App locale/internationalization does not work

[tomaszwrona]

Hello,

in my XML Dashboard i have following line of code:

<title>text1: $token1$ text2: $token2$</title>

and in my messages.pot i have following line:

#: /opt/splunk/etc/apps/myapp/local/data/ui/views/myviewxml:359
msgid "text1: $token1$ text2: $token2$"
msgstr "translation1: $token1$ translation2: $token2$"

but when i switch the language this title does not get translated.

Where is the problem?

best regards
Tomasz

Hey @tomaszwrona,

Can you try referring this link:
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.1.0/AdvancedDev/TranslateSplunk#Translate_Apps

Let me know if this helps!!

hey @desspashri_123,

yes, sure i did like Splunk says - this configuration comes from messages.pot insinde my app.
It translates all other string but not the one with $token$ inside.
I'm just sure how to workaorund it.

Hi @tomaszwrona,
I also have the same problem at hand. Did you find a way to translate token values to different language (other than English)?
