Bug #36088
closed
Setting descriptions are not translated
Description
Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2130871
Description of problem:
In the satellite settings, there are many entries stating Foreman instead of Satellite.
The entries sometimes state Satellite in the name column but in the description column, there is Foreman (sometimes there is just Foreman in a place where I think Satellite should be). I think that this should be consistent and we should use Satellite in settings entries.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
satellite-6.12.0-3.el8sat.noarch
foreman-3.3.0.8-1.el8sat.noarch
How reproducible:
every time
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to satellite settings and see entries from the list below. In these entries, I think we should change Foreman to Satellite.

I think this is a downstream issue which we should solve in the branding plugin (foreman_theme_satellite). That only lives downstream so I'm not sure anything needs to be done in upstream.
That said, this may be fallout from the settings DSL change and it's no longer possible to brand those. The entries used to be stored in the DB, so you could do a migration but that may no longer possible.

This is an upstream issue, as it's affecting translation.
Basically the description is not translated, which we can consider a bug.
Quoting Eric here:
This appears to be an issue with how the Description column is treated when rendering the Settings tables. The Description values are not passing through the translation layer which does the replacement of keywords for branding (e.g. Foreman -> Satellite). I believe this is because the Description is using the standard cellFormatter (https://github.com/theforeman/foreman/blob/develop/webpack/assets/javascripts/react_app/components/common/table/formatters/cellFormatter.js) as seen here (https://github.com/theforeman/foreman/blob/develop/webpack/assets/javascripts/react_app/components/SettingsTable/SettingsTableSchema.js#L33).
Somehow, either cellFormatter needs to change to call translate, i.e. {__(value)} which will apply to all uses of cellFormatter, or a custom formatter needs to be created specifically for the Settings table. As I am not as familiar with the overall ramifications of a change like this, I leave it up to whomever fixes this to decide the best course of action.

- Subject changed from Settings states Foreman instead of Satellite in some entries to Setting descriptions are not translated
- Category changed from Settings to Internationalization
- Triaged changed from No to Yes
Looking at the final patch, I'm changing the subject and category. That downstream (ab)uses the translations is a side effect, but untranslated descriptions affects all users.
