Question

I’m a newcomer to Drupal.

I have a Drupal installation with i18n module.

Everything works perfectly however I faced one issue.

I created custom content type and a view to display it. Now I have a quesiton… Is there any possibility to translate view path/title?

Regards,
DaveW

Well known issue for all people starting their adventure with Drupal.

How to solve the problem? It’s very, very simple. I presume you have your languages created and enabled – I’ll use English as default language.

1. Create your view with requested title and path. I always use English language as the first language, ie. news.
2. Go to Administration » Configuration » Search and metadata » URL aliases and create new alias by clicking Add new alias link (if this module is disable you need to enable it).
3. From dropdown menu, select your second (or third etc.) language, in my case Polish.
4. In Existing system path field provide the English path of the view you created: in our case it’s news.
5. In Path alias field provide your translation, ie. wiadomosci for Polish language.

Voila. Now, when Polish is the current language, it will use an alias wiadomosci for news path.

Note: Just tested on fresh latest Drupal installation – works perfectly.
