Translates role name.
Description
Since the role names are in the database and not in the source there are dummy gettext calls to get them into the POT file and this function properly translates them back.
The before_last_bar() call is needed, because older installations keep the roles using the old context format: ‘Role name|User role’ and just skipping the content after the last bar is easier than fixing them in the DB. New installations won’t suffer from that problem.
Parameters
$name
stringrequired- The role name.
$domain
stringoptional- Text domain. Unique identifier for retrieving translated strings.
Default'default'
.Default:
'default'
Source
function translate_user_role( $name, $domain = 'default' ) {
return translate_with_gettext_context( before_last_bar( $name ), 'User role', $domain );
}
Always make sure that the first letter of
$name
is Capitalized!For example this will fail and return the original
$name
but this one will return the translation of
$name
