Topic: datatable column header language
Hi,
I have a page with multi-language. I use i18n and when I change the language of the page search, palceholder, inputs etc. all labels are changing in datatable and also in page except for column headers. I can't understand why can't I change column header names when I change language.
Thanks,

Hi Magdalena,
I did manage to change translation on column headers. You were right i18n can't reach nested objects so I did add langKey to column
{
label: this.$t("Block"),
field: "blockNo",
sort: "asc",
langKey: "Block"
},
and listened language selection change event then I manually changed column headers language by doing
changeLanguage(key) {
return this.$t(key.toString());
}
Maybe this will help if someone has issue with that.

I haven't been using i18n before so I'm not sure how it works exactly. I think the problem might be the following: changes in the rows are being watched and every time a change is made, the datatable component triggers reload. Columns are assumed to be more static. Inspect the Datatable in your Vue dev tools - check the
datafield in props and whether it contains translated values. If so, you can try forcing component to update (f.e withkey, there are several ways to do it). Let me know if that's the case. Kind regards, Magdalenaozgehan pro premium commented 6 years ago
Hi Magdalena, I inspected the data field but column names didn't translated by i18. but other properties of datatable such as searchbox,page names (Next,Previous) are changed. I also have noticed that page number combobox has " select an option label " which I can't find option to customize it .

If the data hasn't been changed in the component's data field, it's not an issue with lack of reactivity but i18 itself - and I don't think I can help you with that. Once the data is being translated and our component doesn't update those fields it is an issue with MDB. As for select an option - it's a mistake on our end, due to changes in the mdbSelect - it shouldn't be there, we will fix this issue in the upcoming release. Kind regards, Magdalena
