WhereTo translate User e-mail settings Messages

By Bilmar on 5 Dec 2009 at 15:47 UTC

Hello,

I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction for translating the messages sent to users on registration.
http://example.com/drupal/admin/user/settings

Can these message be sent in a different language?

Thank you very much in advance!

thanks gabriel,

i'm also experimenting the same issue.

do you know which variables correspond to the different mails of this page (subject, body) ? (page: admin/user/settings)
so that i could populate the right settings.php file as described in your link http://drupal.org/node/313272

thanks

Find variables names

In my case I needed "Welcome, no approval required" subject and body variables
and I used successfully :
$conf['i18n_variables'] = array(
'user_mail_register_no_approval_required_subject',
'user_mail_register_no_approval_required_body',
);

You can retrieve any other variable by setting it to a specific value (like : "peek-a-boo!")
and use phpAdmin to search it in 'drupal_variable' table.

After reloading the "User e-mail settings" page (and maybe flushing caches... I'm not sure)
the fields added to $conf['i18n_variables'] should appear with the "This is a multilingual variable".
Then you can translate it editing the "User e-mail settings" page in each languages.

Good luck (if not done yet).
