How translate "The :attribute"?

ash3T

I am not sure if I choose the right tag here. Or I shall do something through Github [pull request?]

This is the issue:
The username and email should also be translated. I can find this is related to thevalidation.unique string.

Does anyone know how to locate :attribute to translate "username" and "email"?

Custom attribute names can be passed in two ways. Either globally via the translation file, or directly to the validator instance when called.

For the first solution, this is the featured described in Laravel docs https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/validation#specifying-attribute-in-language-files It seems like Flarum sets the default values for those so you should be able to find them in Linguist https://github.com/flarum/core/blob/master/locale/validation.yml#L105

If the translations require more advanced context awareness, you could provide a specific message and/or attribute in the exact place it's returned but that would require forking Flarum itself.
