RSS feed and multilingual

[randulo]

This is kind of a note to people writing plugins and for the core function,s as well. It woulmd be a nice touch if you could take multilingual sites in consideration.

For example, the RSS plugin (at least the version I have) will always list the titles in th default language. Maybe this has beed addressed in a later version?

No, you are right, this has not been addressed yet. The RSS plugin doesn't take multilangual settings into account and only propagates the default content.

A hook can be used to set a different langauge though, then you'd need to pass the language as a parameter to the feed. That all needs coding, of course.

But of course, I'd really like to see that as well.

Hi Garvin,

I know there may not be a lot of multilingual usres out there, but it would be useful for everyone to know that it's great that the serendipity interface is available in many, many languages even if they only post in one language.

My first point though, is that all valid plugins should be language-aware. Actally I'm not using a plugin at all, I'm referring to firefox which detects RSS feeds and puts the icon in the status bar to make "dynamic bookmarks" which is a pretty cool idea.
