[SOLVED] Having multilingual sale label for products

Quote

Post by josee225 » Mon Feb 27, 2012 1:21 am

Hi,

I have a bilingual store (English/French) I am working on, bought a template on Theme Forest, and now I would like to change the "sale" image in french:
http://cartamagicastore.com/OpenC/product/special
So I went ahead and created a .product-sale-fr class, a french image, tested it and it looks fine.

Now I just don't now how to implement it in my templates. I know I need to do something like: if English, display this, if not, display that. I just don't know how to achieve this. The exact code in the template file is this:

Code: Select all

 <?php if ($product['thumb']) { ?>
		<div class="image"><?php if ($product['special']) { ?><div class="product-sale"></div><?php } ?><a href="<?php echo $product['href']; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $product['thumb']; ?>" title="<?php echo $product['name']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $product['name']; ?>" /></a></div>
      <?php } ?>
Could anyone help me out with this ? Thank you!!

Just to be more precise, I am talking of product labels here. Thanks!

I just tried something, but it failed. I am sure it is due to syntax error. Could someone check it out please ?

Here is what I did:

Code: Select all

    <?php if ($product['thumb']) { ?>
          <div class="image"><?php if ($product['special']) { ?><div class="product-sale-'<? $language['code']; ?>'"></div><?php } ?><a href="<?php echo $product['href']; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $product['thumb']; ?>" title="<?php echo $product['name']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $product['name']; ?>" /></a></div>
          <?php } ?>
and

Code: Select all

<div class="image"><?php if ($product['special']) { ?><div class="product-sale-'<?php echo $language['code']; ?>'"></div><?php } ?><a href="<?php echo $product['href']; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $product['thumb']; ?>" title="<?php echo $product['name']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $product['name']; ?>" /></a></div>
Of course, my style sheet includes the proper class: product-sale-french and product-sale-english.

Ok so I solved this:

In the controller (in this case catalog/controller/product/category.php), I looked for:

Code: Select all

<?php 
class ControllerProductCategory extends Controller {  
	public function index() {
and added at the next line:

Code: Select all

$this->data['language_code'] = $this->session->data['language'];
I then went to my template file (catalog/view/theme/yourtheme/template/product/category.tpl) and changed my info from:
<div class="product-sale-<?php echo $language_code; ?>"></div>
And then proceeded to modify my css as follow:
duplicate all instances of product-sale classes and added to each -fr and -en

And that did the trick! Now all that is left is to do the same to all needed templates and controllers!

Offering discounts for your online store can be a powerful weapon in your conversion arsenal, however, used haphazardly, and you can do significant damage to your brand or worse, become unprofitable.
