wagtail-translation

wagtail-translation adds translation capabilities to Wagtail CMS by using django-modeltranslation. The aim is to have a very clean implementation of single-tree Wagtail translations. This project was inspired by wagtail-modeltranslation because it is unnecessarily messy and not very maintainable.

Installation

  1. Add wagtail_translation and modeltranslation to INSTALLED_APPS in your settings. wagtail_translation must appear before any apps with subclassed Page models in the list.

  2. Define languages used for translations (see modeltranslation docs).

  3. Define and register TranslationOptions classes for every Page model. If said models don't have any additional fields to be translated, they still have to be registered with empty TranslationOptions.

  4. Run ./manage.py migrate.

    TBD: additional actions to install in preexisting projects (which had migrations run before)

    TBD: additional actions when translation languages are changed after running wagtail-translation migration

  5. If you have custom managers on your Page submodels, make sure that such managers inherit from wagtail_translation.manager.MultilingualPageManager.
