Hi
Sorry that I'm not so familiar with Smarty and I have got 2 silly questions:
1. How can I truncate a translated string like this:
{translate key=$directorDecisionOptions.$decisionOption}
while $directorDecisionOptions.$decisionOption returns sth like 'director.paper.decision.invitePresentation' and after translating, we have 'Invite Presentation'. Now, what I want is 'Invite Pre...".
I tried to use this but I got an error.
{{translate key=$directorDecisionOptions.$decisionOption}|truncate:10:"..."|escape}
2. Say I defined this in locale.xml:
<message key="director.paper.decision.invitePresentation.abbv">IP</message>
How can I concatenate the output of $directorDecisionOptions.$decisionOption and 'abbv' to form director.paper.decision.invitePresentation.abbv and use it with {translate key=xxx}?
I tried this but again, failed!
{assign var="decisionOptionKey" value=$directorDecisionOptions.$decisionOption}
{translate key=$decisionOptionKey."abbv"}
Thanks
Edith

Hi Edith,
For number 1, you should be able to do something like this: {translate|truncate:10 key=$directorDecisionOptions.$decisionOption}
For number 2, you might be able to do it backward:
{assign var="abbv" value="abbv"}
{translate key=$directorDecisionOptions.$decisionOption.$abbv}
Regards,
