composite C1 form Renderer localization

I have created a global data type, and use form renderer in a page to let user fill in the data and submit to website.

The default English is working fine. now when I try to support the second language I run into issues. According to the composite documentation:

1.Add your empty localization file at ~/Frontend/CompositeForms/Renderer/Localization/, for example: Composite.FormsRenderer.de-de.xml
2.Copy the contents of the default Composite.FormsRenderer.en-us.xml to your localization file.
3.Translate the strings.
4.In ~/App_Data/Composite/Composite.config, under the section locate Composite.Plugins.FormsRenderer's add section and register your localization file

but ~/Frontend/CompositeForms/Renderer/Localization does not exist, and neither does Composite.FormsRendereren-us.xml exists.

is the documentation outdated? does anyone had experience with localizing form renderer on user defined data type?

thanks

The documentation IS outdated at the moment (and will be updated soon - thanks for pointing it out).

Do it in the following way on 4.0 or later:

  1. Make a copy of ~/Composite/InstalledPackages/localization/Composite.Forms.Renderer.en-us.xml, changing the language/culture code from 'en-us' to your language's (e.g. Composite.Forms.Renderer.de-de.xml).
  2. Translate the strings.

No need to change anything in ~/App_Data/Composite/Composite.config any more.
