I have built multi-language application.But at this point I see lot of trouble to edit my translations through ActiveAdmin interface. I want to be able add/edit translations through this interface. Because using seeds.rb is not an option for user.
Idea is to have 2 text fields when editing/creating product, where in the first one I could write product description in my native language and in second description in english. I don't to create new column for products table. I wan't to use built in Globalize3 structure.
Where is other table like category_translations.
If I try like this:
form :html => { :enctype => "multipart/form-data" } do |f|
f.inputs "Content" do
f.input :name
f.input :condition, :collection => @condition,:hint=>"Select condition"
f.input :sub_desc, :input_html => { :class => "tinymce" }
f.input :description, :input_html => { :class => "tinymce" },:locale=>'en'
f.input :description, :input_html => { :class => "tinymce" },:locale=>'lv'
f.input :technical_data, :input_html => {:class=>"tinymce" }
f.input :intro_text
f.input :category, :collection => @category
f.input :slug
f.input :manufacturer, :collection => @manufacturer,:hint=>"Choose manufacturer"
end
f.inputs "Image" do
f.input :photo, :as => :file, :hint=>"Select image to upload. Allowed file formats *jpg *png, Soft signs not Allowed"
#form :partial => "form"
end
f.actions
end
Where I am trying to set locale variable to input, but this gives me no errors at all. Somebody had similar problem ?
You should check the activeadmin-globalize gem. It gives you a nice interface to handle fields that has translations.
Gem for Globalize3: https://rubygems.org/gems/activeadmin-globalize3
I have not tested this version, because we are using Globalize in our project with the activeadmin-globalize taken from: https://github.com/stefanoverna/activeadmin-globalize.
There is a pull request that lowers the dependency of activeadmin-globalize so it can be used in a Rails 3.2 app: https://github.com/stefanoverna/activeadmin-globalize/pull/38
