In Magento 1 I just added a translate.csv for my admin area.
How can I achieve this in Magento 2?
I just want to change the translations of a few things and add some missing translations. Can't I put a de_De.csv for the adminhtml area somewhere?
How to handle translations for the admin panel (backend).
Thanks
You can download code from here
Edit/Add CSV as per your Locale. app/design/adminhtml/Shah/default/i18n
With your custom module, you can create an i18n folder and place your translation file inside. The path should look like this:
app\code\vendor\module\i18n\yourTranslationFile.csv
which in your case isde_De.csv
In Magento 2, translations file is saved in /vendor/magento/<module-modulename>/i18n folder.
For example, if you want to modify translation for word related to checkout module, it could be saved in /vendor/magento/module-checkout/i18n/<locale-folder> folder.
You can copy locale's csv file from /vendor/magento/module-checkout/i18n folder to app/code/Magento/module-checkout/i18n directory.
I tried your solution on Magento 2.2.9 but seems not working
I need to add fr_FR.csv translation for some extensions who are under /vendor/amasty/extension_name
so I had created directory structure under /app/code/Amasty/Extension_name/i18n
and uploaded fr_FR.csv file inside
... but translation doesn't work !
N.B : if i upload fr_FR.csv file under the /vendor/...../i18n it works but in this case each time I update the extension, it erease the translation file.
Does someone find a solution for module translation ? Thanks a lot
put translate file under theme not working for backend.
Need create a custom module, add in module.xml, then add translation file under i18n folder (vendor/VENDOR/MODULE/i18n/en_NZ.csv, or app/code/.../i18n/en_NZ.csv).
Double-check your account interface Locale set properly. e.g. en_NZ.csv work for English(New Zealand).
above solution not working for en_US, if need support this, then just create admin theme, follow magento docs https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.4/frontend-dev-guide/themes/admin_theme_create.html and https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.4/frontend-dev-guide/themes/admin_theme_apply.html
then add en_NZ.csv/en_US.csv under admin theme i18n folder.
