One question before I give an answer…
Do you want to run a tri-lingual site with the MLP pack or are you wanting three mono-lingual translations of the ZCR strings for three mono-lingual sites?
First of all, Tks for your reply Steve.
Yes, I’m trying to use ZCR within a tri-lingual website with your [very best] MLP pack. I’d changed all the ZCR strings for that, but I can’t render the corresponding labels into the 3 translations (i.e. Name, Phone and so on…).
Cheers,

You’ll probably need to use the snippet feature on your form that has the zem_contact tags in it.
Could you post your form here and I’ll take a look.

Oops, Steve! I don’t use a form for my contact mailer : I’d put it directly into a page :(
BTW, here is the content :
<div id="contact"> <h1><txp:text item="Contact_H1" /></h1> <txp:zem_contact to="contact@mysite.com"> <p> <txp:text item="Votre" /> <txp:zem_contact_text break="" required="0" label="Nom" /></p> <p><span class="hot">*</span> <txp:text item="Votre" /> <txp:zem_contact_email label="E-mail" break="" /></p> <p> <txp:text item="Votre" /> <txp:zem_contact_text label="Téléphone" min=7 max=15 break="" /></p> <p><span class="hot">*</span> <txp:text item="Votre" /> <txp:zem_contact_textarea label="Message" required="1" break="br" /></p> <p id="anti-spam"><span class="hot">*</span> <txp:text item="Anti-spam" /><br /><txp:zem_contact_checkbox label="Je suis un être humain" /><br /> <span id="info-spam"><txp:text item="Check" /></span></p> <p><txp:zem_contact_submit label="Envoyer" /></p> <p><span class="hot">*</span> <txp:text item="Obligatoire" /></p> </txp:zem_contact> </div> <!-- /contact -->

We can sort this out quite easily using the ##snippet##
format. It’s time for me to put my daughter to bed so I’ll have to delay posting a reply for an hour or so.

Re: MLP - The Multi-Lingual Publishing Pack

This should do the trick…
- Make sure you have
Content > MLP > Preferences > Inline editing of pages and forms
set to “Yes”. If not, set it to yes and save the preferences (Don’t miss that bit!) - Navigate to
Content > MLP > Snippets > Pages
and click on the page that has your ZCR tags in it. - Look at the middle column. The second link down should read “Edit Page: your_page »” — click that link and your page will appear in a textarea in the right-hand column.
- Change all the
label="blahblah"
(etc) over tolabel="##a_snippet_id##"
— note each snippet id (the string within the##...##
block) should be different. When you save this page you will create new strings in the txp_lang table using those names. - You should probably give your new strings meaningful names based on your primary language: French. (ie. Change
<txp:zem_contact_text break="" required="0" label="Nom" />
to<txp:zem_contact_text break="" required="0" label="##zcr_label_nom##" />
) - Change the rest of the labels using whatever scheme you come up with above.
- Save the form.
Saving the form will cause all the new zcr_label_
strings to appear as “snippets” in the middle column.
Now you can click on each snippet in turn to edit each rendition.
Should be easy.

The blank line has nothing to do with the compressed plugin. I tried installing the previous version from the 0.7.636 pack.
The site is on a public server but is protected with .htaccess so only I and some friends can visit it before we launch it to the public.

Yes, understood. I’d still like to collect a little data from this if possible — perhaps you can do the collection in a way that preserves your pre-launch secrecy. If you are ok with this, could you do a wget on the index page (or whatever page is exhibiting the problem) , then truncate the file just after the headers and then email it to me?
