LanguageLabels

Label naming conventions

Language Labels in TYPO3 start with LLL: and are used to get text snippets inside PHP/TS code, without hardcoding them. This enables translations to other languages. The texts are saved in XML files and eacht text snippet is identified by it's label there.

• label should have one prefix and one identifier, separated by a dot. E.g. page.deleteButton, page.deleteReally, page.deleteSuccessful

• all parts have to use studlyCaps

• select your prefix to group all labels of one functionality together

• do not use prefixes like "button", "headline" and so one, use "page.deleteButtonCancel" instead

• start your identifier with the subfunction prefixed, if applicable

• use one file per module, if your labels are specific to this module

• place your labels in EXT:lang/locallang_misc.php, if they are general and could be used in other places, too

• be explicit, e.g. use "delete" instead of "rm"
