In the language file I didn't saw the translations. Where they can be and where I can define the code because it seems it is not UTF-8

[jacobi22]

do you use the latest bakery Version?
the russian language file there is encoded in utf8 / without boom
to see the language variables in (for you) readable text, you need a decoder like notepad++

Here a pic with some line of this file in notepad++


to the mail...look into the mail-source-code to the header of this email and there specially to the used charset. Search for entries like this
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed

alsopossible, that your mailserver doesnt support utf8 (like the german gmx)

[rumen]

My mailer by default is set to utf-8.

I did new language file for BG. I translated most of it. But the e-mail confirmation I think is not from that file. I did't find any of the English sentences there -  like "Thank you for shopping at"

That means that these can be somewhere else not in the language file and if there is not defined the language code ... So where can be that?

The language file is OK here is part of it:

have you check the language files in the used payment methodes? (folder: modules/bakery/payment method/all used payment methodes)

P.S.: i see the module "language-edit" - is it the old module from2007/2008 or a newer version?  if the old one, be carefull with it, its very dangerous. its recommened to remove it from the online server if you finish with your work. its possible to overtake the database control.

Tip: use a locale wb-portable to work with this module, install it in the WB-Demo-Project

[rumen]

Thanks for the hint - I will check payment methods - maybe the issue comes from there.

I bought from the Bulgarian version, by definition it should use the Bulgarian file language. But in the e-mail I get the English version.

It is strange also that I choose "Method of payment" to be a "Cash on delivery" - I save the settings and when I enter again on the place, where is the method of payment is "Advance payment" see the pic's:





 

[rumen]

And the issue with the e-mail confirmation is the same (texts like Thank you for shopping at apokalypsabg.org. should be in Bulgarian in this case.):

back at home from the doc - now step by step 

the language for the confirmation form and also for the confirmation emails are defined in view_confirmation.p hp in this part

Code: [Select]

// Look for payment method language file
        if (LANGUAGE_LOADED) {
                include(WB_PATH.'/modules/bakery/payment_methods/'.$payment_method.'/languages/EN.php');
                if (file_exists(WB_PATH.'/modules/bakery/payment_methods/'.$payment_method.'/languages/'.LANGUAGE.'.php')) {
                        include(WB_PATH.'/modules/bakery/payment_methods/'.$payment_method.'/languages/'.LANGUAGE.'.php');
                }
        }
it means: load as a basic language the english language file from the payment-method-folder
plus
if there is a file with a valid language code from the selected language on this (frontend-)page, load this file.

the last loaded definition from a language variable replace then the english variable. is one of the variable not defined in your used language, take the variable from the english file.

the english file is the main file and included all!!! language variables, in wb-core, in bakery main language file and also in the payment method.

So, for you:
- be sure, that u use the correct language code for the bulgarian file (BG.php)
- be sure, that you have a file with this name (BG.php) in every in your shop activated payment-method-language-folder
- be sure, that you have a translation in this! BG.php for every in the EN.php used language variable

some little helpers... but be carefull, if you work on the online project and not on a test-page

search in view_confirmation.p hp for this code, its nearly on the top. replace the EN in this line

include(WB_PATH.'/modules/bakery/payment_methods/'.$payment_method.'/languages/EN.php');

with the BG for a test, so its load only the BG.php and everything must be come in your favorite language
visible only in the confirmation-mails
Dont forget to remove it after the test or it use the bulgarian language also on english pages (or better:) in the confirmation mail for a english speaker

if i look to your last post.... another simple tip.... 
if you are not sure about the chars in your mail, copy all this chars from your email, go to a WB-Page with a wysiwyg-Editor, switch to source-code and add there your text, then switch back to the normal editor view (preview) and you see a translation like this



it looks, that your bakery or your mailserver use htmlspecialchars to display the cyrillic chars. i did not found a function for that in the actual bakery version. bakery has a own phpmailer, so it has nothing to do with the wb-mailer

[rumen]

I changed the language in view_confirmation.p hp and try to input new order.

I got error when I entered the names in Cyrillic:

[rumen]

When I changed the names in Latin letters I got the order - done, but the confirmation is the same:

Hi Rumen

1.
In your Bakery language files do not replace Cyrillic characters by html entities, especially not in email text. Just use Cyrillic chars and save the file using utf-8 encoding.

2.
Your main Bakery localization file BG.php must include code to define additional charset to be accepted by the customer address form validation. Add this to the file:

Code: [Select]

// ADDRESS FORM VALIDATION
$MOD_BAKERY['ADD_CHARSET'] = 'Cyrillic';

[rumen]

Hello,

this should be applied to ../modules/bakery/languages/BG.php only, or to all language files? In bakery I saw many of them like ../modules/bakery/payment_methods/cod/languages/BG.php

[rumen]

It works now!!!!

I put that code ini all BG.php files (for any case), I changed the code in the Backend (Payment method) and now it works!

Thanks a lot for the help freeSbee and jacobi22

Hi Rumen

As mentioned in my post above (2.) it complies with Bakery if you add it to the main localization file /bakery/languages/BG.php

Regards Christoph

[rumen]

Thanks a lot! I think it works perfect now!
