How to make multi language site with JA_Cloris 1.6?

How to make menu system…to be able to switch between 2 languages, and how to set default home page for both languages? (I have followed http://docs.joomla.org/Language_Switcher_Tutorial_for_Joomla_1.6 , and I’m afraid that this template doesn’t support multi language in Joomla! 1.6…

Has anybody done this?

Thank you.

p.s. I have installed content languages, as well as language packs. I have also translated all content, categories, articles, modules. System – Language Switcher plugin enabled, and I have created Language Switcher module (Although I’m not sure where to publish it on the front page, I think it doesn’t work as well)

to check if this is bug of the template, please switch to use a default template and checking multiple languages issue, please let know your result.

Please refer to this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsHYF9DklDc , to get detail in how to making multiple languages.
Thanks

Hello Tienhc,

I know all from the video you gave…but, have you read this…http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=617&t=593608 … this is for other JoomlArt Template, not Cloris, but basically the same…

http://docs.joomla.org/Language_Switcher_Tutorial_for_Joomla_1.6 <blockquote>Defining a Default Home page Menu item per language
As the Language Switcher Module is set to redirect to another Content Language Home Page, one Default Home page menu item has to be defined for each language in a different menu, displayed by a different menu module.
Important Note: A Menu containing a unique Default Home page menu item tagged to “All” should still exist, and the menu module displaying it should not be published or assigned to a position NOT available in the templates.
WARNING! Some templates available on the Net are not totally 1.6 compatible. They do not let create new styles and force to use a unique Default Home page.</blockquote>

After you read this, tell me what do you think for JA_Cloris_1.6

Thank you.

Ok, since no one is answering to this one, does anybody know why my Language Switcher Module is NOT showing?

When I publish it to whichever position, it doesn’t show, and I can’t choose language from the front end?

Please advise… I have submitted a ticket for this, but as it turns out, it takes a couple of days for someone form JoomlArt to even look at it.

Thank you very much.

you put it on the top-panel position but i could not show because
1) you enabled the joomla cache plugin, while the t3 cache is enabling, so any new modules are enabled you will could not see,
2) top-panel has css rules defined in the template.css file, you need customize to show the module on this position

I disable the joomla cache, please add the following code into template.css file:


#ja-top-panel {
position: fixed;
z-index: 1000;
width: 100px!important;
top: 0;
right: 0;
}
#ja-top-panel .main, #ja-top-panel .main-inner1 {
width: 100px!important;
background: none!important;
border: 0!important;
}

Ok, this one is solved… you need to have default home menu for each language (and one Home set to ALL languages). Then it will display both Flags and you can switch between languages.

Now I have problem with Blog layout…on English version.

It doesn’t show the date, and border around article when you open Blog article.

And on Serbian version, it displays date correctly on the Blog page, but when you open blog article it shows 01 JAN?? 1336413363

SERBIAN version is SOLVED by adding these lines to
joomla url>/templates/ja_cloris/html/com_content/category/blog_item.php and
joomla url>/templates/ja_cloris/html/com_content/article/default.php

$createDay = JHTML::date($this->item->created, ‘d’, true);
$createMonth = JHTML::date($this->item->created, ‘M’, true);

ENGLISH version is NOT solved. It doesn’t display date at all.

Hi,

To solve your language problem, can you please update your site url, joomla admin access and FTP access at http://support.joomlart.com/index.php?/Tickets/Ticket/View/72233 I will check the pending issue. It would be good if you can provide the exact page url where the date is published..

thanks.

Hi Mikac,

When I checked your site, In English version, I could see a date on blog page. It was on the left of Written By.. text. In Serbian language, date is published on the right top corner of the bordered box containing Cenovnik za izradu sajtova The date was showing up there because the related menu item had a Page Class defined as ja-cloris-blog.

Now in English menu item I have specified the same Page Class, which is now showing the date in English version at the same place as Serbian.

Can you please check the site and confirm that this issue is solved? Let me know if anything else is there..

BTW I could not see this issue ‘but when you open blog article it shows 01 JAN?? ‘ Can you please provide the page link where this is happening?

1 user says Thank You to himangi for this useful post

Hello Himangi,

Thank you very much! The date is showing perfectly!
I knew about Page Class (ja-cloris-blog) and I did try to apply it, but somehow it didn’t work. Anyway this is ok now.

This one can be marked as Solved!

p.s. Can you please check “Back To Top” issue, that I have mentioned in the Ticket? (I created a ticket for this #ING-566-30968)

Thank you!
