Well,
History changelog
here
Release in forge
Diff file is VS CMSMS 1.3
PAY ATTENTION TO UPDATE:
- icons flag are out of pack (there is download file in forge or read note of this)
- last options (from 1.02 MLE) are now in
Site Admin > Global Settings but options in config_lang.php have priority
(My advice is set in Admin and drop from config_lang.php, view config_lang.php.alby for example)

- icons flag are out of pack (there is download file in forge or read note of this)
Some remarks for installing the icons:
a) create 2 directorys:
- images/lang
- admin/images/lang
b) copy the icons in both directorys
For updater:
Some icon names have changed. E.g. "en_US.png" is now "us.png".
- last options (from 1.02 MLE) are now in Site Admin > Global Settings but options in config_lang.php have priority
In "mle/function.mle.php" you should change line 10 to:
Code: Select all
if(('' !== $replace) && (false !== strpos($val['flag'], $replace))) $hls[$key]['flag'] = str_replace($replace, $strreplace, $val['flag']);

Hi,
I'm quite happy someone make precision about flags, but unfortunately I'm still unable to see it. I succeed to install 1.3-MLE yesterday, but I can't see any flags (not in admin nor in site). I create both directories, try keeping or changing this line 10 as Wiedmann said.
Ideas?

1. Create on cms_root/images a folder (ex: lang)
2. Put in this new folder your icons flags only (ex: us.png, it.png, de.png)
3a. in config_lang.php use ABSOLUTE LINK for your icons flag (ex: 'flag' => '',)
3b. in config_lang.php use RELATIVE LINK but
copy your folder images/lang in admin/images/lang
3a and 3b are alternative, first use 1 folder and second 2 folders

Tip #10 for opacity
Ok, look in admin and frontend

Hi,
I could'nt manage it...
The cms_root is it a directory? Because I was thinking I just have to create a /lang in folder /images already present after CMS installation.
The original config.lang.php contain a url link: /path_cms_root/images/lang/us.png"
Even both of them dont work for me...

No, is an alias for your "real" cmsms folder
cms_root is the value (if exist) of
subfolder of $config['root_url'] in your config.php if you drop
http://www.mysite.com
Is the absolute link (relative to root of your webserver) for your images
For example:
$config['root_url'] = '
http://www.mysite.com';
'flag' => '',
$config['root_url'] = '
http://www.mysite.com/cmsmadesimple';
'flag' => '',
In case 3b use always images/lang (without first slash)
Is the relative to your cmsms folder position
'flag' => '',
but, in this case you must copy this folder also in admin/images/lang (if not admin don't know images/lang folder)

Hi Alby,
First of all, thanks a lot for this cms system. I researched a few different ones out there but I found that the CMSMS has the flexability that I need. I have been experimenting with it for about a month now and wrote a module which works great.
Question: I just upgraded to MLE 1.3. It all works great. Is there a way to customise so that only certain languages flags will show up on certain pages. i.e. if I have three languages 'en', 'it', 'es', not all pages will be translated into all three languages. If page A is only translated to 'it' and 'es' then I only want those flags to display on that page, the 'en' flag should not display.

I found a way of doing it, it's not very pretty but it's a start. I added this if statement to the function.lang.php
Code: Select all
foreach($hls as $key=>$mle)
{
// Start custom flag display
if(!in_array('content_'.$mle['block'],$contentobj->mProperties->mPropertyNames)){
break;
}
// Start custom flag display
$link_url = $config['root_url'].'/'.$key.'/'.$_end_url_part;
then removed the languages that I didn't want to display from the cms_content.prop_names database table, so that the value now reads: content_it,content_es.
TODO: Set up a list of checkboxes in editcontent.php page in the admin area where the admin would be able to select the languages that they want displayed on the page. This would update the prop_names field in the cms_content database table.

I don't like much
perhaps is better check table for presence of menu_text
