I’ve been wishing for a subfolder feature in Text Blaze for quite a while, but unfortunately, it still hasn’t arrived. Maybe someone here has another useful tip for me.
I mainly use Text Blaze for daily customer support, and I deal with five different languages. Right now, we either work with formtoggle or create own snippets with the language as a prefix in the title, but the list is starting to get a bit too long.
Hi, thanks for sharing your feedback with us.
We understand that subfolders can be very useful. There’s a community post for this feature request here: Nested folders for organisation, maybe you can upvote it and follow any future updates we post there about that feature.
In the meantime, your approaches look good to me. You might also want to check out this post: Can't remember your shortcuts? A few solutions, it shares some useful tips and tricks for better organizing your snippets.
To add to Abdalla's suggestion, since you have five languages, a formmenu with if-elseif conditions would be better:
{formmenu: English; Chinese; Spanish; Korean; name=language}
{if: language="English"}English translation goes here...
{elseif: language="Chinese"}Chinese translation goes here...
{elseif: language="Korean"}Korean translation goes here...
{elseif: language="Spanish"}Spanish translation goes here...{endif}
If the language can be inferred from metadata in the page, then the formmenu can be set automatically. For example: if the URL always contains /en for English conversations, or if the page contents always mention "Language: English" somewhere, then we can force the formmenu to automatically select that language. An example is given below:
{formmenu: English; Chinese; Spanish; Korean; name=language}
{run:
language="English" if contains({site: url; page=https://yourpage.test/*}, "English") else "Chinese"
}
