Description

Scenario:
- You have a 1-on-1 translated website
- TypoScript settings: config.sys_language_mode = strict and config.sys_language_overlay = hideNonTranslated
- Page in default language is enabled
- No translation

Output:
If you use a menu (HMENU or menu element doesn't matter) in the secondary language, the page from the default language is shown. So it is falling back on the default language.

Expectation:
Because you've set the mode to strict with no fallback, you expect this page to not show up in the menu.

This is the behaviour in CMS7 and 8

@Richard Haeser I got this same issue on TYPO3 9.5.4

In site configuration I set for the second language

[fallbackType] = strict

and on TS Setup

config.sys_language_mode = strict 
config.sys_language_overlay = hideNonTranslated

So far, I've seen that if you edit the page properties:

Tab language > Localization > set Hide page if no translation for current language exists = YES

It works. I've not tested it with 8.5

@Richard Haeser can you perform a test with 9.5.5 ?

I tried the following short test (with 9.5.5)

1) TYPO3 with two languages ITA, ENG (ID=1)
2) In site configuration I set for the second language

[fallbackType] = strict

3) TS Setup:

page = PAGE
page.20 = HMENU
page.20.wrap=<ul>|</ul>
page.20{
  1 = TMENU
  1.NO.wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li> 
}

page.100 =< styles.content.get

As you can see, I omitted

config.sys_language_mode = strict 
config.sys_language_overlay = hideNonTranslated

4) I set up a pagetree like this one:

Home
  |
  +---test b
  |
  +---test


5) Only the "home" page and the "test" page have been translated in ENG, so:
Italian English
Home Home in Eng
test b
test test in Eng

Results when viewing the home page:

  • in ITA, the menu shows both "test b" and "test"
  • in ENG, the menu shows only "test in Eng"

I can confirm that this is working correctly with the current 9.5.8 release now. Will check v8

After a short test, it seems that it is still present on 8.7.26: a page that is present in default language but not translated is present in both menus, default language and translated.

Unless you check "Hide page if no translation for current language exists"...

I close this issue in agreement with the reporter;

If you think that this is the wrong decision or experience the issue again on recent TYPO3 versions, pleae reopen me or ping me. Thank you.

This issue still persists for 9.5.9.

I have two languages DE/FR.
In the FR menu are fallback DE pages listed, which are not translated to FR.

The fallbackType is set to strict for FR in my site configuration.

Hi Benni

Updated to 9.5.13 but it is not fixed. Did an additional test in a new Setup with the same result.

Hey,

can you please check the following two things:

- In global settins: [FE][hidePagesIfNotTranslatedByDefault] - to be strict, this should be set to true in your installation
- On the page that does not have a translation: what are the l10n conf settings for that page?

The site settings (and strict mode / content fallback etc.) are relevant for content, but not necessarily for the pages.

Hi

Apparently, the setting [FE][hidePagesIfNotTranslatedByDefault] does the trick. Thanks!
IMHO it should be moved to the Site Configuration as it is really misleading to configure such elementary configurations in two places.

I suggest to move this setting to the Site Configuration.

Greetings
Gion

Updated by Jonas Eberle almost 4 years ago

I just tested this in 9.5.15 and 10.4.1-dev.

It works now as expected.

The setting [FE][hidePagesIfNotTranslatedByDefault] does not change the outcome (which is how it should be in my opinion).

Close it or leave it open for 8 ELTS?

Updated by Hagen Gebauer over 3 years ago

I am having problems with multi-level page menus in TYPO3 version 10.4.9

  1. My Site Configuration: English as default, and German as secondary language
  2. I am using the fluid_styled_contents templates MenuSubpages.html and MenuSitemapPages.html – no site-specific Typoscript HMENU
  3. MenuSubpages.html recursively calls the exact same section for each level, whereas MenuSitemapPages.html calls one for the first level and then recursively a section submenu for all following levels.

fallbackType: strict – shows all pages in original language if no translation exists
fallbackType: free – respects translations in first level of menu (and shows only translated pages) – but shows all pages in sub levels: also if no translation exists

config.sys_language_mode = strict
config.sys_language_overlay = hideNonTranslated
do not change a thing

['FE']['hidePagesIfNotTranslatedByDefault'] => 1
in LocalConfiguration.php is doing the job – but in the wrong place in my opinion. The fallbackType in the Site Configuration should work. And since fallbackType: free works in the first menu level but not in lower levels, this does seem to be a bug.

Also I do not understand why fallbackType: free appears to be stricter than fallbackType: strict.

Hey Hagen,

I guess this might be a different issue. Can you confirm if the problem still occurs with TYPO3 v10?

Hey. I hope it's ok to close here: The main issue has been resolved and the question by Hagen should go to a fresh issue in case we missed something that hasn't been resolved with v12 yet.
