I need a multilanguage event component for joomla 2.5. I installed icagena - and it works well in german. Then I have installed an xml-file for joomfish - now I can see all the data in the backend, I can translate and publish and so on - but in the frontend there is nothing to see.
have a look: www.kreative-ideen.de/en/events.html

Maybe there is also a workaround to use icagenda in a multilingual site

Thanks for any hint!

Hi

and thanks for your reply!! I prefer to work with joomfish as it is much more comfortable than the build-in core multi-language. And normally it works without problems as well for 3rd part elements.

I made 2 xml-files - one for the categories and one for the events: here they are:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<joomfish type="contentelement">
<name>Icagenda</name>
<author>vanbrel</author>
<version>2.5.1</version>
<description>Definition for the Icagenda component</description>
<reference type="icagenda_category">
<table name="icagenda_category">
<field type="referenceid" name="id" translate="0">ID</field>
<field type="titletext" name="title" translate="1">title</field>
<field type="text" name="alias" translate="1">alias</field>
<field type="text" name="desc" translate="1">desc</field>
</table>
</reference>
<translationfilters>
<published>published</published>
</translationfilters>
</joomfish>


<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<joomfish type="contentelement">
<name>Icagenda</name>
<author>vanbrel</author>
<version>2.5.1</version>
<description>Definition for the Icagenda component</description>
<reference type="icagenda_events">
<table name="icagenda_events">
<field type="referenceid" name="id" translate="0">ID</field>
<field type="titletext" name="title" translate="1">title</field>
<field type="text" name="alias" translate="1">alias</field>
<field type="text" name="desc" translate="1">desc</field>
<field type="text" name="language" translate="1">language</field>
</table>
</reference>
</joomfish>

both files are short and simple and in the backend everything is fine.

so if you have any idea: you are welcome

Hi

thanks for the link - now I understand that I need such a"translationfilter-php-file". But the link you sent is very old. the new joomfish has an absolute different file structure; the translationfilter-files are now somewhere in joomla/libraries.

And I'm not a developper - just a webdesigner. Can someone create the needed php file for me - a reasonable payment is o.k.

Hi

tks for the offer - just keep me updated; in the meantime I will try to use the integrated multilingual possibilities.

Let me know when I can contribute somehow.

Tks

Hallo

thank you very much again; Pls excuse that I would like to ask you for another favour - it's about the interim solution I tried and which doesn't work properly. Only if you have the time please look at these pages:

www.kreative-ideen.de/fr/calendre.html here you see 2 testevents (same in german)

www.kreative-ideen.de/en/events.html here you only see 1 event (I have no idea why the second one is not to see / if you want I can send you by email the data of an administration account to see yourself).


But the main problem is: switching from one language to the other is not possible anymore when I'm on the event-details page. Is this normal or is there a mistake from my side?

Enjoy your sunday!
