Multi language support for field edit. about settings HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @kee0624!

Right now Settings doesn't support to have some translatable values.
It is possible to do it for your project, you'll need to replace the current Controller and the current Model.

You can replace Backpack SettingCrudController by doing a bind;

// service provider
public function boot()
{
    $this->app->bind(
        \Backpack\Settings\app\Http\Controllers\SettingCrudController::class, 
        \App\Http\Controllers\SettingCrudController::class
    );
}

Then you'll need to define your Settings Model in the overriden controller, something like this;
(please note this code may have bugs, it's not tested)

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

class SettingCrudController extends \Backpack\Settings\app\Http\Controllers\SettingCrudController
{
    public function setup()
    {
        parent::setup();

        CRUD::setModel(\App\Models\Setting::class);
    }
}

Then on your Model you can set use HasTranslations and set $translatable = ['value'].
Note that this will make value translatable for all the keys.

@kee0624 for now I'll close this issue, but if you have any doubt about this, feel free to to ask ✌

Hey - just wanted to jump in to say we have no plans to make this package support multi-language settings.
So if anybody needs that, they should roll their own.

One way is what @promatik suggested above.
Another way would be to copy everything from this package into their own project, replace the namespaces, and modify to their liking.

Each with his own 😀

Cheers!
