How can I get the user's locale. If possible, can I get it on the client side? If not, what is the user field?

@pitaj on the client side, there is a global variable config, there are some useful things there
config.userLang is what you asked for.

As for server-side, you'll want language, I believe, from inside the user set. This is what we use:

user.settings.language || meta.config.defaultLang || 'en_GB'

Thanks, I do understand how i18n works for plugins. I should have asked if there is a way to do this without having to fork or modify the existing plugin. It seems like the answer is no.

Personally, I think this is a lacking feature of NodeBB.

This is now on master. The data that is passed to the filter includes the topic, the uid of the current user and an empty tools array.

If you don't mind getting your hands dirty you can modify core and change PostTools.parse

I was thinking to extract the topic id from data.url and pass it back to the plugin backend to store, and then limit my plugin to one instance per topic for now. But I think that would be even worst, and when 0.6.0 arrives I would have to fix it anyways.

I am a bit scared to touch the core stuff, but I may give your suggestion a try since it is less hacky, and better long term solution.
