Is it possible to translate some variables like title or tagline ?

[clovis-lacombe]

For now, I'm pretty happy with i18n system in Docusaurus, however, I have the feeling it is not possible to translate some variables in docusaurus.config.js like title or tagline, but some other variables linked with a plugin like navbar are translatable.

My understanding is correct ?

It isn't a big deal, I can change that directly in the index.js, but I would like to confirm that I understand correctly.

Thanks for your answer

Hi,

Yes this is true that some little strings here and there are not yet translatable, and I plan to add support for the missing bits asap.

Apart that and the announcement banner, have you noticed other untranslatable strings?

hi, @clovis-lacombe. So far, homepage title and tagline are still untranslatable by i18n. How did you translate them in index.json using title={${translate({id: 'homepage.title', message: 'Website title'})}} ? Many thanks.

Also interested in this.

Hi @alexzhc and @RodinGolodin ,

This is the source code we have written for that: https://github.com/Skeptical-Tantra/skeptical-tantra/blob/main/src/pages/index.js#L64
But, now I'm checking better the Website, in fact, this piece of code works only partially for the homepage, not others pages.

If @slorber has any clue to be able to translate data in index.json, we are interested in.

Kind regards

We don't have proper support for it yet, and you'd have to swizzle many components to add similar logic to all the pages if you wanted to do it everywhere => not convenient

We'll mention when it will be supported in #4542

Ok, thanks waiting for #4542 implementation then :-)
