Klarna -Finnish language

Hi @mrclayton

Is this part of the Klarna’s iFrame or is this part of the plugin? How does the plugin communicates with the iframe which language to show?

It might be that locale should be written as fi-FI instead of fi, like all countries’ locales are written as language-COUNTRY.

Thanks!

Hi @demian85,

That text is rendered in the iFrame. The language to display is communicated via the source object.

I forced the locale to fi-FI in a test and Klarna did not render the text in Finnish. This appears to be an issue with Klarna not using the correct locale. There isn’t anything I can do in the plugin as it already correctly uses the locale configured in WordPress.

Kind Regards,

@demian85 I performed another test with locale set to fi-FI and billing country to Finland and the correct language was rendered.

Make sure WordPress is using fi_FI instead of just FI. The Stripe plugin uses what WordPress gives it in the way of locale.

Yes, I was afraid this might be the problem that it is looking at the lang attribute, but wordpress puts for finland the lang attribute as fi. This is not something that can be changed, you just select the country (Suomi) in general settings, and that’s it. Of course you can override it in functions.php, but that’s not a real solution.

Comparison how WordPress adds Denmark and Finland the html lang tag:

@demian85 Why don’t you use the plugin’s available filters to change the locale?

Example:

add_filter('wc_stripe_output_display_items', function($data, $page, $payment_method){
    if($payment_method->id === 'stripe_klarna'){
        $data['source_args']['klarna']['locale'] = 'fi-FI';
    }
    return $data;
}, 10, 3);

That’s what I meant with a solution via a function(), but that doesn’t resolve the main problem; default WP locale is fi and doesn’t match Stripe’s one. I hope you will consider a solution for the long term.

Hi @mrclayton ,

With the custom function you suggested, there are problems in loading it on a Safari browser (tested on iPhone). It doesn’t open the iFrame.

What could be the cause, or a solution?

With thanks,

@demian85 that code would have nothing to do with the iFrame not loading in Safari. I don’t know why it’s not showing. It works fine for me when I test using an iPhone.

@mrclayton I have removed the custom code you provided, that’s why it seems nothing is wrong. I put it back now, so you can see. Please let me know if confirmed, so I can remove it.

@mrclayton did you check our site again, where I have re-added the function and do you see it doesn’t open the iFrame on a Safari (iPhone) browser?

@demian85 your checkout page won’t stop loading. There’s a loader over all of the payment methods that won’t clear.
