Is there any way to make shoutbox multilingual ? When you browsing the page in english, shoutbox should show english shouts (and every shout added when browsing in english shoud be marked in code as english), when browsing in french for example, you should see only french shouts - and when u add a shout it should be marked as french.

spamator12 commentedHmmm is this possible to make 2 shoutbox blocks and set one to display only in specific language ? (yousite.com/en/*).
Comment #2
kerios83 commentednope it's not possible. However in Visibility settings - Languages you can set that Shoutbox only appear in specific language. So u can set up shoutbox to work with for example english language but shoutbox won't appear when your user change language for something else.

kelutrab11 commentedI need multilingual shoutbox ! After add another language, shoutbox on my site is a total mess :(
Comment #4
batigol commentedI have the same problem. Some of my users write on English some on Deutch. I would like to have 2 version of shoutbox - one for each language. Will this feature be add in near future ?

batigol commentedAny reply would be appreciated.

disterics commentedThis is a possibility for a future version but I currently cannot commit to when that will be.
Comment #7
kerios83 commentedOk, thx for answer I will wait till shoutbox could use this feature - cause normal version for multilingual site is not so good idea.
Comment #8
kelutrab11 commentedGreat, but some ETA would be nice... like half a year, a year, 3 months. Not a specific release date but something we might consider when planing to use this great module.
Comment #9
batigol commentedHow is the job going ? Do you need any help to test something ?
Comment #10
kerios83 commentedAny plans to make Shoutbox multilingual ?
Comment #11
kelutrab11 commentedIs this possible to have 2 shoutbox on one site ? Then simply disallow /en/* would work nice if you ask me.
Comment #12
batigol commentedNo it's not possibile and that is the one of the biggest issue.
Comment #13
kelutrab11 commentedAhh you can display it twice, but you can't display 2 separate shoutboxs. Maybe Entity translations will work here?
Comment #14
pwiniacki commentedI to need multilingual shoutbox. Will this feature soon be available ? Do maintainers plan to make this module available for multilingual sites ?
Comment #15
kelutrab11 commented@batigol you are right. It's not possible to set 2 shoutboxs so only one appear on EN language prefix and the other on other language.
Comment #16
batigol commentedI would love to see that on my site. I guess it would be comments assigned to specific content type (or even a node - shoutbox) with entity module so they are marked with specific language and the quick change between languages is easy and simple.
Comment #17
kelutrab11 commentedAny news about this one ?
Comment #18
spamator12 commentedI guess no. To the time shoutbox will be internationalized I did create special node when all users can write comment and properly display it with help of views. It's working really nice, you can also use forum for that, with i18n 1.5++ its fully support internationalization. But look out for taxonomy translation problem in 1.7.
