Adding fieldsets to templateDetails.xml

Closed this issue · 3 comments

I have followed the instruction on the "Getting Started", but whenever I add a new fieldset example:

fieldset name="style"

field name="theme" type="folderlist" default="madOrange" label="Select a theme" description="Select a jQueryUI theme" directory="templates/madtemplate/css/theme/" filter="" exclude="" stripext="" /
field name="TPL_MADTEMPLATE_PARAMETER_THEME_DOC" type="spacer" hr="false" /
/fieldset

The admin settings will not display the names correctly. Instead of "style" as the fieldset name, it shows "COM_TEMPLATES_Style_FIELDSET_LABEL"

(I followed the examples in the language files to set up my new options)

Have I done something wrong or is there another undocumented step to follow; or...?

Do you translate the string in template language file?

Yes, I did. I only need English for now but because the German language file already existed I did translate it for that file. (I'm still digging through the api docs to find any clues.) I should also mention that I'm only working with Joomla! 3.

If you use a language variable in templateDetails.xml lik

TPL_MADTEMPLATE_PARAMETER_THEME_DOC

you should put it in your language file under ROOT/language/en-GB/en-GB.tpl_frontend.ini

TPL_MADTEMPLATE_PARAMETER_THEME_DOC="My text here ..."
