I18n for Catalog

Pavel Drobushevich
Hi all,

I have next problem. I see examples and tables (ProductCategoryContent,
ProductContent) for I18n of some category or product, but I didn't find
any similar methods to I18n catalogs.
Could you help me?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Pavel,

I don't think I quite get your question. can you please explain.
I am interested in i18n myself a lot and what I see in

{OFBIZ_HOME}/specialpurpose/ecommerce/data/DemoProductCategoriesI18nData.xml
{OFBIZ_HOME}/specialpurpose/ecommerce/data/DemoProductI18nData.xml

makes good sense to me. I take that and extend the XML for my initial
catalogue data. If you need another language, just add the elements. You
will need to be somehow firm with the CMS concepts.
And you will need your own naming conventions for the ID references.

Are these comments somehow going the direction you want? Please share more
details on your concrete issue. What do you want to achieve?

Regards


Carsten

Hi Carsten,

Thanks,
but I saw this files. But DemoProductCategoriesI18nData show how I18n of
ProductCategory: update ProductCategoryContent table, which has FK to
ProductCategory entity.
DemoProductI18nData show how I18n of Product entity: update ProductContent
table, which has FK to Product entity.

But I need I18n of ProdCatalog entity. I thought what OfBiz has also similar
way for ProdCatalog.
I'm understand what it's not difficult to create table ProdCatalogContent,
but at first I want to find standard way.

Best Regards,

Hi Pavel,

I agree with you, and BTW I just found the very same issue for
ProductFeature and a possible extension of ProductFeature.name etc. to cope
with i18n.

I was thinking to then go an model the ProductFeatureContent entity myself
and just do it similar to what I find in

{OFBIZ_HOME}/applications/product/entity/entitymodel.xml

However, there would not only be the entity model to change but also all the
widgets in you ecommerce application (at least).
My feeling is that while on the respective admin screens I/we could live
with english naming conventions, the customers are not necessarily up to
speed with other languages and would possibly need to be able to narrow
product features down in their own language (so they finally narrow all
choices down and get to the sellable product and do not end up with the
virtual product screen and get stuck).

For now I got simply afraid of the potential customisation effort and as the
site will launch with a single language first and others only extended as we
roll-up more markets, I have not started to work in that direction yet.

Let me know your experiences. But having a i18n catalog selector on the
ecommerce homepage does not sound like it's worth huge efforts either?

Regards


Carsten
