Internationalization and Customization of Edit Mode Plug-Ins (optional)

Top  Previous  Next

EPiServer allows the internationalization of the names and descriptions of GUI plug-ins via the EPiServer language files. The tab names used for each language can be configured by editing the relevant language file contained within the lang\languageXX file, where XX is the two letter language code for that language.

The XPath location that the edit mode GUI plug-in looks for an internationalized name is /networkedplanet/classificationeditor/plugin. If you add this structure to one of the language files, it will use the values contained with sub-elements named name and description for the tab display. For example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes" ?>

<languages>

  <language name="English" id="EN">

    <networkedplanet>

      <classificationeditor>

          <plugin>

            <displayname>Classification</displayname>

            <description>Classify the page against the knowledge model</description>

          </plugin>

        </classificationeditor>

    </networkedplanet>

    ...

</languages>

This shows customized display name and descriptions for the English language (file lang\languageEN.xml).
