I have created a custom language file for a feature that I have built into our Magento website. The language variables work fine on my local machine (of course), however on our staging environment it doesn't. My local machine is Windows and staging server is Linux, so obvious answer would be an issue with filename casing, but imho these are right.
I have my own block that overwrites the Mage_Catalog, called Feno_Catalog which works fine. To that config.xml file I've appended some code to load the Feno_Catalog.csv;
/local/Feno/Catalog/etc/config.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<config>
<modules>
<Feno_Catalog>
<version>0.1.0</version>
</Feno_Catalog>
</modules>
<global>
<blocks>
<catalog>
<rewrite>
<class>Feno_Catalog_Block</class>
</rewrite>
</catalog>
</blocks>
<helpers>
<catalog>
<rewrite>
<class>Feno_Catalog_Helper</class>
</rewrite>
</catalog>
</helpers>
</global>
<frontend>
<translate>
<modules>
<Feno_Catalog>
<files>
<default>Feno_Catalog.csv</default>
</files>
</Feno_Catalog>
</modules>
</translate>
</frontend>
<adminhtml>
<translate>
<modules>
<Feno_Catalog>
<files>
<default>Feno_Catalog.csv</default>
</files>
</Feno_Catalog>
</modules>
</translate>
</adminhtml>
</config>
The CSV file has been put into 2 folders: /app/locale/[de_DE|en_US]/ with matching casing.
As I mentioned it works fine on my local machine, but not on the staging server. What could cause this? I've searched for quite a bit and cleared cache (although cache is turned off), switched languages (both languages don't work - The language keys are like "poll_question_a1").
When I move the translations to Mage_Catalog.csv everything also works fine (but of course that is not what I want).
So how to fix? Is there any way to find the cause of this?
Perhaps since you're rewriting the catalog module, you need your translates to look like this:
<translate>
<modules>
<Mage_Catalog>
<files>
<feno>Feno_Catalog.csv</feno> <!-- name it something other than default, to avoid conflict with Mage_Catalog -->
</files>
</Mage_Catalog>
</modules>
</translate>
Also, you can try looking in app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/Translate.php around line 131-134. That is where it is loading your module translations. Try doing some Mage::log() calls in and around there to see if your CSV files are actually getting loaded.

Sorry for my english.
Just a question. In my magento, when i refresh statistics in Reports / Resfresh statistics, it's okay but it redirects me on the homepage of my website.
I solved this problem by changing two lines code in app/code/core/Mage/adminhtml/controllers/Report/StatisticsController.php.
But it's better to create "an override".
So i decided to create a module in app/code/local/myname/.
I have my file in app/etc/modules myname_all.xml wich contains :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
<MyName_AdminExtras>
<active>true</active>
<codePool>local</codePool>
</MyName_AdminExtras>
Next, I create app/code/local/Myname/AdminExtras/Adminhtml/etc/config.xml which contains
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
<MyName_AdminExtras>
<version>0.1.0</version>
</MyName_AdminExtras>
</modules>
<admin>
<routers>
<adminhtml>
<args>
<modules>
<MyName_AdminExtras before="Mage_Adminhtml">MyName_AdminExtras_Adminhtml</MyName_AdminExtras>
</modules>
</args>
</adminhtml>
</routers>
</admin>
And finally, i created a folder named controllers which contains another folder named Report and the file named StatisticsController.php which is calling the base file /app/code/core/Mage/Adminhtml/controllers/Report/StatisticController.php
But it doesn't word. File is not calling by Magento.
What's wrong ?
Hum sorry i found the answer. My folders weren't ok.
I just follow this way :
App/code/local/MyName/AdminExtras/controllers/adminhtml..
instead of
App/code/local/MyName/AdminExtras/Adminhtml/controllers
I'm trying to extend the magento class Mage_Cms_Block_Block. I've got my module active. I think the reason why its failing is to do with the config.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<config>
<modules>
<VisibleBlocks_ShowBlocks>
<!-- The version of our module, starting at 0.0.1 -->
<version>0.0.1</version>
</VisibleBlocks_ShowBlocks>
</modules>
<global>
<blocks>
<mage_cms>
<rewrite>
<cms_blocks>VisibleBlocks_ShowBlocks_Block_Border</cms_blocks>
</rewrite>
</mage_cms>
</blocks>
</global>
</config>
Can someone explain to me what the tags inside the global tags mean? Can the tags inside rewrite be called anything?
OK seems that asking the questions made it clearer to me. Hope this hasn't a waste of time for anyone. 'mage_cms' should be 'cms' as that is the module i'm extending and 'cms_blocks' should be 'block'.
i have explain the details,please check
<global>
<blocks>
<cms><!--module name of rewrite class mage_cms -->
<rewrite>
<!-- file path of Block of app/code/core/mage/cms/block.php -->
<blocks>VisibleBlocks_ShowBlocks_Block_Border</blocks>
</rewrite>
</cms>
</blocks>
</global>
<config>
<global>
<blocks>
<cms>
<rewrite>
<block>VisibleBlocks_ShowBlocks_Block_Cms_Block</block>
</rewrite>
</cms>
</blocks>
</global>
</config>
With these tags, we say we will configure a block of Magento’s core called cms and we will rewrite () the « block » block of this module
Also make sure your module is active & being displayed in system/config/Advanced
I would like to introduce my own entities into particular Magento module namespaces for example I might want to be able to call
Mage::getModel('catalog/brand')->load(1);
Brand is not currently a model included in the catalog module. I don't want to modify core files nor do I want to hack the core by just adding a Mage folder to the local directory.
I was thinking perhaps syntax inside of my namespaces config file similar to this:
<models>
<catalog>
<args>
<modules>
<AJW_Catalog before="Mage_Catalog">AJW_Catalog</AJW_Catalog>
</modules>
</args>
</catalog>
<ajw_catalog>
<class>AJW_Catalog_Model</class>
</ajw_catalog>
</models>
but it does not seem to work.
Does anyone know how this can be accomplished?
Maybe possible with some trickery, but not officially supported, and generally a bad idea. The before= syntax you've used only works for the routers node. There's no framework code to let you do what you're trying to do. Also, there's a strong bias in the Magento framework code towards individual modules "owning" their namespace/package name. Defining new models in an existing namespace (catalog) introduces the theoretical possibility that your code may conflicts with a future version of Magento's code.
This may be a possible fix (brain fart)
Create a module named Customnamespace_Catalog and then just rewrite the catalog module with a node that doesnt exist in the default mage module:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
<Namespace_Catalog>
<version>0.1.0</version>
</Namespace_Catalog>
</modules>
<global>
<models>
<catalog>
<rewrite>
<brand>Namespace_Brand_Model_Brand</brand>
</rewrite>
</catalog>
</models>
</global>
</config>
Followed by an additional module:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
<Namespace_Brand>
<version>0.1.0</version>
</Namespace_Brand>
</modules>
<global>
<models>
<brand>
<class>Namespace_Brand_Model</class>
</brand>
</models>
</global>
</config>
This will allow you to call Mage::getModel('catalog/brand')
echo get_class(Mage::getModel('catalog/brand'); // Namespace_Brand_Model_Brand
I'm try to overriding Mage_Core_Block_Messages
I'm create module
Mycompany_Core.xml and save in path app/etc/modules/Mycompany_Core.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
<Mycompany_Core>
<active>true</active>
<codepool>local</codepool>
</Mycompany_Core>
</modules>
</config>
next I was create in app/code/local/Mycompany/Core/Block/Messages.php
class Mycompany_Core_Block_Messages extends Mage_Core_Block_Messages
{
//update method
}
and add config.xml in app/code/local/Mycompany/Core/etc/config.xml
<config>
<modules>
<Mycompany_Core>
<version>0.0.1</version>
</Mycompany_Core>
</modules>
<global>
<blocks>
<core>
<rewrite>
<messages>Softdk_Core_Block_Messages</messages>
</rewrite>
</core>
</blocks>
</global>
</config>
But i don't see any result on frontend, I'm wonder where I'm make mistake.
Thx for help.
There are two things that caught my eye.
1.) In your module's registration file, it should be codePool and not codepool (as also said by David in comments)
2.) What is Softdk? If that is the name of your new module, then replace Mycompany with Softdk everywhere in your module.
Clear cache and voila!
I created a custom menu in admin tab in magento admin. It was working perfectly on localhost, but when i deployed my code on the server, it is giving a 404 page not found error. What can be the issue there!

Your server may be running on Linux which is case sensitive so you need to check that you module file and folder should be according Magento standard like controller should be IndexController not indexController etc.
and your localhost running on window which is not case sensitive.
Normally this is when you are logged in. Logout and login again. Then it should work.
Assuming that cache is turn off / cleared
1) Logout and log back in again
If you still getting a 404 error
2) Check your server error log, you maybe missing your module helper file
Login In/Out,clear cache, should be the solution.But you can try below points (though it may find foolish).
1) Check your xml contents.(line by line with your localhost xml)
2) Spellings matter (hope <sintax> spelling is correct is your xml )
3) Remove unwanted space (like before <global> tag) and comments.
4) Opening & closing of tags.
5) Proper Indentation (this will help to find your flaw if it is there)
6) Atlast directly copy the same localhost xml file in your server.
I really wish this will help you to find the bug.
