Wagtail modeltranslation

Simple app containing a mixin model that integrates modeltranslation (https://github.com/deschler/django-modeltranslation) into wagtail panels system.

Quick start

1. Make sure you have django-modeltranslation installed:

    pip install django-modeltranslation
   

2. Add "wagtail_modeltranslation" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
        ...
        'wagtail_modeltranslation',
        'modeltranslation',
        ...
    )
   

3. Use TranslationMixin in order to integrate django-modeltranslation with Wagtail admin. ** IMPORTANT: ** make sure that TranslationMixin is declared before Page class on model inheritance. Like following:

    from wagtail_modeltranslation.models import TranslationMixin
    class FooModel(TranslationMixin, Page):
        foo = models.CharField()
    FooModel.panels = [...]
   

4. Visit django-modeltranslation for documentation on how to implement translation fields: http://django-modeltranslation.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

5. In order to update pages url_path field use "set_translation_url_paths" instead of original "set_url_paths"

6. Use "change_lang" template tag to fetch translated urls based on translated slugs:

    {% load modeltranslation %}
    <li class="dropdown">
        <a data-toggle="dropdown" class="dropdown-toggle" data-hover="dropdown" href="#">{{ LANGUAGE_CODE }}<i class="fa fa-angle-down ml5"></i></a>
        <ul class="dropdown-menu" id="language-dropdown">
            {% for lang in languages %}
            {% if lang.0 != LANGUAGE_CODE %}
            <li tabindex="-1"><a href="{% change_lang lang.0 %}">{{ lang.1 }}</a></li>
            {% endif %}
            {% endfor %}
        </ul>
    </li>
