[xwiki-users] Application translations with the properties located in XWiki pages (Bulleting Board example)

Hello,
I try to translate an application in many languages but it doesn't work.
Let's take the Bulleting board application to explain my problem.
The bulleting Board application already has a default translation page in
english (BBCode.Translations). I declared it in Administration > Programming
Document Bundles and it works fine. I would like to
have a second language
for my Bulleting Board. I try two ways to do that but,
unfortunatly, neither
one or the other works...
First method : I put the BBCode.Translations language to english (en) and I
translate the document in french (fr) thanks to the right translation panel.
So, I have my BBCode.Translations page available both in english and in
french. Then, when I go back to my Bulleting Board, only the key messages
are displayed and not their values (bb_welcomebb instead of "Welcome to your
Bulletin Board!")...
Second method : I created a new BBCode.TranslationFr page which I added in
the document bundles Programming field (with a separated comma to the
original BBCode.Translations). But I have the same result...
I think there is something I don't understand... But what ? !!
I feel like a newbie 'cause i don't stop to mail my problems (it's the third
in one week !)... Though, I read the documentation, the FAQ and the Nabble
Forum and I did some tests... Hope I don't bother you too much ! :)

Strange, I just tried with XWiki Enterprise 2.2.4 and it worked. Here's
what I did:
* went to Administration/General
* enabled multi lingual
* set the Languages field to "en,fr" (without the quotes)
* kept en as the Default Language
* saved
* opened BBCode.Translations in wiki edit mode
* clicked on fr in the Document Translations panel ("Translate this
document in:")
* changed some of the translations (e.g. the value associated to
bb_addnewcategory translation key) and saved
* went to the Bulletin Board home page and the French translation was in
place
Now, I can see that on the Bulletin Board home page only the en language
is listed in view mode in the top right corner of the page. This is both
correct, because the Bulletin Board home page wasn't translated in a
different language, and wrong because the user is not able to switch the
UI language.
Unfortunately the language of the UI is currently mixed with the
document language. You can force the French language by appending
language=fr to the query string of the URL. For instance
/xwiki/bin/view/BulletinBoard/?language=fr
should display the Bulletin Board home page in French.
Hope this helps,
Marius

Hi Marius,
Thank your very much. I've found where my problem was !
Strange, I just tried with XWiki Enterprise 2.2.4 and
it worked. Here's
what I did:
* went to Administration/General
* enabled multi lingual
* set the Languages field to "en,fr" (without the quotes)
* kept en as the Default Language
* saved
* opened BBCode.Translations in wiki edit mode

document in:")
* changed some of the translations (e.g. the value associated to
bb_addnewcategory translation key) and saved
* went to the Bulletin Board home page and the French translation was in
place
I already did what you say except one thing : instead of editing
BBCode.Translations in wiki mode, I did it in WYSIWYG mode... And, thank to
you, I realize that, in WYSIWYG mode, some codes are added in the page. Look
this quote :
|| bb_bb=Bulletin Board
|| bb_welcomebb=Welcome to your Bulletin Board!
My problem was this automatical "bb_" piece of code...
But, mea culpa, because on the
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/InternationalizingApplica…
Internationalizing Applications page it's written that we have to edit in
wiki mode... Perhaps, it should be bigger ! :)
Anyway, thank you ! Now, it works !
Now, I can see that on the Bulletin Board home page
only the en language
is listed in view mode in the top right corner of the page. This is both
correct, because the Bulletin Board home page wasn't translated in a
different language, and wrong because the user is not able to switch the
UI language.

/xwiki/bin/view/BulletinBoard/?language=fr
should display the Bulletin Board home page in French.
I understand that but
it's too bad... Is there a way (a workaround ?) to
detect if there are many translations in the translation document and not in
the page itself ? Or, if there isn't, a way to force the wiki to have the
list of all languages available (in the top right corner) even if the
current page is translated in only one language ?
