[TYPO3-english] Localized labels from a custom extension

[Markus Klein]

Hi Sergio!

Did you try overriding the whole xlf file?

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['locallangXMLOverride']['path/to/originalTranslationFile.xml'][] = 'path/to/otherTranslationFile.xml'

Maybe this helps. If I remember correctly, powermail has some special stuff going on with labels for validation in FE, but I can't remember by heart.

Kind regards
Markus
