i18n translation for N "rows selected"

nemcuon

Hi all,

Your provided list http://legacy.datatables.net/usage/i18n only lists the basic text and placeholders. However I want to have the placeholder for a plugin named "Select" that is demoed at https://datatables.net/extensions/select/examples/api/select.html.

Whenever the number of selected rows is changed, the text N "rows selected" at the footer is also updated. How can I have the placeholder of this "rows selected" ???

Thanks

I've found it

https://datatables.net/reference/option/language.select.rows

language: {
select: {
rows: "%d rows selected"
}
},

Hi,

Thanks for posting back. You are correct, language.select.rows is the way to do this.

Or if one wants to be more extensive

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#example').DataTable( {
        select: true,
        language: {
            select: {
                rows: {
                    _: "You have selected %d rows",
                    0: "Click a row to select it",
                    1: "Only 1 row selected"
                }
            }
        }
    } );
} );
