Summary11666: Hard to use 'localized" plugins setting option
Description

For a plugin dev , it's hard to use localized in a setting of a plugin:

Steps To Reproduce

Find a way to use localized/multi language setting in a plugin

Additional Information

If localized : settings widget add the language to the name {$name}[$lang] : great : https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/blob/master/application/extensions/SettingsWidget/SettingsWidget.php#L170

The current must be an array : https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/blob/master/application/extensions/SettingsWidget/SettingsWidget.php#L269

But we can only senhd an array : name is the key : then you can not really have the same key for multiple language input ..... then you need different input.

Actaully : i fond only a way for fix it adding -$lang to the namle , and some bad hacking when saving : https://framagit.org/SondagePro-LimeSurvey-plugin/adaptEnterErrorSurveyText/blob/master/adaptEnterErrorSurveyText.php#L303

dirty but working

Easy solution : allow name in metaData , and get it for the name of the input :

if ($metaData['name']){
$name=$metaData['name'];
}
Here : https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/blob/master/application/extensions/SettingsWidget/SettingsWidget.php#L163

ANd this can be used for other purpose.

The best way, i think can be: use $metaData['language'] as an array of the language to be used. But this is really more complex actually: one setting must show multiple inpit. And we can not have a good way to show something like this

  • FR
    Input 1 FR
    Input 2 FR
  • EN
    Input 1 EN
    Input 2 EN

Like we have in LS core settings

No, not actually :)

But i think it's not related. Here it's the "localized"=>true for settings.
For example : when you want to show a textarea for each language in a survey :
https://framagit.org/SondagePro-LimeSurvey-plugin/adaptEnterErrorSurveyText/blob/master/adaptEnterErrorSurveyText.php#L111

(i update the title to be more clear).

@olle : you have an advice about it ?

$metaData['language'] as array seems OK for you ?
or better allow $metaData['name'] ?
or , maybe : allow $metaData['name'] + fix name if "localized"=>true ?
or : another great idea (or not great)

:)

Tested some code ....

Not OK because we need a 'global' tabs.

Then :

  1. Adding fieldset system
  2. Add a language in fieldset : if the fieldset have language (in array): show all input in this fieldset with each language set
