Hello,
I'm having trouble with some of zentools2 modules for multi-language site.
Language is Japanese (default) and English.

Zentools2 Grid is working fine with FaLang.
But I cannot get zentools2 Filter & Carousel work with FaLang.

Here is an example of Zentools2 Filtered layout:
- Item layout: Title, Introtext
- Filter type: Category
- Content source: Joomla articles
- Content selection: multiple categories
- Language filter: No language restrictions (Tried all, but none of them work)

* Language of Joomla articles are set to "All".
* Articles are translated into English in FaLang.

Even when language is switched to English on front-end, the module does not retrieve English translation.

Can you please advise me how to get it work?
Thanks,
rikao

Hello again,

Any thoughts or advices would be appreciated.
I'm afraid but I need to conclude whether to use zentools2's Filter & Carousel or not for our multi-language site.

Thanks,

Hi Rikao,
Sorry for the trouble but this is known issue. I meant ot have it for release in the last version however it didn't get added. I'll have this fixed in the next version for early next week.
Thanks

Hi Anthony,
Thank you for your reply.
It's great to know the issue is already addressed.
Looking forward to the next version

Thanks,
rikao

Sure no probs

Hello,
I noticed that I was wrong.
Filter & Carousel was not the issue.

I found that "selecting joomla categories" is not working.
When I selected each articles one bye one, it works.

Hope this exact issue is addressed in next version.
Thanks,
rikao

I'll check with Anthony on this

Cheers
Paul

Hello again,

Is release date available for the next version of zentools2 (v2.2.6)?

Sorry, I don't mean to push, but I'd like to know if it's going to be released this week or not.

Thanks,
rikao

Hi Rikao

sorry I will chase this up

Hi Rikao,

Is your category also translated within the falang component?

Zentools doesn't select translations from the falang database tables, the falang plugin should replace the standard Joomla queries when the contents should be translated, as it doesn't use the built in Joomla multi-language functionality.

If your site is live, could you open a ticket with access details so we can take a closer look at your set up?

Regards,

Rob

Hi Rob,

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, category name is also translated within the FaLang component.
And zentools2 successfully shows these translated category names.

It would be great if you can take a look at the actual site.
I will create a ticket and enclose the access details.

Thanks!

Thanks

Can see Rob is helping you with this
