Forum: Rails I18n i18n controller-view

hello, could you tell me why this doesn't work?

controller:

 flash[:success] = t('flash.added', :item => t('dictionary.challenge'))

en.yml

  dictionary:
    challenge: Challenge

  flash:
    added: {{item}} has been successfully created.

"Doesn't work" is too unspecific. State your Rails version, if you use
the built-in i18n or the gem (what version?) and how it doesn't work,
specifically. What do you see, what did you expect to see instead? Any
exception backtraces.

One thought off the top of my head is that perhaps you need to quote
the added value when it includes curly braces, but that's a wild
guess.

So try

flash:
  added: "{{item}} has been successfully created."
