Struggling with trans in a input placeholder

2018-01-11 21:13 J.Doe imported from Stackoverflow

Here is the HTML part

<div class="col-md-4 col-sm-4">
      <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder={% trans "First Name" %} id="cf-fn" name="cf-fn" required="">
</div>

Instead of getting 'First Name', I got just 'First'. Here is a photo:

enter image description here

How could I fix it?

    I've never used django yet but I think it's an HTML problem.

    Try setting the placeholder value between double quotes:

    <div class="col-md-4 col-sm-4">
      <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="{% trans "First Name" %}" id="cf-fn" name="cf-fn" required="">
</div>

    Without the double quotes the browser is getting just the first word as the placeholder value and the second word is used as another attribute (Name) with no value.

  • django-filters compatability issue with Djang 2.1

    I was upgrading a Django app from 1.8 to 2.1. The app was already using django-filters 0.11.0. As part of upgradation, django-filter has been upgraded to 2.0.0 and Django to 2.1.2. But when starting the app getting the following error

    RuntimeError: populate() isn't reentrant

    The error disappears if I remove the django-filters from the installed app list.

    Any idea what's causing this issue? from the documentation, these versions seem compatible

  • how to run migrations on a standalone django reusable app?

    I'm new to django and making contributions, so I started working on this django reusable app on github.

    The thing is, I made some changes on one of the models and I want to run migrations.

    Since it's a standalone app, not part of a project-how do I do this? (Since I can't run python manage.py makemigrations)

  • GetUserPreferredUILanguages() never returns more than two languages

    I'm trying to retrieve the complete list of the user's preferred languages from a C++/Qt application, as configured in the "Region & language" page in the user's preferences:

    Preferred languages

    For that, I am trying with the WinAPI function GetUserPreferredUILanguages(), on an up-to-date Windows 10 Pro system.

    However, the function always only returns the first entry (the main Windows display language), and "en-US". If English is configured as the main language, then only "en-US" is returned. E.g., if I have (German, French, English) configured, ["de-de", "en-US"] is returned, French is omitted. If I add more languages to the list, they are omitted as well. I also looked at User Interface Language Management, but to no avail. GetSystemPreferredUILanguages() for example only returns "en-US". GetUILanguageFallbackList() returns ["de-de", "de", "en-US", "en"].

    The code I use:

    // calling GetUserPreferredUILanguages() twice, once to get number of 
// languages and required buffer size, then to get the actual data

ULONG numberOfLanguages = 0;
DWORD bufferLength = 0;
const auto result1 = GetUserPreferredUILanguages(MUI_LANGUAGE_NAME,
                                                 &numberOfLanguages,
                                                 nullptr,
                                                 &bufferLength);
// result1 is true, numberOfLanguages=2

QVector<wchar_t> languagesBuffer(static_cast<int>(bufferLength));
const auto result2 = GetUserPreferredUILanguages(MUI_LANGUAGE_NAME,
                                                 &numberOfLanguages,
                                                 languagesBuffer.data(),
                                                 &bufferLength);

// result2 is true, languageBuffer contains "de-de", "en-US"

    Is this not the right function to use, or am I misunderstanding something about the language configuration in Windows 10? How can I get the complete list of preferred languages? I see UWP API that might do the job, but if possible, I'd like to use C API, as it integrated more easily with the C++ codebase at hand. (unmanaged C++, that is)

  • Play Framework dynamic intertionalization I18N

    I have a Play Framework 2.5.15 application.

    I use I18N intertionalization in several languages, it is working well. But for all dynamics objects for example category management there is problem. We have label and description and an admin can add a new object on the admin interface.

    So we can not add a text dynamically in messages.fr,en etc...

    How can we achieve this case ? have we to add a DB table especially for this ? how do we process in form view ? add dyamic fields ?, with language and the translation ?

    imagine we manage 20 languages, it will be a huge thing to manage ?

    Any idea ?

  • How to get all translations message domains in Symfony

    TL;DR: I would like to programmatically get all Message Translations Domains of an application made with Symfony 3.4.

    An example of expected result:

    $domains = $this->get('translator')->getDomains();
//$domains = ['home', 'messages', ...]

    But i don't find a method returning application domains in translator service. Is there an another service returning all application domains?

    Thanks!
