Re: MLP - The Multi-Lingual Publishing Pack
Re: Corrupt file downloads…
Can anyone confirm that removing the BOM from l10n_base.php fixed the ‘corrupt file download’ problems?
Edit Scratch that, it’s not the BOM, it seems to be a stray linefeed getting into the output buffer.
Edit2 File download bug seems to be fixed on my local installation.

jakob
Thanks, nice to be posting to the forum again.
Can I ask what setups (OS+AMP versions) you are running currently and if you might be able to help out with some testing?

Re: MLP - The Multi-Lingual Publishing Pack
All
Here is a (very) partial list of bugs/odities and their current status on my 4.05 installation: Admin interface…- Totally blank content > write tab. — Fixed, pending further testing.
- “Missing ID” warnings in the content > renditions tab. — Fixed, pending further testing.
- Language switcher drop-down only showing default language. — Fixed, pending further testing.
- Missing translation textareas for plugin strings and snippets. — Fixed, pending further testing.
File uploads fail, jumps to content > write tab.— False report, working ok.- Missing translation fields for section titles (thanks beztak). — Fixed, pending further testing.
- Translated image alt/captions dropped (thanks beztak). — Fixed, pending further testing.
- Translated category titles dropped (thanks jstubbs). — Fixed, pending further testing.
- Byte Order Mark in output (thanks Els/Ruud). — Fixed
- File downloads corrupted. — Fixed(?) code released for public testing.
- Sub-directory installs not supported.
- Cannot sort using some localised fields.
- Please output images (specifically) flags for languages. — If you really want to do this, Marios describes how to do so here.
Other items of note (that don’t manifest on my installation)…
Installation issues- Installation blocks with error about missing MySQL privileges — Open, this will require some thinking + coding.
- Language table creation fails. — Open.
Anything major I’ve missed? If so, please post a very short description with a link back to the post in this thread that describes the issue in more detail. NB: Please don’t post about the fatal error on line 490 of l10n_admin.php, that one’s fixed locally already (it was causing the blank content > write tab.)
Thank you!

Re: MLP - The Multi-Lingual Publishing Pack
beztak
thank you for the reply. All seems well with my updated local install.
Just to confirm, please can you let me know if you are expecting to see something like this…
However, I haven’t tried reproducing this on a fresh (un-patched) MLP installation yet.
Will keep you posted.

Re: MLP - The Multi-Lingual Publishing Pack
Oh, that’s not all, I forgot about missing translation ALT and DESCRIPTION in image tab. When I upload image, there are only fields for default language. When I save it and again open than appear translation filed but when filled and saved translation disappear.
And maybe the same for file tab (not sure).

It’s strange how some distance from your previous work can give some clarity.
However, please note, the changes I’m making to my local copy are, as yet, untested on other OS-webserver-PHP-MySQL combinations. What’s working on my box might break something else (particularly PHP 4 installs). These will need to be tested and I’m sure folks will help out with that :O)
Blessed be thy name!
Rubbish. I’m human.

That’s right, the MLP Pack only allows you to enter translations when you have uploaded the image already (as you noted when you wrote)…
When I save it and again open than appear translation filed…
Spot on — nothing wrong yet.
…but when filled and saved translation disappear.
Ah, that’s not so good. I’ll need to check for this on a fresh install. Confirmed
It’s good to see that you can at least upload an image — something I can’t do at present but I think that might be due to my installation not having the GD libraries present.
Edit I can now confirm your observation of missing localisation fields for section titles on an un-patched MLP install. I’ve updated my table of problems to include this.

Re: MLP - The Multi-Lingual Publishing Pack
Nice to see you back Steve! I think you may have missed the translation inputs for “category” titles. That was a problem for me, in addition to the section titles.
Also – will the new version of MLP still require hacks to the TXP file/s? I believe Ruud was asking before what it would take for TXP to become MLP aware…
Thanks!
