MLP - The Multi-Lingual Publishing Pack

About adding new languages again: where could be found a list of those 5 characters lang codes which should be entered on MLP setup page? Some of those seems to be quite obvious, others are not so simple (da-dk) for example. I would have thought just dk-dk. Other, maybe a silly question, should other users be logged out when adding new langs?

There is a list of available languages in Txp here.

Thanks Els, haven’t seen that list before.

Hi everyone,

I need a quick idea, why MLP isn’t working on the client’s host, where I moved the site from my own ‘sandbox’ host.
I have Txp 4.0.7 and MLP 0.9.11.

In the ‘sandbox’ everything works fine with clean URLs, but after moving neither clean nor messy URLs work, I just get a 404 because of the language prefix, e.g. “directory /ru wasn’t found on this server.”

And the client’s host fails the clean URL test.

There are also some PHP errors, here is what diagnostics says:

The following PHP functions (which may be necessary to run Textpattern) are disabled on your server: proc_close, show_source, symlink

Are any of these functions relevant to MLP?

Is it possible to get MLP to play nicely with wet_haystack?

At the moment I am getting the following errors:

Tag error:  <txp:article section="weblog" searchsticky="1"> ->  Textpattern Warning: Can't find FULLTEXT index matching the column list

A couple of quick checks (wild guesses):

did you upload all MLP files (especially did you replace txplib_db.php)?
did you upload .htaccess?
do clean URLs work at all (if you disable MLP)?
if you run the uninstall wizard, and then the install wizard again, does that help?

If none of these provide a clue, how exactly did you do the move?

Si · 2009-01-26 22:28:23

Hi Els,
I moved the whole site structure including txplib_db and .htaccess and uploaded the database as I normally do. The clean URLs don’t work at all on the new host (but they do on my own host) so I have a strong feeling that this is the problem. I also tried running wizards and even uninstalling MLP completely and re-installing it, but no luck. And I realised :) that it was installed in a subdirectory on my host and was working perfectly btw.

Thanks for the tips, anyway!

If the host doesn’t have mod_rewrite (you can check in Diagnostics) I think MLP just won’t work…

Si · 2009-01-27 09:40:58

Problem solved, and it turned out that I did have a wrong .htaccess file with, thanks a lot for the clue, Els!

When using the MLP with zem_contact_reborn, how do I localise the zem_contact_lang-mlp plugin for multiple languages?

els · 2009-01-28 17:12:37

When you have installed the languages you want, you can import existing language strings from here, or enter the translations yourself (in the MLP > Plugins tab).

dl33 · 2009-01-31 00:58:33

Another one: Is it possible to show articles in standard language for particular article tags or sections? I am building a site that will be translated into three languages, except for the weblog, which should just list the English articles. If the user is viewing a language other than that a notice would show up at the top explaining why he should learn a foreign language;-)

Not sure if the exclude section bit in the mlp allows for something like that. The important bit is when the user browses back to a section that is translated that his language_settings are remembered.
