"About" summary is not translatable

Closed this issue · 7 comments

At the moment this nice new tab is a mixture of English and German (when using German as webtrees language). Maybe a first step could be to make it consistent in English only. As a second step, it would be nice to make it translatable like the narrative style of JustCarmens custom module Fancy TreeView.

let me see if this is something I can do (reminder: I have no idea on how to create a webtrees theme. I'm just hacking my way through it to create something I and my family would want to use).

... ok, but you are really good at doing it that way! Maybe expand your family by adopting some members that are speaking other languages than English ... ;-)

Never used Fancy Treeview but just checked it out and it does a similar summary to my "About" tab. I will try to reverse engineer what its doing and incorporate into my theme.

And maybe I can turn this into a separate module (and separate it from the theme) - we'll see how it goes

That is a good idea because this function is a new "tab" and it should not be mixed up with the "theme" function of "modern".

Successfully created a separate module for the about tab. Going to take me a while to rewrite - so it includes some fixes as well as language support.

This theme has been completely rewritten:
https://github.com/JesseWebDotCom/webtrees-theme-modern/releases/tag/0.0.1

The feature you were using is no longer available in this release. It will return (either in the theme itself or as a separate module) after the theme is stable and I get experience with translation based projects.
