MLP - The Multi-Lingual Publishing Pack

You’re right, I can’t get it to work either when section_list is used as a container tag. This however works:

<txp:section_list default_title='<txp:text item="home" />' include_default="1" wraptag="ul" break="li" sections="about,activities,news,contact" active_class="selected" />

Or this:

<txp:section_list default_title='<txp:text item="home" />' include_default="1" wraptag="ul" break="" sections="about,activities,news,contact">
	<li<txp:if_section name='<txp:section />'> class="selected"</txp:if_section>><txp:section link="1" title="1" /></li>
</txp:section_list>

Hmm… bug?

Edit: apparently not a bug. I found a thread mentioning the same behaviour of category_list here.

Thanks for solving it.

This is by design, based on the idea that you totally want to create your own markup when you use either section_list or category_list as a container (or with a form attribute, for the sake of completeness).

Thanks for the clarification, Robert. I added it to the Textbook tag pages.

Strange comment display bug. I think this has something to do with MLP: Maybe someone could check if same happens to you too:

I have moderation on. When I open a comment to read it, and use the drop-down under comment to make it visible this happens: recent comments shows the article has been commented. But when looking the article itself, no new comments are visible.

If I instead mark the comment visible on the comments list (with checkboxes), it really comes visible.

I studied the article table for that particular language. When aproving comment from comment-read page, the comment count doesn’t increase. If I mark it visible in the list, the comment count column is updated.

4.08 with 0.9.11-gp

Anyone else noticing these issues with 4.2.0 I added here?

in content > categories: category titles are only displayed in the site’s primary language, no matter which other language is active on the admin side (primary language = the one that comes first in the ‘Languages’ field in MLP > Preferences)

in content > files: the category dropdown only shows the category titles in the primary language

Els, I am having exactly the same problems that you mentioned with Categories and Content. Also same problem with Section names. :(

Any chance the bugs will be fixed soon?

What exactly do you mean? Section names only exist in one language. And contrary to the category dropdowns that display the category titles, the section dropdown displays – and has always displayed – the section names (also in MLP-less installs).

I found another problem with section titles though. In Presentation > Sections: if the first section title field contains an ampersand (&), the title fields for all other languages disappear. It doesn’t happen when there is one in one of the other title fields, but not in the first one. And this happens in 0.9.11-gp/4.0.8 as well as in 0.9.12-gp/4.2.0.

Edit: doh! Already posted, already reported. I need a memory expansion…

Hi Els.

I am sorry if I was not clear enough. I have never worked with this plugin before.

Please see this screenshot for what I mean. Basically If i try to change “About” to its german or romanian equivalent and click save, it won’t let me. Am I supposed to be able to edit this? Can it be done another way?

Thanks.

Hi vandamar,

You should be able to edit all those fields.
The section name exists only in one language, it’s part of the URL, for example site.com/en/about/, site.com/de/about/ etcetera. If you change the section name, the URL of that section page will change.
You can have a translation of the section title for each language, so for example the headings on your section page (<txp:section title="1" />) or your navigation (<txp:section_list /> or <txp:section title="1" link="1" />) will be localised. So section ‘about’ could have title ‘About me’ in English and translations in other languages.

You said ‘it won’t let me’. What exactly happens when you click ‘save’? Are there any errors or messages displayed?

Hi Els.

First, Thanks for all your help and clarifications.

I type in new Section Titles for say German, from About to Über
I press save
Textpattern says Section “About” Updated, but when you look over it says About again

I also made a tiny video of my problem (http://www.vandamar.com/MLP_SectionTitle.m4v).

vandamar, that’s very strange, I’ve never seen that happen before. I’m not sure it’s an MLP thing, so to be sure you’d have to run the MLP Pack Cleanup wizard to un-install MLP (if you don’t check the checkboxes you can simply run the setup wizard again afterwards to re-install it), and try if you can edit the section titles then.
