Update ALPS Theme setting design for supporting footer localizatinon

[YauheniKapliarchuk]

Hi,

in this ticket I did some investigation this issue.
After call with @designerbrent we decided to do:

• update design our ALPS Theme Settings (add new tabs for supported languages);
• provide new fields of these changes to backend side and adaptive it for supported languages.

First part - prepare some template for team for confirmation approach.

Thanks,
Best Regards!

Hi Team,

I am prepared a mockup for this functionality.
I was wondering if you check it and give your feedback

Thanks,
Best Regards!

Let's not do a "translate" tab. Instead, put the translatable languages underneath the header for the tab, for example "english, german, spanish, etc" would go underneath the line "Theme Color Options Grid" on the "Global" tab.

Hi @johnrbeckett for your comment

I did another one mockup

[designerbrent]

• The language buttons should look like tabs, and then show the content of the tab underneath.
• Do you plan to move all the fields that have text in them to one place or will you put the language buttons under each tab and around each translatable field?

Hi @designerbrent
here presents 2 approaches. Second was chosen by John and Hans

Would do you prefer?

Thanks,
Best Regards!

I guess my questions still stand as I’m a little confused by both interfaces. @YauheniKapliarchuk

Hi @designerbrent

Let me try to explain

At the moment, there are 2 options for how we can arrange the management of the translation of fields for several languages.

1. Make a separate tab ("Translate") and move all the necessary translated fields into this tab.
2. Second way is to place the tabs languages ("En", "Es", "De") above each field/group fields that will be translatable.

The last thing we decided was to put the language buttons under each tab and around each translatable field.

I hope I answered your question...

If anything, we will have a weekly meeting tomorrow, let's brainstorm this task together?

Thanks,
Best Regards!

Hi All, We're going to go with the second mockup with the blue buttons under each tab where translation options are available.

[designerbrent]

I think that makes sense. Overall, I prefer the idea of that to the first option of having a different tab for translatable things. Will there be a bar of language buttons on each field that can be translated or just one per tab?
