But, I translated it using block translation

swentel CreditAttribution: swentel at eps & kaas for Dropsolid commentedMmm, using $this->t() seems weird. How does core translate this?

swentel CreditAttribution: swentel at eps & kaas commentedWe should change type_label to 'label' so config translation can kick in.

swentel CreditAttribution: swentel at eps & kaas commentedGetting close with this patch. To fix:
- Adding translation acts a bit weird, it overwrites the original initially as well (but does save the translated label)
- getting to use the translated version of the title in the frontend
- clear cache when adding/deleting ds field (to trigger ds_config_translation_info_alter()).
(this would have probably been easier and more logic if our fields were config entities, but oh well)

swentel CreditAttribution: swentel at eps & kaas commentedSo ironically, if you use the title from the field itself, you can translate via the translate ui - cf DynamicField class. Completely missed that.
Adding t() around the title when it comes from a block or views is not my favorite option here, so simply closing.
