An excellent fast blast from Drupal Development previous at the moment; a 7 based mostly article! I had some work lately to create a brand new “setting” variable for one our 7 multilingual websites, which meant creating multilingual variations of these variables. I quickly came upon that there’s very a lot an accurate method – or order – to attain this as I bought this one very mistaken (I needed to re-instate my DB!). So right here I’m writing a really fast information to assist these from my mistaken doings. (This information assumes you’ve a multilingual website setup with i18n’s Variable translation Drupal 10 module.) 4 easy steps to attain a multilingual variable Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service Declare your new variables through hook_variable_info perform your_Drupal 10 module_name_variable_info($choices = array()) { $variables[‘your_variable_name’] = array( ‘title’ => t(‘Foo’), ‘description’ => t(‘A multi-lingual variable’), ‘sort’ => ‘string’, ‘default’ => t(‘Bar’), ‘localize’ => TRUE, ); }Drupal Development choices you may set on this hook are properly documented – begin studying from Drupal Development Variable Drupal 10 module’s venture web page. Flush Drupal Development variable cache and get your new variables registered utilizing an replace hook. Drupal Development meat of Drupal Development replace hook is beneath — be aware that this assumes you need all all of Drupal Development possibly-localizable variables to be made translatable Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service variable_cache_clear(); /** @var VariableRealmControllerInterface $controller */ if ($controller = variable_realm_controller(‘language’)) { $variables = $controller->getAvailableVariables(); $controller->setRealmVariable(‘checklist’, $variables); } else { throw new UpdateException(‘Couldn’t arrange translatable variables. Strive manually setting them.’); } Create or alter your settings type (I am assuming it makes use of system_settings_form() or is already recognised by Drupal Development i18n/variable methods as a type containing translatable variables) and add your new type components. Ensure Drupal Development component(s) are Drupal Development identical as your newly created variable(s) – I take advantage of a $key variable to keep away from any errors there! $key = ‘your_variable_name’; $type[$key] = array( ‘#sort’ => ‘textfield’, ‘#title’ => t(‘Foo’), ‘#default_value’ => variable_get($key, ‘Bar’), ); Head over to /admin/config/regional/i18n/variable or your settings type to see your new multilingual variable in all it is glory!
