My site:
www.welcome-to-odessa.com

If you click Apartment rental, then click on the picture or details, the pages opens up with details of course, at the bottom where there are additional pictures, you click on a pic, then you are given the option for next or close at the bottom of the pic, but it you change the language to russian, simply click on the russian flag at the top, there is no more close button, its there because if you navigate there and click the window will close, and the next button is still working, what can be wrong here, also where would you do the translation ?

I've checked. As you can see from the CSS, it refers to an image ("../img/1_closeru-RU.png") that not exists, create the file $JOOMLA_ROOT/components/com_properties/includes/img/1_closeru-RU.png (e.g. copying the english one) and it will start working also in russian.

Mmm, big question, something can be translated copying/creating a $JOOMLA_ROOT/languages/ru-RU/ru-RU.com_properties.ini file, for the descriptions and other things you have to use Joom!Fish, but you need an extension for it, search the forum, you should find something .

Hey, Big thanks... don't know why I didn't see it, I will create new .png's for these in russian. or at least the close button, wonder why previous and next do not act the same way. I have all the translation done, but these are .png's so I will have to make a russian version of them.

hello!!!
very nice site!!!

in my site , if I click on a picture it goes on a new page.....how can I do like yours?? with the pupup with next.... it looks amazing!!!

another thing , how can I put extra details on the property , like u did es. iron etc... ???

Thankyou very much if u can answer!!!

Andreas

Andreas:

1) in configuraton of Properties (administrator) you can change the way the photo's open. Please go over the options

2) In the language files you have EXTRAXX (you can to up to EXTRA99). Normally they are on HIDDE , this means they don't show in the front end. If you change them to IRON you will see them in the front end (and backend when you enter a property).

Danny

Did that answer your question ?

Thank you very much!

PROBLEM SOLVED!!

now i'm ready with my site!!

thanks again!!

Andreas

Danny,

Where do I find the language files where I can modify extra features so that they appear under the "HIDDE" in the backend.

Many thanks

I've not understood well what do you mean with "appear under the "HIDDE"" but the language file for the backend is in JOOMLA_BASE/administrator/language/xx-XX/en-GB.com_properties.ini where xx-XX is the language code (e.g. en-GB for english, it-IT for italian and so on).

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I was referring to the guy above (Danny) who was trying to explain where I modify the extra features in the backend

2) In the language files you have EXTRAXX (you can to up to EXTRA99). Normally they are on HIDDE , this means they don't show in the front end. If you change them to IRON you will see them in the front end (and backend when you enter a property).

I want to change the Features that appear as HIDDE...to say DVD Player or Wifi and I was wondering which file or files I need to edit for this.

Thanks again for the quick reply

As said above the language file is in JOOMLA_BASE/administrator/language/xx-XX/xx-XX.com_properties.ini, this is the translation file for the backend, and you will find in it lines of this kind:

In your case change one of the EXTRA## translation from "HIDDE" to "DVD Player":

You have to do the same in the frontend language file situated in JOOMLA_BASE/administrator/language/xx-XX/xx-XX.com_properties.ini.

You're welcome !

Thank you,

Everything works fine now, apart from it only displays one of the text box "HIDDE" Features and not the other ones that I have specified... i.e. I´ve got:

Shops within: 10 mins

It displays this fine but I also have a few other fields such as Bars within, Airport within etc. underneath. I've entered data for them and they appear on the backend, but they won't show on the frontend for some reason...only the first one.

Any ideas???

Have you changed the EXTRA## translation also in the frontend file (JOOMLA_BASE/administrator/language/xx-XX/xx-XX.com_properties.ini) too?
The extra field number for the same feature is the same for frontend and backend?

yep 100%

I copied and pasted the list in exactly the same format...this has been drivin me nuts!!!!

Thanks again osys.it

EXTRA´s 41 to 45 are the text fields..."shops within" shows up fine but the other 4 won't display???

Thank you for your time

I suspect the 41 magic number comes from the code. If you look at the PHP files in JOOMLA_BASE/components/com_properties/views/templates/ (here an example) and search for "extra41" you will find it, but if you search "extra42" you will not.

These files determine the way things are presented to the user so you have to make your hands dirty and change the code or use only the extra already used in templates.

Glad to help when/how I can.

I see what you mean.

I've updated the 3 details.php and copied and pasted the:

<?php if($Product->extra42){echo '<tr><td align="right">'.JText::_('extra42') .':</td><td align="left">'. JText::_( $Product->extra42 ) .'</td></tr>';} ?>

and changed the numbers in the code accordingly but it still doesn't display...are there any other files that I need to update to show this or is it too many to even contemplate?

As you've probably guessed I'm not a coder

You don't have to changes all the PHP files in the templates folder, you have to change only the files you need.

To see which template is used for "Property Details" and "Properties List" see the Properties configuration in the backend.

Don't worry, you get the idea the same, you just need to discover which files are used in your site, make some experiment and you will succeed .

I did it...wooohooo!!!

Thank you so much for your help bro!!!
