Header.php code by language selection

[Sebastyne]

Hello everyone,

I have a problem which I imagine to be an easy fix for people who actually know what they're doing, unlike me. :p I have a bilingual site, which is built as a combination of Joomla, SMF and Coppermine. They are all designed to look alike, and they use the same menu, which I have included in the header.php in Coppermine. Now, what I would like to do, is make the header.php pull the menu code depending on the language the user has selected. I only need a static piece of html pulled into it's place based on the language selection.

Can anyone tell me how I could do this?

To see what I mean, I have the gallery set up here: http://www.thebdoll.com/gallery and the header looks like this on it's own: http://www.thebdoll.com/gallery/include/header.php

$USER['lang'] contains the language of the current visitor as far as Coppermine is concerned. Use a simple if/then construct for custom menu entries, like

Code Select Expand

<?php
if ($USER['lang'] == 'german') {
    echo 'Mein Deutsches Menü hier';
} elseif ($USER['lang'] == 'french') {
    echo 'mon menu en Francais';
} else {
    echo 'My default menu here';
}
?>

Fantastic, thank you! *cheers*

That's exactly what I was after, but I'm doing something wrong. It seems to skip the code to the last option, is there a special formatting for the language names that I should take into consideration?

[Joachim Müller]

You need to take into account the scope: within a function, you need to make $USER global. That's of course not specific to coppermine, but a general PHP requirement.
Post the code you use in your custom menu file.
Try

Code Select Expand

<?php
print_r($USER);
?>from within that file.

I don't think I put it into the right place - I don't know php much at all, as you can tell. I mostly just edit the html parts in between and sometimes remove bits (very carefully) but that's about it.

Here's what I have so far, without the actual code - in practicality I would only need "If Finnish, show this heading, if something else, show this" now there's one extra step because I wanted to play it safe and get it working before removing stuff.

Code Select Expand

<?php


print_r($USER);


if ($USER['lang'] == 'finnish') {
    echo '<!----CUSTOM FINNISH TEMPLATE HEADING STARTS HERE----->




  <!----CUSTOM FINNISH TEMPLATE HEADING ENDS HERE----->';
} elseif ($USER['lang'] == 'english_gb') {
    echo '<!----CUSTOM BRITTISH ENGLISH TEMPLATE HEADING STARTS HERE----->





  <!----CUSTOM BRITTISH ENGLISH TEMPLATE HEADING ENDS HERE----->';
} else {
    echo '<!----CUSTOM INTERNATIONAL TEMPLATE HEADING STARTS HERE----->





  <!----CUSTOM NTERNATIONAL TEMPLATE HEADING ENDS HERE----->';
}
?>

Is that supposed to be the code of http://www.thebdoll.com/gallery/include/header.php ?
Obviously not. Post the URL of the code you just refered to where we can see it in action and post how you actually attempt to include it into your gallery.

No that's it... Well, the stripped down version of it. The code was too long (and pretty confusing) to paste on the forum, so I just took the html out.

It's in action on http://www.thebdoll.com/gallery/ and the one language that should make a difference is Finnish.

I'll have to cut it into parts:

Your previous postings do not answer my question

post how you actually attempt to include it into your gallery.

Please specify how you include the file http://www.thebdoll.com/gallery/include/header.php, i.e. in what line of coppermine's core code you perform the include. If you're using the custom header include feature in coppermine's config, please attach a screenshot of the corresponding section to your next posting.

I'll have to cut it into parts

Hehe, no: in the future, just rename foobar.php to foobar.php.txt or put the file you want to post into a zip archive. Then attach it to your posting - that's fine. The supporters here are used to that.

Anyway, your approach looks OK (although a bit complicated). Here are some explanations: the dev team is using American English as default, so English (US) is represented by english.php, while British English is represented by english_gb.php. Most browsers will default to US English, and you haven't specified a default case. That's why I suggest that you do the following:

• Delete http://www.thebdoll.com/gallery/lang/english.php
• Rename http://www.thebdoll.com/gallery/lang/english_gb.php to http://www.thebdoll.com/gallery/lang/english.php
• Go to http://www.thebdoll.com/gallery/admin.php?lang=english in your browser and set English as default language
• Edit http://www.thebdoll.com/gallery/include/header.php like this:

I removed the second English option there, as attached, I didn't think you'd go into the nitty gritty of it.  I can always tinker with it after it works as intended. (And return to the first working version if it doesn't.)

The include is the custom header include feature in Coppermine, and it fetches the heading from the correct path, as I haven't added the code anywhere else and it displays it correctly, only doesn't change languages. Anyway, here's the screenshot if I understand what you need...

[Joachim Müller]

What about the global command that I suggested to use above?

[Sebastyne]

What about the global command that I suggested to use above?

Well, as I said, I don't know php, what I have in the code is what I could gather up from the responses. I have no idea how to implement a "global command" so if it's too much trouble to write down the code as it should be, just tell me and I'll forget the whole thing or wait until I find someone who knows enough to help me out.

Such a small piece of code and it makes all the difference. I didn't see it in the earlier code you posted... Hard to keep track when you don't know much of what you're doing in the first place.

Thank you so much for your help and patience - even when I was losing mine (along with my focus)!

[Joachim Müller]

So that fixed your issue? If yes, please resolve your thread as suggested in http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,55415.msg270631.html#msg270631
