multilang html-block titleI

Hello,

I am working currently on a multilanguage moodlesite with 4 languages. The content and title of content is translated as expected.

If inserting an HTML-block, I can insert multilang content, but no multilang title of this block. The language settings in the title are ignored by Moodle and it shows all titles at once.

Is there any way to also translate the title of HTML-blocks? (I am running Moodle 1.9)


Regards, Daniel

I have not tested this, but in the absence of other suggestions, how about the following:
  1. open "blocks/moodleblock.class.php" with a text editor
  2. locate the following line (around line 356 in the "_title_html" function):
    $title .= '<h2>'.$this->title.'</h2>';
  3. change the above line to:
    $title .= '<h2>'.filter_text($this->title).'</h2>';
  4. saved the modified file
hope that helps
Gordon

If this works, it should be posted into the bugtracker for possible inclusion in Moodle distro.

Hello Gordon,

I tried your solution and it works perfectly! So I posted a message to the bug-tracker about this issue.

@Anthony: I had already activated filter anything in the filter section of Moodle

Daniel - Before modifying the code, try going to the Administration Block and under filter settings there should be an option to filter all strings. Turn that on and see if it does the trick. Peace - Anthony
