Hi,
I am using the Taxonomy Block and the Localizer module with pleasure. I heard that the Taxonomy Block is allready been port to Drupal 5 which is great! I would like to use this module in a multi-language environment.
I am trying this myself with a great friend from Nepal, but maybe somebody is allready doing this.
Please get in contact or post your patch to get taxonomy-block multilanguageable.
I would like to have the same behaviour as with menus with Localizer or the behaviour which regular blocks have.

Greetings and thanks for your reply!

Martijn

Did you apply the patch for taxonomy.module that is provided in the /patches directory?

I am not sure if I understand you correctly. I don't see a patch for the taxonomy_block module in http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/modules/localizer/pat...

Can you write down the exact url of the patch you are referring to?
Thanks in advance,

greetings,
Martijn

There is a taxonomy.module.patch which you need to apply on taxonomy.module (in /modules/taxonomy).

This is because the output of Taxonomy Block is based on taxonomy terms.

Please also bear in mind that there is no support for Freetagging yet. That might change with Localizer v2.0.

I did install this patch (the patch for taxonomy.module).
It will not give the asked localizer switch/support for the Taxonomy_Block (Within the Admin/Block section).

You mean you want to translate the block's content yourself?

Localizer only allows you to translate custom blocks that were created by an user. It's currently impossible to translate a block that has been created by a module, because Localizer does not know which fields of a block can be translated. Localizer v2 allows 3rd party modules to define their own translatable fields.

Taxonomy_block lets a user/admin make a block with title, length, quantity of nodes and a category/taxonomy term.
The block is user created, but it is not an ordinary block. It is under the block menu situated with installing the module.
But the localizer switch is not shown in the create block menu.
Is this in your opinion a module-driven block or still a user-made?

It's a module-driven block. User-defined blocks contain only a textarea to write stuff in (click on 'Add block' tab in admin/build/blocks).
