Do you think of something similar to the itemtype description translation but for branchnames? (In reply to Katrin Fischer from comment #1) > Do you think of something similar to the itemtype description translation > but for branchnames? Yes Also Library street adresses. chris: can you give an example? Here I think it would always be the same, as a street name doesn't change with translation. Here's an example: Finnish: https://hakemisto.kirjastot.fi/porvoo Swedish: https://hakemisto.kirjastot.fi/sv/porvoo Name of the library in Finnish: Porvoon kaupunginkirjasto Name of the library in Swedish: Borgå stadsbibliotek Address in Finnish: Papinkatu 20, 06100 Porvoo Address in Swedish: Prästgatan 20, 06100 Borgå Notice how even the name of the city changes (Porvoo/Borgå). Finland is just one of the multilingual conuntries of the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_multilingual_countries_and_regions We even have street signs in two languages to comply to the rules of equal treatment. Thx for the explanation! This would be a good feature, not only do we need to use the official languages (Finnish & Swedish) but it'd also be nice to translate the branchname to English as we have a lot of foreign customers. |
