TYPO3 Core

mmmh. sounds ugly ... will try to reproduce.

OK. there is indeed something broken when adding new images to translated elements

When adding an new image to a translated CE, a sys_file_reference is created with sys_language_uid = 0

Additionally, even when fixing this to 1 in the db, the item is not shown, unless l10n_parent of the CE is set to 0

And please keep in mind that the sys_file_reference record does not need a l10n_parent. That is an option. It should work in BE und FE without it.

Yep, but this is definitively not without l10n_parent the case in BE 7.6 > see https://forge.typo3.org/issues/71712

Any infos on this bug or its dublicated? This so huge, that 7.6 is almost unusable until it is fixed. I would be very grateful, if we can get some information if someone is working on this and when we can expect a fix.

+1

We also have huge problems, we just had a workshop with 20 editors and had to explain that some features (i personally consider basics) can not be used yet. I would like to start digging in the code but only have very very little time left at the moment.

Is there already work in progress?

Is there already a patch for this? It is a very big problem!
If you change the "sys_language_uid" and the "l10n_parent" manually in the "sys_file_reference" table, the image will be shown in the backend - but not in the frontend. So this is more than just a bug in the backend. (I tried it with translated objects from an extbase extension which have "just an image")
With this issue TYPO3 7 is really not usable for multi-language projects...

Check out this patch under review: https://review.typo3.org/45075 (from issue https://forge.typo3.org/issues/71712)
Couldn't test it so far but hope it will fix this. Will test asap too.

Sorry but this PATCH is just a cosmetically patch to show them in the Backend.
But they won't get shown in the FE.

And YES this is a unbelievable huge BUG.
I am stucked with several multi-language Sites too.
I can't imagine how other deal with this.
Downgrade to 7.5?
How can you tell that your customers?

Hi,

I think I've found a solution. The Problem is that the localization uid is setting as array but it should be an integer.

\TYPO3\CMS\Backend\Controller\FomrInlineAjaxController::synchronizeLocalizeAction Line 364 - 376

 if (MathUtility::canBeInterpretedAsInteger($type)) {
                $cmd[$parent['table']][$parent['uid']]['inlineLocalizeSynchronize'] = array(
                    'field' => $parent['field'],
                    'language' => $parentLanguage[0],
                    'ids' => array($type),
                );
            } else {
                $cmd[$parent['table']][$parent['uid']]['inlineLocalizeSynchronize'] = array(
                    'field' => $parent['field'],
                    'language' => $parentLanguage[0],
                    'action' => $type,
                );
            }

I also discovered problems when adding MM relations (categories) in extbase context to translated entities.

In general the behaviour of typo3/extbase for such situations is insufficient.

It is extremely hard to load an entity in a different language and nearly impossible to update it without destroying something of the original language content.
It takes hundereds of lines of code working with the PersistenceSession / Manager/ TSFE, etc.

Are there news on this? Will there be a bugfix in 7.3? This is kind of essential i would say.

Some informations:

• Original records are not displayed at translations if the field is configured as mergeIfNotBlank (and they should be)
• If a inline element is created at a translated record, the language field is not set correctly (so all inline elements are sys_language=0)

• BUT: when field is not configured as mergeIfNotBlank (so it will be copied) the value is set correctly if a translation is created from the original content

First issue solved:

Original records are not displayed at translations if the field is configured as mergeIfNotBlank (and they should be)

If you set appearance.showPossibleLocalizationRecords = TRUE your parent records are shown.

Best practice will probably be to set all options to TRUE:

showAllLocalizationLink = TRUE
showPossibleLocalizationRecords = TRUE
showRemovedLocalizationRecords = TRUE
showSynchronizationLink = TRUE

The initial issue will be solved in 7.3, its possible to create inline elements at translations BUT the language-values will still not be set correctly.

Hi,

according to:
showAllLocalizationLink = TRUE
showPossibleLocalizationRecords = TRUE
showRemovedLocalizationRecords = TRUE
showSynchronizationLink = TRUE

These settings are use in EXT:news, too. When I want to localize the FAL images, I have the following behavior:
I´ve 3 languages, DE (default), EN and FR. DE has some images (field:fal_media). When I switch to EN, I press „localize all records“ which works fine. Then I go to FR, when I click „localize all records“ nothing happens and for each image I find this entry in sys_log: "[newlog()] Localization failed; There already was a localization for this language of the record!“
The other way around, when I first „localize all records“ in FR, it works, then in EN it doesn´t work. What I can see in sys_file_reference is that, after creating the FR localization of the images, they also have sys_language_uid=1 in DB (which means EN). The other fields of the news records itself are correct.

So, as news uses FAL, I guess this is core-related, isn´t it?

TYPO3 7.6.2, news 4.1.0

Can somebody help?

Patch set 2 for branch master of project Packages/TYPO3.CMS has been pushed to the review server.
It is available at https://review.typo3.org/46813

There still seem to be issues with directly creating new child elements which will be handled in a separate issue at #73609
