Translations

At the moment, English, German, French, Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, Turkish among other translations are available out of the box. Just specify the locale configuration option in config/app.php file of your Laravel project. If you need to modify the texts or add support for other languages, you can publish the language files with the next command:

php artisan adminlte:install --only=translations

Now, you are able to edit translations or add new languages in the resources/lang/vendor/adminlte folder.

Menu Translations

The menu translations are enabled by default and allows you to use lang files for menu items translation.

Configure Menu Item for Translation

You need to configure the menu items to support translations. For this, you need to add translation keys to the text, header or label attributes. Currently, these are the only menu attributes supported for translations.

Translation strings with parameters are supported using an array on the menu attribute, where the first value is the translation key and the second value is an array with the translation parameters. At next, we show an example of the menu configuration for both cases:

[
    // Example using a translation key.
    'header' => 'account_settings_trans_key',
],
[
    // Example using translation key with parameters.
    'text' => ['profile_trans_key', ['name' => 'User']],
    'url'  => 'admin/settings',
    'icon' => 'user',
],

Lang Files

All the translation strings keys configured on the menu items must be added in the menu.php file of each locale needed. You need to declare a key for each one of the menu items you want to translate. The translations files are located at the resources/lang/vendor/adminlte/ folder. At next, we show an example of the resources/lang/vendor/adminlte/en/menu.php language file for the previous sample of configuration:

return [
    'account_settings_trans_key'  => 'ACCOUNT SETTINGS',
    'profile_trans_key'           => ':name Profile',
];
