Create custom multilang footer

by N Gripy - Wednesday, June 20, 2018, 5:19 PM

Hello,

i want to create a cutsom multilanguage footer with a short note and a support Email in.
How do I do that the best way using the WebGUI?

I know the additional html section. Plain Text/Html I paste there works like a charm. But if I use multilang tags

it simply displays both strings.

How can I add this the simplest way?

Are you sure the multi-language filter has been enabled?

Not only multilang filter has to be enabled but you need to explicitly run your multilang-formatted text through the function that does the magic of picking up the correct subtext.

How can I do that via the frontend GUI?

The filter is enabled.

From the filters documentation:

filter will be called to transform every bit of text output using format_text(), and possibly also format_string()

So the text should be processed by these functions (https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Output_functions)
