[answered] about cms_set_language in combination with news

Currently I am testing the new cms_lang tags. They seem to work pretty well, nice addition.

I have set the default front-end language to en_US later I set the language to nl_NL. {$nls->key()} is printing the right values.

Code: Select all

{cms_lang_info assign='nls'}
key: {$nls->key()} <br>
fullname: {$nls->fullname()} <br>

<!-- cms_set_language -->
{cms_set_language lang="nl_NL"}
<!-- /cms_set_language -->

{cms_lang_info assign='nls'}
key: {$nls->key()} <br>
fullname: {$nls->fullname()} <br>

<b>Give me the nl_NL news version</b>
{news action=fesubmit}

Code: Select all

key: en_US
fullname: English
key: nl_NL
fullname: Dutch 

By using {cms_set_language lang="nl_NL"} at last I suppose I am in 'Dutch' mode but when I call the news tag I get the 'en_US' translations.

How can I get the 'Dutch' translation by using the news tag. Since (optional) lang="..." is deprecated.

Changing the front-end language is obvious but for mulilang sites there can be multiple front-end languages.

The NLS/lang stuff will not support changing the language (and therefore the NLS codes and everything else) multiple times in the same page.

One call per request.

Ok thank you for the feedback. Setting the default frontend language to en_US and switching once works great.

Code: Select all

<!-- cms_set_language -->
{cms_set_language lang="nl_NL"}
<!-- /cms_set_language -->

{cms_lang_info assign='nls'}
key: {$nls->key()} <br>
fullname: {$nls->fullname()} <br>

<b>Give me the nl_NL news version</b>
{news action=fesubmit}
