I have a muliti-language theme. But in a specific section, I only want two languages. If user select french , the section’s language is french, if user select other languages, the section’s language is english.
The github copilot tell’s me use this code :
{% if request.query.locale == 'fr' %}
{%assign locale = 'fr' %}
{% else %}
{%assign locale = 'en' %}
{% endif %}
<H2>{{ 'general.accessibility.skip_to_content' | t: locale }} </H2>
It can run ,but it doesn’t work, how should I do?
Hi @qinhuanle0805 ,
Ensure your locale files are set up correctly:
locales/en.default.json:
{
"general": {
"accessibility": {
"skip_to_content": "Skip to content"
}
}
}
locales/fr.default.json:
{
"general": {
"accessibility": {
"skip_to_content": "Aller au contenu"
}
}
}
And Here’s an updated code , please try it.
{% if request.query.locale == 'fr' %}
{% assign locale = 'fr' %}
{% else %}
{% assign locale = 'en' %}
{% endif %}
##
{% case locale %}
{% when 'fr' %}
{{ 'general.accessibility.skip_to_content' | t }}
{% else %}
{{ 'general.accessibility.skip_to_content' | t: locale }}
{% endcase %}
If our suggestion is useful, please don’t forget like and mark as a solution . Thank you very much !
Thanks for reply,but the code still not works well .
I checked the locale files , they are ok.
I tested this code for force change all languages to english, it’s also failed.
## {{ 'general.accessibility.skip_to_content' | t: 'en' }}
Does the translation filter has this usage? It is not mentioned in the document Storefront locale files (shopify.dev) , or something else affected it ?
Looking forward to your reply.
Hi @qinhuanle0805 ,
Can you show me the configuration of the locales/en.default.json and locales/fr.default.json files? I am using the Dawn theme and my configuration for general and accessibility will be on the same level.
