Hello
With a specific module, I modified the invitation email template for the calendar module. In an xml file in the Data directory, I put :

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<odoo>
<data noupdate="0">
<record id="calendar.calendar_template_meeting_invitation" model="mail.template">
<field name="name">Calendar: Meeting Invitation</field>
<field name="model_id" ref="calendar.model_calendar_attendee"/>
    [...]
<field name="body_html" type="html">
[text in english]

However, I do not know how to modify the translations of this mail template. If I generate a translation file (po) on my specific module, I cannot find my modified template since it is declared on the calendar module. How can I modify the translations of this mail template from my specific module ?
Thank you

  • You need to ADD your Translated String into the MSGSTR Section in the respective language PO file of your custom module. Example:- 

    #. module: calendar
    #: model:mail.template,
    subject:calendar.calendar_template_meeting_reminder
    msgid "${object.event_id.name} - Reminder"
    msgstr "${object.event_id.name} - Rappel"

    you can take a reference from ODOO any Standard Module, above reference from Calendar module.
