We’re working with NextGen Gallery author on making NextGen fully translatable. This is a first test release of the updated NGG plugin.<\/strong><\/p>\n

For those who’re not using NextGen Gallery, know that this is a powerful gallery management plugin for WordPress. It allows managing images\u00a0separately\u00a0from WordPress content and inserting galleries and albums anywhere in the site.<\/p>\n

NGG already included facilities for translating strings (like image description, alt, etc.). The problem is, there’s no way you can tell what you’re translating. If the gallery includes 5 images, it’s kinda OK, but for larger galleries, it makes managing translations impossible.<\/p>\n

Knowing What You’re Translating<\/h2>\n

We’ve enhanced NGG’s i18n<\/em> function to include names. These names allow to identify what’s being translated.<\/p>\n

For example, you’ll see this:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Translating texts in NextGen Gallery<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Each string for translation has a name. That name describes what you’re translating.<\/p>\n

So, when you see pic_2_alttext<\/em>, you know that you’re translating the ALT tag for picture #2.<\/p>\n

Additionally, all NextGen texts are grouped under the context ngg_plugin<\/em>. You can translate them separately from other Admin texts.<\/p>\n

Development Version<\/h2>\n

These changes are fresh out of the oven. We’ve tested them and it all looks good, but we’re no NextGen experts.<\/p>\n

This is the updated NGG code:<\/p>\n

\"\" nextgen-gallery.zip<\/a><\/p>\n

To use it, you’ll need the development version of WPML<\/strong>. It’s not quite ready for production sites, but fine for testing purposes. It’s available only for WPML clients.<\/p>\n

If you’re a registered WPML client, leave a message here and we’ll email it to you<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

How to Test<\/h2>\n

All you need to do is save the NGG gallery. WPML then scans the images and registers the strings for translation. Then, head over to WPML->String Translation and filter by context ngg_gallery<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Add the gallery to a translated page and you should see all the image texts translated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
