Hi Albi,

now I can see the flags but when I click them nothing happens. I realized when I click, the URL in the browser looks like this:

index.php?page=plataformas-de-elearning&pt_PT

and if I change it to:
index.php?page=plataformas-de-elearning&hl=pt_PT it works!!!

What can be wrong?

thanks again!

Clear your cache and check html source for link sintax of {lang}:
For no assume_mod_rewrite and no internal_pretty_urls, correct sintax is index.php?page=alias_page&hl=locale

Have you other rewrite urls or mod_security actived?

Hi Alby,

thanks for your fast reply. I have cleared the cache but it's the same.

How can I check if my server have other rewrite urls or mod_security actived?

Cheers

All links are ok but there is a problem for {lang} or flags link are hardcoded in template?
Which version of MLE, 1.2?
Try to uploads plugins/function.lang.php again and clean cache.

Dear communty,

I am now working on a site with cmsms mle 1.2 with two (prepared for three) languages: en_US, de_AT and fr_FR.
Most things are working fine. But there are four important questions, for which I didn't find a solution at the board:

1.) (Important)The footer is not stored and not displayed except in the default language of my site - this was en_US. The entries in the htmlblobs table are existing. When I fill the table cells manually, the other footers are also not displayed on the site, but then in the editor. But there is a message from the archiver module, when I try to change/apply them:
"Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in D:\www\htdocs\maklad\modules\Archiver\Archiver.module.php on line 309 ".
Any suggestions ?
2.) (Important) I want to add different news to every language site (they will be the same but manually translated). How can I (simple) add support for this functionality ?

3.) (less important) I want to display the language icons in different colors for the active/inactive pages. I use no flags but text-images "En" "De" "Fr".
How can I force the {lang} tag to display alternative images for the active language ?

4.) (important) How can I prevent the section Header Content type from switching to Level 1 when clicked ? As I have a drop down css menu, I want it to do nothing when clicked. (Or, alternatively, bringing up the submenu tree when javascript is switched off in IE)

I found out that cmsms is one of the most easy usable cms (and I have tested MANY). Its both for the admin and the user easy to understand. Second, it is storage lightweight and has no functional overkill.
The mle version is a bit tricky but very ok, if you will integrate it fully in the next version.
Thanks for a good cms !

I am now working on a site with cmsms mle 1.2 with two (prepared for three) languages: en_US, de_AT and fr_FR.
Most things are working fine. But there are four important questions, for which I didn't find a solution at the board:

My first suggestion:
copy de_DE folder translations to de_AT and change the (few?)  items in lang php from DE to AT

1.) (Important)The footer is not stored and not displayed except in the default language of my site - this was en_US. The entries in the htmlblobs table are existing. When I fill the table cells manually, the other footers are also not displayed on the site, but then in the editor. But there is a message from the archiver module, when I try to change/apply them:
"Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in D:\www\htdocs\maklad\modules\Archiver\Archiver.module.php on line 309 ".
Any suggestions ?

- Are you sure on htmlblobs table?
  Look for table property here
- For check, uninstall Archiver module (in Admin area)
- In admin Global Content you look right?

2.) (Important) I want to add different news to every language site (they will be the same but manually translated). How can I (simple) add support for this functionality ?

Read this

3.) (less important) I want to display the language icons in different colors for the active/inactive pages. I use no flags but text-images "En" "De" "Fr".
How can I force the {lang} tag to display alternative images for the active language ?

Substitute plugins/function.lang.php with this attach (drop .mpg extension):
- add class parameter in lang plugin
- add text parameter in lang plugin (request) required a update to config_lang.php - view attach
- add urlparam parameter in lang plugin (request)

4.) (important) How can I prevent the section Header Content type from switching to Level 1 when clicked ? As I have a drop down css menu, I want it to do nothing when clicked. (Or, alternatively, bringing up the submenu tree when javascript is switched off in IE)

I don't understand much, try to post in layout section forum

Hello Alby,

- Are you sure on htmlblobs table?
  Look for table property here

- yes, i knew the document and I made the necessary changes with SQL before. I will try soon deinstalling the archiever.
- I have now a simple workaround, I don't use global content in the template, but a User defined Tag which echoes a footer text as a replacement.

read this

- Ashes to my head, I didn't dig the forum deep enough ! Sorry !

Substitute plugins/function.lang.php with this attach

- thanks !

With the cms questions I will annoy the others.

Thank you very much for your fast help !

Hi,

his there any known incompatibility between MLE and NMS ?

I get this error in NMS when creating a nem message or when I click in "User settings" tab:
Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/pgingao/public_html/bcoach/modules/NMS/NMS.module.php on line 1613

I have the latest SVN from NMS Module files and my CMSMS is 1.1.3.1 "Apia"

Thanks

Paulo
