Views: changing the language for taxonomy terms

Question

Is there a way to display taxonomy terms in a language given by a Views argument, i.e. to override the user's language preference? The field formatter "Plain text (localized)" doesn't do the trick.

Example:

Tab one: English

• Africa
  • Story 1
  • Story 2
• Middle East
• Europe

Tab two: Français

• Afrique
  
  • Histoire 1
• Moyen-Orient
  
  • Histoire 2
• Europe

The stories are a single content type, but completely different pieces of content (not translations). I'm using quicktabs to render this.

Edit: the taxonomy terms are already translated via the i18n module, the question is about getting Views to display the translation I want.

Answer 1

By default views doesn't allow to filter the taxonomy terms by the language, only with nodes.

But, you can use the Internationalization Views:

http://drupal.org/project/i18nviews

After you enable the module go to relationships and add "Content: Taxonomy terms on node" Then you can find " Taxonomy term: Language " under filters. This should do the trick.

Good luck.

Answer 2

You can translate taxonomy terms with the Internationalization module.
