if i want to make a bigger 1-lang (german) site multilang (en & de)
do i have to include all the available german content into the {de}content{/de} tags to make the script working?
or is it possible if only the new english content is typed in these {en}-tags?
but how can the german content then be hidden by javascript/css?
or is it enough to include only these few articles in {de} wich will be translated in english {en}?
this would be great!
(the other solution
http://www.phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.p ... c&start=60 does´nt work, because not all content will be translated...)

I use "Poor man's multilanguage enhancement v2.0" and I like it.
I only have problems using it with Content Part "File List".
Is it possible to make a language difference between the files,
for instance downloadable pdf files in multiple languages?!
Please can somebody [Fulvio] help me out. I'm stuck!

How can I limit the built in search content type in wcms v1.8 to only display the current lang content?
Possible?
in theory, not possible
practically, try putting the {LANG} tags where the result is displayed
that should make a change

no
you define just the german as main language, and the tags are needed just if you want both languages, otherwise only german is more than enough
no tags -> main language is used

well, maybe there's a workaround.
You create a first WYSIWYG content part, that contains the {LANG} part, then insert the list part with all the files in that language, then another {/LANG} wysiwyg content part and so on
this makes wcms render all, but all parts are included in that way
alternative, you use the dreaded "fulvio url technique"
- create a blank template, with just {CONTENT} in it
- create a hidden menu level where you put a different page per language
- create another template, that has this thing going
{CONTENT}
{LANG}{URL:
http://www.mysite.com/index.php?id=myenglishpage}{/LANG}
{LANG2}{URL:
http://www.mysite.com/index.php?id=mygermanpage}{/LANG2}
and so on....
should be working...

I found a working way, quit simple…
I made a content part 'file list' with in the title {LANG1}
and below the .pdf i have added {/LANG1}.
Then I made another content part 'file list' with in the title {LANG2}
and below the .pdf i have added {/LANG2}.
It will only see the sellected language!
Many thanks for the reaction,

Hi I have the problem:
First I want no changing of the sites language so i have a website before and there you select english and german (normal hTML site). so I need to start the phpwcms in one of the languages.
I have written a php script which calls a javascriptfunktion from the getvariables. but the probelm is i get always English i have once made the english selection. In the Internet Explorer
HTML Site Href which links to phpwcms:
Code: Select all
www.domain.de/phpwcms/index.php?lang=DE or EN
Code in the header of phpwcms:
Code: Select all
[PHP]
if(!empty($_GET['lang'])) {
$_SESSION['LANG'] = $_GET['lang'];
}
if(!empty($_SESSION['LANG'])) {
echo "<script type=\"text/javascript\">changeLanguage('".$_SESSION['LANG']."');</script>";
}
[/PHP]
But once i have selected the english then always i get back to english when i go to startseite link in the navigation when i'm changed it back to german (below in the footer)
Whats wrong?
In the Internet Explorer
Live Demo:
http://www.galerie-geiger.de/phpwcms/index.php?lang=DE or EN
When I change to Version V1 then all is going in Firefox but in IE it made an error.
Thanx for help.

Hi Romano,
I implemented yr great mod long time ago, when i was running 1.28. Now since the lightbox feature was implemented wt 1.3.2. yr mod is in conflict with this feature, which means that I would have to choose between lightbox and yr mod.
Pls see also my other post:
http://www.phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.php?p=85924#85924
Do u have any idea how I would need to adopt your mod that both would work?
Yr help would be highly appreciated! Thanks:!:

Same here...!
And as Christian I would like to use them both at the same time!
I hope you Fulvio or someone else has a solution for this!

non DOM

I have more problems with the script.
I had to implement a custom scrollbar script which also was in conflict with the poor mans language script.
The maker of that script replyed;
It is a non-dom script which *completely* rewrites the html, therefor
scraping any dom compliant and non-invasive additions to the html. It
would not be compatible with *any* dom compliant code.
And further he said;
This way, it is *not*
compatible with any other script that works unobrtusively without inline
code. (inline scripts still work because they are re-written.) (e.g. you couldn't run lightbox image viewer, for example)
So, if this is true, cause I haven't got the knowledge to confirm this,
would it be possible to change the script in a DOM script, so that it will work with other scripts?

No { } allowed into the summary

It seems that phpwcms version 1.3.3 does not render the summary of an article if characters { or } are included.

This was due to a conflict between {DATE:j. F Y:EN} into article_summary_list.tmpl and the tag {EN}.
Internet explorer problem

Hi,
Internet Explorer suddenly does not filter the tags anymore. The whole page appear, text in both languages and tags. Permissions are ok. Firefox is ok.
I can't figure out the problem.

Hi Fulvio!
I tried your Multilanguage enhancement and like it very much for it's simplicity and versatility. In my opinion, it's much more elegant this way, than to have doubled or quadrupled site-structures.
One problem is however, that I do need another .js-script as an IE6-transparency-fix, and those two scripts seem to collide. Possibly, because your multilanguage-script does something unusual to the DOM of the site, as another user stated.
I'd very much appreciate, if you could have a look into this problem - i'd neither have to use one of those clunky multilevelstructures, nor can I dismiss the PNG-support for IE6. Thanks a lot in advance!

Well, I found a solution for my specific problem just seconds after posting:
Oliver posted it here:
http://forum.phpwcms.org/viewtopic.php? ... ter#p81080
"2nd PNG workaround for IE <= 6 implemented. To use this set "$phpwcms['IE_htc_png'] = 2"."
Works perfectly :]
Nevertheless, having a DOM-compliant Poor Man's Language enhancement would still be nice.
It would even become the Bourgeoisie's Language enhancement :]
