Make default value for field_object_other multilingual #39

Closed heliogabal closed 7 years ago

heliogabal commented 7 years ago

This is a long standing issue that is getting more urgent as we are about to fully utilize the site in several languages.

In the object, there is the field_object_other that holds some legal disclaimer text that rarely changes, but needs to be adoptable by an editor. Therefore, I just used the default value of the field to provide the standard text that should go there. This is working fine, except that it isn't translatable, so it can be either German or English. This is apparently a shortcoming of the Drupal 7 multilingual capabilities: https://www.drupal.org/node/2427825. https://www.drupal.org/node/2342919

There is one module which might help because it says the default value supports node and field translation, but it might be dangerous to use as apparently it overwrites existing value (not default) if it is applied to all fields. Apart from that, I didn't find much for a solution.

If you manage to make the defaults translatable, here are the default values for German and English (Russian and Chinese translations pending):
