Multilingual booking form in Joomla

Post by joomilove » Wed Jun 19, 2013 5:57 pm

I am implementing a website with Joomla! and I am using a component named Jumi. This component basically allows you implement a PHP script and integrate it with the Joomla CMS. With this component, I created a PHP script which acts as a simple booking system. The user fills in information, such as name, surname, type of booking, etc... and an email is sent to me.

Since the website is multilingual, I need to translate these fields. I don't want to transfer them manually however. Joomla has a folder entitled languages which lets you translate from there. However I can't find how to do such a thing when using this component.

Any help?

Many thanks

EDIT----

Hi DisgruntledGoat,

I already tried that but didn't work. Here is my structure:

I have a folder in the root entitled booknow. Inside this folder there is ia php file with the booking form. I tried replacing

Code: Select all

<td>Name</td>
with

Code: Select all

<td><?php JText::_( 'Name' ) ?></td>
Then I created an ini file entitled it-IT.com_jumi.ini. I also created one with the folder name just in case it-IT.com_booknow.ini with the following content:

Code: Select all

Name=Nome
Didn't work though...

Any other ideas?

Many thanks
Joomla! is a extremely customizable
