top 10/last 5 FAQs only appear in English

Post by ardiederich »

All of my FAQs are in English. I do have some French users, however, and they tend to browse the FAQ in French. The Top Ten list, last 5 posted, and even the categories don't appear unless I have the language set as English.

Is there a way to have these display? I'm currently on 1.5.2.

Thanks for the help.

Hi,

this should be fixed in 1.5.3 when you're chose English as default language and deactivated the automatic language detection.

I just upgraded from 1.5.2 to 1.5.4 in part so I could test this. I disabled automatic content negotiation and submitted the change. I left the default as English.

Now, in Firefox 1.0.7 or opera 8.50, when I try and change the language on the front page it always automatically goes back to English in the dropdown, and the site is always in English. You can try it at http://support.jabber.com/faq/ if you want to see what I mean.

Thanks for the help,

Hi,

you're right. :-(

I started a complete rewrite of the language code but it didn't get stable enough for 1.5.4. With version 1.5.5 this issue should really be fixed!

This still doesn't seem to be doing what I'd like. What I'm trying to get to is the phpmyfaq part of the site in French, and the articles in English. I suspect I could get this by re-saving all articles with fr as well as en, but I'm trying to avoid that.

In the 1.5.5 config I have English as the default language, and language negotiation is not marked active. Is that right? If I'm on the main page (http://support.jabber.com/faq/) and choose French and Go, the news is still there, the site is in French, but the articles and top 10/newest 5 disappear. When I click any link it then drops back to English.

I'm not sure if this is how you meant it to work or not.

Hi Andrew,

you're right, this is still buggy. :-(

Matteo and myself are working on the language issues for the 1.5.6 release. Sorry for that!
