My site has two languages (English and Arabic)
The Breadcrumb on the Arabic page is showing "Home | |
Questions:
1. How to change the word "Home" to the Arabic word?
2. The hyperlink for is linked to the English version. How to change to the /ar instead of /en?

 

Gillian, I would recommend you submit a new forum post since this is not the subject of the original poster.

 

 

I split it off into a separate thread (there is a useful but buggy Forums feature to split a thread)

Awesome - thanks John!

Gillian, I believe you will find this resource key in Global Resources > SharedResources > Home.Text.

Hi John. Thanks for your help!

Hi David. I've tried changing the "Localized Value" for Home to Arabic word but it doesnt seem working.
Also how about the hyperlink of the "<Parent page name in Arabic>"?

I googled and found someone recommend to use DDR menu instead of DNN Breadcrumb for better flexibility.

Any thoughts?

Localization is quite a complex subject and others may be more qualified to help. The context in which you are working, and how you are going about managing localized values, needs to be considered (admin-only text, page management, content, etc.). In general, you need to have a "language pack" installed/enabled for each language you wish to support on the site. For localized text managed within the persona bar of DNN v9.x.x, you will see a language switcher at the top right corner of any view/page that supports localization. You can switch to the language you want to manage, update the value, and save. For more some things, you would need to edit the appropriate resource file(s). For content, this really depends on the module and its level of support and features for localization. Then there is the capability within a theme to use a language switcher theme object so the site visitor can switch languages.

Bottom line...the more specific you can be about your DNN instance and what you are trying to achieve, the higher the chance will be for someone to provide specific guidance.

As there are many ways to create a breadcrumb in a DNN Theme, do you know what Theme you are using?
Can you post the code in the Theme for the breadcrumb?

BTW, I crated that example using DDR. I would only use that option unless you have some complex requirements. Normally the default Breadcrumb Theme Object should be fine.

 

If it is the DNN breadcrumbs SkinObject, then it appears to me from the code that it will use the localized page name. Which means you would need to change the home page name in each locale.
