Hi,
I have added several customized user profile fields. Is there a way to translate these terms when the user changes languages? I know how to translate terms that are listed in a Moodle file, but the terms in the custome user profile fields are written directly to the database.
Is there a solution for this?
Thanks
Clarence
Hi Clarence,
Perhaps you could try using the multi-lang filter? See Multi language content for details.
I'm just going to move your discussion thread to the languages forum in case anyone else has any ideas...
Hi Helen,
Thanks for the suggestion. However, I assume the Multi language tags will only work when entered in the HTML editor.
I added a drop list to the user profile that has a list of options. The user selects one of the options and that gets written into his profile in the database.
I will try your suggestion and let you know what I learn.

Hi Clarence,
You just have to use the multi language span html tag. Here's what I use. Just copy/paste and change the text (help/aide).
<span class="multilang" lang="en">help</span><span class="multilang" lang="fr">Aide</span>
