Question

Provider created a custom menu with their own 'Caption localization key'. Is there a way to localize the custom menu?

Answer

Provider should create a new xml file, name it for example custom_menu.xml and populate it with below example data:

--------------------------------
<locale code="en_US">
    <section>
        <name>Common-PatternBundle.properties</name>
        <data>
            <entry>
                <keyword>ADDONS</keyword>
                <phrase>Addon Title</phrase>
            </entry>
            <entry>
                <keyword>ADDONS.DESCRIPTION</keyword>
                <phrase>Addon Description</phrase>
            </entry>
            <entry>
                <keyword>ADDONS.BASEKIT</keyword>
                <phrase>Addon Basekit</phrase>
            </entry>
            <entry>
                <keyword>ADDONS.BASEKIT.DESCRIPTION</keyword>
                <phrase>Addon Basekit Description</phrase>
            </entry>
            <entry>
                <keyword>ADDONS.VYPRVPN</keyword>
                <phrase>Addon VYPRVPN</phrase>
            </entry>
            <entry>
                <keyword>ADDONS.VYPRVPN.DESCRIPTION</keyword>
                <phrase>Addon VYPRVPN Description</phrase>
            </entry>
        </data>
    </section>

remember to use already configured Caption localization key in custom menu for the keyword lines

After that, the file should be uploaded to Customized Locale Files in POA.
