If a project:

and I am using simple_form like so (simplified):

simple_form_for @project do |f|
  f.input :project_name
  f.simple_fields_for :tasks do |j|
    j.input :task_name
  end
  f.submit
end

How would I internationalize the label for :task_name? I have tried quite a few combinations in my simple_form.it.yml file, such as:

it:
  simple_form:
    labels:
      project:
        project_name: 'Nome progetto'
        task:
          task_name:  'Nome compito'

Haven’t been able to find examples in the docs. Google points out a couple of apparently relevant closed issues:

But so far I am at loss…

THANKS!

As far as your form accepts many tasks you should pluralize task. It works in simple_form:

it:
  simple_form:
    labels:
      project:
        project_name: 'Nome progetto'
        tasks:
          task_name:  'Nome compito'
