, the issue is that the strings are placed into the database and no strings coming from the database get translated. If you refresh the db, then they will get translated on the way in, but still not on the way out. Basically, you can only have the dashboard fully translated in one language at the moment - which kinda sucks :(

My solution posted above I reckon would solve the issue, but it would be good to get some opinion from Andrew or Frz before I start trying to code it in...

Dear Jon,
Thanks to reply.

I think so. some part of dashboard strings are displayed in one language. this is a barrier when try to make multilingual site.

Problem solved. Here is code:

InstallController::on_start()
if (isset($_POST['locale']) && $_POST['locale']) {
   define("ACTIVE_LOCALE", $_POST['locale']);
   $this->set('locale', $_POST['locale']);
}

changed to
if (isset($_POST['locale']) && $_POST['locale']) {
   define("ACTIVE_LOCALE", $_POST['locale']);
   $this->set('locale', $_POST['locale']);
} else if (file_exists(DIR_CONFIG_SITE . '/site_install.php')) {
   require_once(DIR_CONFIG_SITE . '/site_install.php');
   if(defined('LOCALE')){
      define("ACTIVE_LOCALE", LOCALE);
   }
}
