Deault values in t function do not work

🐛 Bug Report

Default values in t function do not work

To Reproduce

              t("key1", {count: 0,
			defaultValue_zero: "no item",
			defaultValue_one: "one item",
			defaultValue_other: "{{count}} items",
		})
renders: one item

Expected behavior

It renders "one item" whereas I would have expected zero.
If I put this in a traduction file it works but I want my code to be the source of thruth.

Your Environment

• runtime version: browser
• i18next version: 23.7.18
• os: Windows
• any other relevant information

should be fixed with i18next v23.7.19

Thanks. It works if saveMissing: false

But in this sandbox example as soon as I activate saveMissing:true, the displays goes to "one item def" instead of "no item def".

And the POST requests are {key12_one: "one item def"}, {key12_other: "{{count}} items def"} and {key12_many: "no item def"} whereas I would have expected key12_zero instead of key12_many

That's because of the fallbackLng it defaults to dev....
We've just released v23.7.20 that should address this.

Thank you for your quick response

There is still one problem, in this sandox example {key_many: "no item def"} is sent in POST whereas it is not defined in the default value. Moreover it takes the value of key_zero, which makes no sense.

For your information, if we change the order of the ressource from

    translation: {
      key_one: "{{count}} item",
      key_other: "{{count}} items",
      key_zero: "no item",
    },

to

    translation: {
      key_zero: "no item",
      key_one: "{{count}} item",
      key_other: "{{count}} items",
    },

the problem does not happen.

Thanks !

currently afk... but I guess that's because of the used language...
_zero is sent if there is also a defaultValue_zero provided

[adrai]

i'm not able to reproduce your issue...

[Toto5931]

The issue is reproduced in the sandbox link I gave. Try refreshing several times since the network exchanges are not always displayed (I don't know why)
See the capture below. "_many" is sent in POST whereas it is not defined as default. And its value is the one of "_zero" so it is dangerous.

Thanks !

It's not because of the refresh... it's because of the detected language... that's why I'm not able to reproduce it... for me it detects english... for you probably french...
if I add ?lng=fr in the url, I can also see the key_many... but this is correct for french... this occurs, because you set the fallbackLng to false...
try to set it to en => fallbackLng: 'en',

[Toto5931]

What is the link between the fallbackLng and the fact that it sends _many whereas it does not exist?
I need to keep fallbackLng to false since I do not want that he loads 2 language files when 1 language is enough

The reason is the saveMissingTo option: https://www.i18next.com/overview/configuration-options
