activerecord.errors.template.header is ignored (Validation error message header not translated) about rails-i18n HOT 5 CLOSED

@kuroda I agree with @jrochkind, dynamic_form gem does not work for me.
Instead, this worked for me:
<%= t('errors.template.header', :model => Model.model_name.human, :count => model.errors.count) %>

Thanks for looking at it!

Hi, Alexey

Look at the app/views/users/_form.html.erb generated by scaffold. The error message is hard coded. So, changing the locale file has no effect.

Actually, the Rails 3.0 does not utilize the activerecord.errors.template.header translation. In the Rails 2.x, this translation is used in the error_messages method of the form builder, but this method is deprecated and extracted as a plugin.

If you are curious, do the following:

• rails plugin install git://github.com/joelmoss/dynamic_form.git
• Edit app/views/_form.html.erb as follows:

<%= form_for(@user) do |f| %>
  <%= f.error_messages %>

  <div class="field">
    <%= f.label :name %><br />
    <%= f.text_field :name %>
  </div>
  <div class="actions">
    <%= f.submit %>
  </div>
<% end %>

from rails-i18n.

Thank you, i have overlooked this.

finding this way later, scaffold still generates hard-coded error text, but f.error_messages doesn't seem to exist anymore as a method on the form builder.

The i18n data is still in the repo.... not sure how to use it!
