[Solved] Footer: "Items 1-22"

[Julien]

Hi, 

I'm using the grid for one of my project.

I just have one question about customizing the footer pager:

Actually, it displays "Afficher les items 1 - 22 de 22"(french website)

but: 

1. Item doesn't mean anything in french, the most approching word for it should be something like "Affichage des éléments 1 - 22 de 22"
2. I'm displaying business data, is there a way to have something else instead of this "items", something like "Persons, cars, ..."

My customer are asking me to change this, and I cannot find how without implementing myself a datapager.

Hello Julien,

Basically the localization files shipped with the MVC extensions are provided by our community. You can change the localization file for your country the way you want. In your case you could find the localiztion file used for the Grid called GridLocalization.fr-FR.resx under the App_GlobalResources folder inside your project.
Then you could change the DisplayingItems message to the desired one.
I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

My biggest problem isn't the traduction, my biggest problem is that I need to have differents text here for all grids, once it will be "Persons", once "cars", ...

Hi again Julien,

Then you can use the OnDataBound event to update the message the way you prefer.
e.g.

function onDataBound(e)
{
    var message= $(this).find('t-status-text').text();
    message = message.replace('items','cars');
     $(this).find('.t-status-text').text(message );
}
