Translation of XLF files

With the AI Suite, you have the ability to automatically translate the XLF files of your extensions.

The following section explains the procedure step by step.

Only for administrators with server access

This functionality should only be used if you also have access to the extension and the (generated) XLF files on the server, as changes cannot usually be made from the TYPO3 backend.

1. Where can I find the function?

To get to the input mask, follow these steps:

Open the AI Suite backend module
Switch to the "Agency" section
Select the option "Translate XLF file"

2. Structure of the initial input mask

Select the desired model for your translation of the XLF file
Enter the extension key of the extension where your XLF file is stored
Select the name of your XLF file
Choose your target language
Decide whether the whole file or only the missing translations should be generated
Start your translation

XLF files in standard paths

Currently, only XLF files that are stored in the standard path "Resources/Private/Language/" within the respective extension can be translated.

3. Validate the Results

After the translations have been created, you can now validate the results and make the necessary adjustments.

The validation mask is structured as follows:

Translation Labels
1. Label in the source language as a heading
2. ID of the label in parentheses
3. Generated translation with the possibility of editing
Saving the XLF file

4. View of the generated XLF file

Once you have saved everything, you will find the translated file in the chosen extension and under “Resources/Private/Language/”.

Furthermore, the backend module will also display a corresponding success message.
