How to Import Translated Messages Into Joget Workflow
Let's take the Korean language as an example. After downloading the .po files, follow these steps to import the translated messages:
- Navigate to System Settings > Manage Messages.
- Click on the "Import PO File" button.
- Browse through for the .po file that you downloaded, then upload it.
- Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the rest of the .po files.
To enable the Korean language display, navigate to System Settings > System Setup, look for the System Locale option, then select the relevant locale which, for this example, is ko. Click on the "Submit" button; the selected locale (language) will take immediate effect.
For other languages, please refer to the corresponding locale as written above.
Setting the locale on the fly
You may append the parameter named "_lang" to override the current locale that you are seeing. For example, you can set the locale to Chinese by setting "_lang=zh_CN".
To reset, simply set the parameter "_lang" value to empty.
How To Copy Message Records To Another Joget Platform
If you need to migrate Manage Messages records from one platform to another, you can use this demonstration app APP_export_import_edit_message_dx_kb.jwa to export the system locale message records and import them into another Joget platform (for example from Joget Cloud to your Joget On-Premise). Just import the app in both of these platforms to use. The app read and write to the System Locale Message database table ( jwdb.wf_resource_bundle_message ) using JDBC ( SQL syntax is based on MySQL, so do change as required for MSSQL/ORACLE or PostgreSQL ). This app is not designed to read or write the ".po" or ".properties" file. The app just helps you edit or migrate records you have already created in the Manage Messages screen to another Joget installation.
