[Plugin: qTranslate] Translating custom taxonomy names

I’m having the same problem, ?could you find a solution to solve it?

Regards!

Check this out, it worked great for me.

add_action( 'init', 'register_custom_artist' );

function register_custom_artist() {

    $labels = array(
        'name' => _x( 'Artists', 'artist' ),
        'singular_name' => _x( 'Artist', 'artist' ),
        'add_new' => _x( 'Add New', 'artist' ),
        'add_new_item' => _x( 'Add New Artist', 'artist' ),
        'edit_item' => _x( 'Edit Artist', 'artist' ),
        'new_item' => _x( 'New Artist', 'artist' ),
        'view_item' => _x( 'View Artist', 'artist' ),
        'search_items' => _x( 'Search Artists', 'artist' ),
        'not_found' => _x( 'No artists found', 'artist' ),
        'not_found_in_trash' => _x( 'No artists found in Trash', 'artist' ),
        'parent_item_colon' => _x( 'Parent Artist:', 'artist' ),
        'menu_name' => _x( 'Artists', 'artist' ),
    );

    $args = array(
        'labels' => $labels,
        'hierarchical' => false,
        'description' => 'Artists',
        'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'author', 'thumbnail', 'excerpt', 'comments'),
        'taxonomies' => array( 'category', 'post_tag', 'page-category' ),
        'public' => true,
        'show_ui' => true,
        'show_in_menu' => true,
        'menu_position' => 5,
        'menu_icon' => 'route/to/icon.jpg',
        'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
        'publicly_queryable' => true,
        'exclude_from_search' => false,
        'has_archive' => true,
        'query_var' => true,
        'can_export' => true,
        'rewrite' => true,
        'capability_type' => 'post'
    );

    register_post_type( 'artist', $args );

}

I think this is what exactly you were looking for. Add it to your theme’s function.php file and voilà!

add_action('your_custom_taxonomy_add_form', 'qtrans_modifyTermFormFor');
add_action('your_custom_taxonomy_edit_form', 'qtrans_modifyTermFormFor');

That works perfectly! Thanks wgarcia!

Good. I’m glad it also worked for you : )

Hi, I’ve the same problem than Brian. I’ve tried to add

add_action(‘your_custom_taxonomy_add_form’, ‘qtrans_modifyTermFormFor’);
add_action(‘your_custom_taxonomy_edit_form’, ‘qtrans_modifyTermFormFor’);

to my functions.php file in the theme directory and I’ve added

[:en]Translating[:es]Traducción

on the Portfolio Categories names, but I still don’t have the categories translated. Instead, [:en]Translating[:es]Traducción appears as category on front end.

could you please give me some instructions on how to make this work?

Thanks a lot
Paolo

I had the same problem,
just add the code below to your functions.php

add_filter('the_category', 'multilanguage_category');

if(!function_exists('multilanguage_category')):
	function multilanguage_category($category_name){
		return __($category_name);
	}
endif;

You use the filter which applied at file wp-admin/includes/template.php lines 48 & 196

The above code, it’s about to translate the custom categories name in admin, if you want in your theme, or a plugin to translate you simple use the functions __(), _e()

Hi wpthm,

Would this work for the portfolio categories?

thanks!

I don’t know,I haven’t use the portfolio plugin, in the admin I believe yes, Try it, and if you have a problem tell us more specifically.

Hello,

I’ve tried to add the above code to the functions.php file and I’ve used the format [:en]Translating[:es]Traducción in the portfolio categories, but they still show up as [:en]Translating[:es]Traducción in the front end.

I actually found this code to add to functions.php which adds a field to the posts (note: not portfolio, which is what I need) categories for the translated version

require_once ( ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/plugin.php’ );
$lookforqt = ‘qtranslate/qtranslate.php’;
$category_description = category_description();
if ( ! empty( $category_description ) ) {

if (is_plugin_active( $lookforqt )) {

_e( ‘<div class=”category-archive-meta-multilingual”>’ . $category_description, ‘qtranslate’ . ‘</div>’ );
} else {

echo apply_filters( ‘category_archive_meta’, ‘<div class=”category-archive-meta”>’ . $category_description . ‘</div>’ );
}
}

It works perfectly. Would it be easier to modify this code to have also the portfolio categories translated?

Thanks a lot
Paolo

any help .. please

Just add this code in theme function.php file to to automatically detect all the taxonomies.

function qtranslate_edit_taxonomies(){
   $args=array(
      'public' => true ,
      '_builtin' => false
   );
   $output = 'object'; // or objects
   $operator = 'and'; // 'and' or 'or'

   $taxonomies = get_taxonomies($args,$output,$operator); 

   if  ($taxonomies) {
     foreach ($taxonomies  as $taxonomy ) {
         add_action( $taxonomy->name.'_add_form', 'qtrans_modifyTermFormFor');
         add_action( $taxonomy->name.'_edit_form', 'qtrans_modifyTermFormFor');        

     }
   }

}
add_action('admin_init', 'qtranslate_edit_taxonomies');
