[Archivesspace_Users_Group] translation missing: en.brand.welcome_message

[Chris Fitzpatrick]

Hi,

Yes, it's using a format called YAML ( http://www.yaml.org/start.html ).

Value pairs are seperated by a colon. Structure is shown by indention. You have to keep the indention uniform through-out the structure, so in this case you would nest values with two-spaces.


And sorry if the indention didn't come through in the email. My email browers is showing it did, but that might not always be the case...


replace _ with spaces:


en:
__brand:
____title: My Archive
____home: Home
____welcome_message: Special Collections Research Center Archives Online


title is a child of brand. brand is a child of en. title and home are siblings. does that make sense?


b,chris.

Hi Doug,



I just did this a week or two ago, and got the same message you did.  I researched online, and discovered that the ruby on rails convention is two spaces, and that using tab will mess up the code: http://www.caliban.org/ruby/rubyguide.shtml#indentation



I was using tab, and once I cleared that out, my code over-ride worked.  But yes, the indentation is significant.  It's apparently part of the ruby on rails syntax.  I don't have an explanation for why since I'm not a strong coder in anything but html. :-)

Apologies, but I don't understand the difference between that and what I used aside from indentation. Is indentation functional rather than just aesthetic?

Hi Doug,

Yes, the title, home, and welcome_message need to be children nested in brand, not as siblings.

Like:
en:
brand:
title: My Archive
home: Home
welcome_message: Special Collections Research Center Archives Online

Try that...

b,chris.

I followed the instructions at:
https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/wiki/Customizing-&-Theming-ArchivesSpace

trying to change "Welcome to Archivesspace" to "Special Collections Research Center Archives Online"

I created the specified file
archivesspace/plugins/local/public/locales/en.yml
as follows:

en:
brand:
title: My Archive
home: Home
welcome_message: Special Collections Research Center Archives Online

I restarted the server, and now I get "translation missing: en.brand.welcome_message" on the front page.

Any ideas?
