I've found that Rails allows for generic i18n of submit buttons via the following in config/locales/en.yml
:
en:
helpers:
submit:
create: "Create %{model}"
submit: "Save %{model}"
update: "Update %{model}"
However, I'm looking to update the create
value only for one specific model. I'd like the text to read as "Upload %{model}" or just "Upload". How can I make this change for just one model (e.g.: a Photo
model)?
Those labels can be customized using I18n under the +helpers.submit+ key
and using %{model} for translation interpolation:
en:
helpers:
submit:
create: "Create a %{model}"
update: "Confirm changes to %{model}"
It also searches for a key specific to the given object:
en:
helpers:
submit:
post:
create: "Add %{model}"
Source @ actionview/lib/action_view/helpers/form_helper.rb
If you use the i18n-debug gem, the rails server will print translations look-up attempts to the console, like:
[i18n-debug] en.helpers.submit.post.create => nil
