I have a site in English and want to add Russian. settings.py
LANGUAGE_CODE = 'en'
LANGUAGES = ( ('en', ('English')), ('ru', ('Russian')), )
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = ( 'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', 'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware', 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware', # Uncomment the next line for simple clickjacking protection: # 'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware', )
urls.py
url(r'^i18n/', include('django.conf.urls.i18n')),
Simple form grom django docs
> <form action="/i18n/setlang/" method="post" id="language-select">
> <input name="next" type="hidden" value="/" />
> {% csrf_token %}
> <select name="language">
> {% for lang in LANGUAGES %}
> <option value="{{ lang.0 }}">{{ lang.1 }}</option>
> {% endfor %}
> </select>
> <input type="submit" value="Go" /> </form>
I install gettext, add 'locale' folder (in project folder, near manage.py). Create 'ru folder' with .po file and add some translations. But after language changing it returns [26/Jul/2013 13:43:32] "POST /i18n/setlang/ HTTP/1.1" 302 0 and redirect to English page. What's wrong here?
You have to put django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware after django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware and before django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware
Example:
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware',
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
)
