[SOLVED] Gallery-related fields and language problem

I have a problem with displaying Custom Fields from the Gallery module in different languages.
My page template has a language detection and selector. The following code works perfectly when I place it in the content
Code: Select all
{if $global_page_alias == 'home'} Nederlands {elseif $global_page_alias == 'accueil'} Frans {else} Engels {/if}
I want language-dependent fields in the gallery for the titles and descriptions of images. In the following Gallery template I try to give the title per language.
Code: Select all
{foreach from=$images item=image}
{if $image->isdir}
<a class="item" href="{$image->file}" title="{$image->titlename}"><img class="img-responsive" src="{$image->thumb|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}" alt="{$image->titlename}" />
{foreach from=$fields item=field}
<h3>{if $global_page_alias == 'home'} {$image->fields.categorie_titel_nl.value}
{elseif $global_page_alias == 'accueil'} {$image->fields.categorie_titel_fr.value}
{else} {$image->fields.categorie_titel_en.value} {/if}</h3>
{/foreach}
</a>
{else}
<a class="group" href="{$image->file|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}" title="{$image->comment}" rel="prettyPhoto[{$galleryid}]"><img class="img-responsive" src="{$image->thumb|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}" alt="{$image->titlename}" /></a>
{/if}
{/foreach}
The result is a Dutch or French title, but it will be just as much time displayed if the are Custom Fields created. I now see the title 6 times since there are 6 Custom Fields.
Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

Of course it does:
Code: Select all
{foreach from=$fields item=field}
<h3>{if $global_page_alias == 'home'} {$image->fields.categorie_titel_nl.value}
{elseif $global_page_alias == 'accueil'} {$image->fields.categorie_titel_fr.value}
{else} {$image->fields.categorie_titel_en.value} {/if}</h3>
{/foreach}
Note you're looping through the $fields thing (don't know what it is exactly but probably contains information about the custom fields) but you're not using it actually.
Consider not using that foreach loop but just 'call' the fields separately (as you know which fields you have created):
Something like:
Code: Select all
{foreach from=$images item=image}
{if $image->isdir}
<a class="item" href="{$image->file}" title="{$image->titlename}"><img class="img-responsive" src="{$image->thumb|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}" alt="{$image->titlename}" />
{if $global_page_alias == 'home'}
{$imgTitle = $image->fields.categorie_titel_nl.value}
{*$imgDescription = $image->fields.DESCRIPTION_nl.value*}{* <-- use your specific fieldname *}
{* ...etc ... *}
{elseif $global_page_alias == 'accueil'}
{$imgTitle = $image->fields.categorie_titel_fr.value}
{*$imgDescription = $image->fields.DESCRIPTION_fr.value*}{* <-- use your specific fieldname *}
{* ...etc ... *}
{else}
{$imgTitle = $image->fields.categorie_titel_en.value}
{*$imgDescription = $image->fields.DESCRIPTION_en.value*}{* <-- use your specific fieldname *}
{* ...etc ... *}
{/if}
<h3>{$imgTitle}</h3>
<h4>{$imgDescription}</h4>
</a>
{else}
<a class="group" href="{$image->file|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}" title="{$image->comment}" rel="prettyPhoto[{$galleryid}]"><img class="img-responsive" src="{$image->thumb|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}" alt="{$image->titlename}" /></a>
{/if}
{/foreach}

Yes, this is exactly what I need. This works great.
Something little. This comment-out has a small typo at the beginning; (* ...etc ... *}
Thank you very much for your quick response.

Partly it works with the above, but a problem occurs when gallery items been shown.
When choosing the {$imgTitle} (Title in the appropriate language) the URL changed from web address.com/nl/home.html into; webaddress.com/gallery/ gallerytilte/subgallerytitle/40.html
The used string $global_page_alias does not work anymore this way.
Is there a method to keep the URL: webaddress.com/nl/home.html ?
Or should I realize the solution to this problem in a different way?
With
i get a unique body id. Also when choosing a gallery item. How can I do something with that?

Not sure if it will be easy to fix.
First I'd try to add an extra parameter to urls from within the Gallery template:
Code: Select all
{if $image->isdir}
<a class="item" href="{$image->file}" title="{$image->titlename}"><img class="img-responsive" src="{$image->thumb|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}?ref={$global_page_alias}" alt="{$image->titlename}" />
Then in the top of your (Gallery) template set:
Code: Select all
{if isset($smarty.get.ref)}{$global_page_alias=$smarty.get.ref}{/if}
Maybe it should be in another place (top of page template) and used with 'scope=global'.
Well, you should then think well of how you want urls to look like, and perhaps do some magic with smarty replace to generate pretty language specific module urls and use .htaccess to translate to a url parameter again.
I guess /nl/ makes more sense than /home/ to specify a language.

Thanx! but it don't work.
I add the extra parameter in the Gallery template.
Code: Select all
{if isset($smarty.get.ref)}{$global_page_alias=$smarty.get.ref 'scope=global'}{/if}
This in the page template en/or gallery template get no result.
In base there is one 'home'page per language and that's the Gallery for this website. I thought to do all the multi-language in the Gallery, not knowing of the URL change.
