Important Wrong link to forum when using multilanguage

12 years 7 months ago #1 by alliance2000
Hi all!

I'm using a Joomla 1.7 website with multilanguage support (german/english), JomSocial 2.2.4 and Kunena 1.6.5. In the JomSocial-menu there is a button called "forum", which gives in the german version the following link when clicked:

.../index.php/de/forum/aktuell?language=de-DE

The forum opens and everything is fine. When I switch to english, the link is the following:

.../index.php/en/forum/aktuell?language=en-GB

Now the problem is, that the forum-menu is missing! The link calls the wrong module ("forum/aktuell" instead of "forum-en/aktuell-en"). When I change the link manually to the following:

.../index.php/en/forum-en/aktuell-en?language=en-GB

or when I click the "english flag" (in the Joomla language switcher module) the link changes like this:

.../index.php/en/forum-en/aktuell-en

Tadaa! The menu is visible again. So how can I change the link behavior of the forum-button to the correct behavior?


Thanks for your help!

Jack


Additional info:

As described in the Joomla 1.7 multilange-tutorials I have created 2 Kunena-Menus (1 german only called "kunenamenu" and 1 english only called "kunenamenu-en") and the corresponding menu items are linked between those two menus.


Here is the configuration info from Kunena:

We haven't tested Kunena 1.6 in multi-language environment (J1.6+) and it looks like that we forgot to implement the feature.

I will try to fix this into the next release (out in about a week).

I have done another approach to the problem and I was able to fix it. I hacked the joomla menu-behavior and implemented a JText-feature. So now I have only one Kunena-menu and it uses JText from the language-ini-files. By doing this, I can use as many languages as I like and need only one Kunena-menu!


Case closed! ;)

Actually I added some support for this into K1.7.0 -- it's not perfect but works by adding menus for all languages into the same Kunena Menu.

Oh boy -- I hope that I will never need to create a multilingual site in Joomla 1.7! It took me a few hours to figure out how to make it to work, even without Kunena.

I'm using Kuena on my multi-lingual (German/English) Joomla2.5 site. Though Kuena supports multiple languages the tabs on header do not switch language. So I've set up one set of menus for german language and one set for english language - this works fine but result is that with this configuration now the tabs on header are not displayed anymore. Did I miss anything by doing so? Or is this not supported at all (I'm running Kuena 1.7.2)?

greeting,
Jochen

There seems to be no documentation on using Joomla 2.5 multilanguage features with Kunena - is it possible firstly and if so HOW?
