Multilingual forums display names

Hi,

I am using the Forums module in a bilingual site. The resx file successfully displays French text for the forum labels. However, I have not been able to localize the forum and group names. I have attempted to use macro expressions in the "group display name" textbox however it outputs the expression itself -->
{$=Community forums|fr-ca=Les Forums Communitie$}

How do you suggest I do this?

Thanks very much,
Yoav

RE:Multilingual forums display names

Hi Yoav,

We had a phone call but I will post it here for reference.

In this case the localization macros are not resolved in the forum settings. You may need to modify the layout files for the forums, for example this file:
\CMSModules\Forums\Controls\Layouts\Flat\Thread.ascx

Here you can see how the forum display name is obtained. So, here you may need to use the MacroResolver to resolve the macro value added into that field. I hope it makes sense and will help.

Best Regards,
Juraj Ondrus
