Epic #90674: Backend UI not reflecting permissions
"Make new translation of this page" may create duplicate translations
Added by Christian Weiske over 6 years ago.

Backend User Interface
Description
When TYPO3 is configured to have multiple page languages, a dropdown "Make new translation of this page" appears in the Web > Page "Languages" mode (see screenshot).
If two different editors have this open before a translation exists, and both then select "Make new translation of this page: English", both will create a new record in the page_language_overlay table.
This leads to hard to find bugs because the frontend will use one record while the backend allows one to edit the other one.
There should be a check that prevents such duplicates from appearing.

Hey Christian,
sorry for the long delay!
we've merged "pages_language_overlay" into "pages" in v9, and did some heavy lifting in this area. Can you confirm this bug still exists? In addition, DataHandler checks for any existing translation when calling "localize()" which should overcome this issue as well.
Thanks for feedback!
Benni.
Maybe the problem has been solved in version 9; I tried the following tests
Prerequisites¶
- Multilanguage installation with at least 2 languages (ITA, ENG )
- A BE Usergroup "Editors" with full ACL to all tables and fields
- two BE User "Editor" and "Editor2" that belongs to "Editors"
- A couple of pages in italian ("Test1", "Test2") that the users can edit
Test 1 Execution¶
- Open two different browsers and log in with "Editor" and "Editor2"
- Go to "Test1" page with both users > Page module > languages > try to use the "Make new translation of this page > English" dropdown
Result: If I try to use the "Make new translation of this page > English" dropdown, the new translated page is immediatly created, so they should really have to use it at the very same time to cause trouble
Test 2 Execution¶
- Open two different browsers and log in with "Editor" and "Editor2"
- Go to the parent page of "Test2" with both users > List module > Click on the icon to translate the page
Result: same as before, the page is created pretty instantaneously and the "slower" editor gets a couple of warning messages (first in red, second yellow):
1: Localization failed: there already are localizations (144) for language 1 of the "pages" record 126!
The BE-User 'editor' began to edit this record 0 min ago.
Do you think it is a sufficient test?
- Parent task set to #90674
- % Done changed from 0 to 100
Thanks! That problem is solved now with TYPO3 v9.
- Status changed from Needs Feedback to Closed
@Christian Weiske thank you for your quick reply, I close this issue as solved
