Languages & Translations

#Translations

Every line the plugin can print lives in one file:

PhoenixCurrencies/translations/translations.en.yml

Messages to players, command replies, the transaction log, the banknote item, the Discord posts and the whole in-game editor are all in there. Edit it and run /pcur reload to apply the new text. The wallet and the balance history are in their own menu files.

#Translating the plugin

Everything sits under en at the top of the file. Translate the right-hand side and leave the keys and the placeholders alone. Anything wrapped in % is filled in by the plugin, so %amount%, %player% and %currency% have to survive the translation to keep working.

en:
  pay:
    sent: "%prefix%&aYou sent &f%amount% &ato &e%player%&a. You have &f%balance% &aleft."

#The Prefix

%prefix% at the start of a message is replaced with the plugin-prefix line, so the prefix of every message is changed in one place. Remove %prefix% from a message to send that one without it.

#Short Amounts

format.compact-suffixes lists the endings of short amounts, from thousands up: k, M, B, T and Q by default. The same endings are accepted when players type an amount, so translating them changes both.

#Reasons

The reasons section names each kind of change, such as Payment or Admin Give, as shown in the transaction log and the Discord posts.

#Updating the plugin

New keys reach your file on their own, with their English default. Keys you already have are never touched, so a message whose default wording changed in an update keeps your old text.
