Pluralization and variable filling

Hi there! I am running into an issue when trying to supply a variable to be put into a localized translation string while also trying to pluralize form digestion. In this case I have:

{
"string-withname": "{name} did one thing",
"string-withname_plural": "{name} did many things"
}

{
"string-withname": "{name} did one thing",
"string-withname_plural": "{name} did many things"
}

Then I am referencing it like {{i18n "group.string-withname" name=name count=step.total_count}} Each time I digest multiple items, I still get the non-pluralized version. Does anyone see an issue with this? Curious if filling a variable and using count is not supported? Thanks!

Greater Than and Less Than Helper

Hi there 🙂 I'd like to include a certain text string if the step.count is greater than a specified count. This will be used when aggregating notifications so we list a preview of the first 5 and then include something expressing there are more items at the end. I imagine something like

{{#if (step.total_count > 5)}} 
GREATER THAN TEXT 
{{/if}}

{{#if (step.total_count > 5)}} 
GREATER THAN TEXT 
{{/if}}

or even a specific helper {{#gt step.total_count 5}} could work. It looks like this is not a supported case but I was curious if there was any plans to support this case. I saw a previous support post in 2022 where they implied a GitHub issue would be opened but no luck finding it. Thank you!

Localize Date Strings with {{dateformat}}

Hi again 🙂 As a part of my teams localization effort, we were hoping to be able to use the {{dateformat}} handlebar and pass in the subscriber locale to it in order to get the proper date format (ex MM/dd/yyyy vs dd/MM/yyyy in some countries). The docs help bot seemed to imply this was supported but looking at the handlerbar implementation, it seems locale information is not currently passed to date-fns. Is this accurate? Is there a way to accomplish what I am hoping? Thank you in advance!

Pluralization in the Translation Management Platform

Hi there! I am making use of the new translation management platform and was curious what the proper way to handle pluralization is. I see the existing pluralization logic: {{ pluralize count "stringForOne" "stringForMany" }} For the translation management provider, I've been able to use: {{ i18n "container.keyname" count=step.total_count }}

{
  "keyname": "{{count}} items"
}

{
  "keyname": "{{count}} items"
}

With the i18n provider, how do we make use of different keys based on how many items to use? Thank you in advance!
