Paginator Elements Are Not Translated to the Site's Language

Issue

• When using a paginator component on a site, the links to the different pages (e.g., "Page 1", "Page 2") are displayed in English.
• These labels do not get translated even when the site's language is set to a different language, such as Spanish.

Environment

• Liferay DXP 7.4
• 2023.Q4+

Resolution

This is the expected behavior. By design, the language key for the paginator, page-x, must be translated manually. There are two methods to add the required translations:

1. Language Override Tool (Recommended)
   • This tool is available in Liferay DXP 7.4 U4+ and is the recommended approach.
   • Navigate to the Control Panel → Configuration → Language Overrides.
   • Add a new override for the key page-x for each language you need. For example, for Spanish, the value would be Página {0}.
2. Resource Bundle Module (Alternative)
   • You can create a custom module that provides a resource bundle to override the global language properties.
   • This method is useful for automating the deployment of translations across different environments, as the translations will be included in the deployed module.
