InertiaTranslations with Inertia and Laravel 1204
Nony
Hi @alex. I've been following your different inertia courses over the last bit and I have to say that I enjoy Inertia more than Livewire and Alpine. I've been a Codecourse follower for years and years since the early YouTube days, and your videos are some of the best out there when it comes to all things PHP :)
Anyways, to the point. In your translations with inertia course, you say that the code in lang.js covers about 80% of all usecases. well, one of the cases it doesn't seem to cover is translating validations and pagination links and some other translations.
At first I thought it was some weird caching issue, but now I'm not so sure. I have 4 languages, English, Norwegian, German and Spanish, and only the English version of validation and pagination translations are shown. That is no matter what language is set to default in config/app nor chosen in selectbox. I've tried php artisan optimize:clear and changing caching methods with no luck. I can even delete the validation.php file, or change it's contents, and it still will output the default english validation errors and such. In my contact form I get The name field is required. when english is selected, with all other languages I get validation.required in stead.
What am I missing? can you replicate the problem with your code? Every other translations I've made are working as expected.
Another problem is that I can't translate inside controllers. This might be a separate issue, and I don't know if it can be done with inertia at all. For example return redirect()->back()->with('success', __('contact.the message has been sent')); wont be translated when I flash the message on the frontend. Any suggestions here?
Best Regards

Hello @Nony,
If you are using custom keys for validation messages, you will need to override the defaults.

As for your other issue, are you sure that key exists?
