How to add a DropDown Language Picker (i18n) to the Menu

Created 4 months ago by JQL, updated 3 months ago by JQL.

Yii comes with internationalisation (i18n) "out of the box". There are instructions in the manual as to how to configure Yii to use i18n, but little information all in one place on how to fully integrate it into the bootstrap menu. This document attempts to remedy that.

Created 5 years ago by CeBe, updated 5 years ago by CeBe.

Yii 2.0 comes with a formatter component to format dates, numbers, and other values for international users according to their locale. This is very useful for displaying data. When working with incoming data or when using enhanced input methods like the [MaskedInput widget](https://www.yiiframework.com/doc/api/2.0/yii-widgets-maskedinp...

How to provide a fallback or mapping for translation messages?

Created 10 years ago by schmunk, updated 9 years ago by schmunk.

Sometimes you want to use exisiting translations for locales, which do not directly match. An example would be a website targeting Germany (de_de), Austria (de_at) and Switzerland (de_ch, fr_ch, it_ch). Although you may have exisiting translations for German (de), French (fr) and Italian (it), there are problems using it directly.

How to extend CFormatter, add i18n support to booleanFormat and use it in CDetailView

Created 12 years ago by c@cba, updated 12 years ago by c@cba.

As you know, the CDetailView widget displays details of a single model. If no formatting is specified, boolean values that are stored in the database as 0 and 1, are represented in the detail view as 0 and 1. If formatted as boolean, they are represented as 'No' and 'Yes'. We want to add i18n support, so that Yes and No appear in the current language.

How to obtain a grammatically correct translation of the model name in giix-generated view files

Created 12 years ago by c@cba, updated 12 years ago by c@cba.

The giix code generator has out of the box i18n support for model names and attribute labels (besides other cool features > check it out!) .
But I want to factor in not only the plural form, but also the grammatical cases (especially the accusative) while translating 'Manage Objects', 'Create Object', 'Edit Object' etc.

How to set up Unicode

Created 15 years ago by Mike, updated 10 years ago by Roman Solomatin.

To fix issues with display of special language characters once and for all there's a solution: use Unicode UTF-8 everywhere. If everything is set up to use Unicode, you can use mostly every language in your application.
