Widget UI strings

Overrides widget UI strings (input placeholder, header buttons, carousel). Scenario texts and the title / subtitle fields in kw('init') are not part of this object.

Launch fields: Widget settings parameters.

How to pass them

Shape: language → group → key. Pass only what you change: the widget merges the object into the built-in dictionary.

Built-in languages: uk, en, ru, de, vn. Any other code (for example pl) creates a new locale based on Ukrainian.

kw('init', {
  bot_id: 1,
  language_code: "en",
  custom_lang_translations: {
    en: {
      common: {
        write_a_message: "Type a message…"
      },
      header: {
        privacy_agree: "I agree"
      }
    },
    uk: {
      common: {
        write_a_message: "Напишіть нам…"
      }
    }
  }
});

In header.privacy_policy_text keep {url}privacy_policy_url is inserted there. In carousel.goToSlide keep {slide} and {total}.

Locale dictionaries are not identical: uk has no common.frame_title and no language_settings group; de and vn have no header.expand / header.minimize. An override still works if you pass the key.

In the dictionary, almost never on screen

The widget does not show these strings on screen. You can still override them.

Key Default (en)
app.access_denied Access denied
header.logout Logout
common.close Close
common.save Save
common.success Success
common.error Error
common.error_permitions permissions error
common.error_delete removal
common.error_update updating
common.error_save preservations
common.error_get receiving

common.frame_subtitle_number Number
common.frame_subtitle_status Status
common.frame_subtitle_open Open
errors.connect Connection error
rules.required Required field
rules.not_empty The field must not be empty
rules.phone The phone field must be in the format +380XXXXXXXXX
rules.email Please enter a valid email
login.authorization Authorization
login.email_field Email
login.password_field Password
login.login_button Entry
login.auth_error Authorisation error
language_settings.choose_lang Choose language:
language_settings.ru Russian
language_settings.en English
language_settings.de Deutsch

common.frame_title and language_settings.* are not in the uk dictionary. language_settings.de is only in the de dictionary.

The widget dictionary does not include modules.op.access_denied, modules.op.lack_rights, or modules.op.texts.without_subject. An override via custom_lang_translations can still work; this is not a public string set.
