it works on defaulkt language, but when i set another language on the front there are no products.

@rado85:
Did you prepare for multilingual mode (check Language/Translations forum section) your web shop?

[rado85]

i think i did. chceck:
polishlanguege (default)
http://www.be-art.pl/pl/

and english:
http://www.be-art.pl/en/


and as i said before. on polish is products module where i set latest products, and i wanted to do the same with english but it display only randim products, if i check latest products there is no products.

i find out that if i translate product disapears from default language in latest products.... any ideas ?
Why everything works fine if i change in configuration/ shop view New products - order / last modified on the begining ? i would like last created on the begining. Sorry for english but i have virtuemart in polish.

Hi,
i have to make new topic, because the problem is hard to solve here i think ->> http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=114301.15

i have VM 2.20b and problem with products module in multilangual shop.

So i have set products module to display latest products on my default polish language. Everything was fine untill i started to translate products. Every translated products doesn`t display in this module as latest product.
So when I copy this module to display latest products on english version it is empty. I wondering why if i translate product it can`t be in latest products. When i set module to show random products - works fine. If i change in VM configuration / Shop View "New products - order" from last created to last modified  - works fine - WHY ? I want to show last created not last modified. It seems that if i translate product it can`t be as last created even if i have just created this product??!!

Please Help

Could you precisely check those latest products in polish? Maybe some of these specific products are not translated to english?

On which page this module is published btw?

[jenkinhill]

Have the modules been assigned to menu items in each language?

[rado85]

@jenkinhill Yes i have tried everything. To asign to each language menu, or one module in every language. in default polish it displays every not translated products. on english it doesn`t display anything. now it displays last modified...

@Maxim Pishnyak i published this module`s on both english and polish. but i set now to show last modified, when i set latest - only on pollish show products there are not translated. i don`t understand that....

Will you help me? maybe i`ll give admin acess for someone on priv? please...

I'm not shure what causes your problem with the 'Latest Products' module. Your frontpage looks like you are displaying only the latest products modules in the content area. Is this correct? If I understand you correctly, you do have one copy of the 'Latest Products' module with the pl language tag and another  copy of the 'Latest Products' module with the en language tag, which is correct. Please check if you have selected 'Featured Products' in both module settings > Basic Settings.

However, the Joomla language switcher might have some problems, because your menus (artists) and categories are different in each language. In order to work correctly, each menu item and each category has to be present in both languages. I would suggest that you do this first. Also, please check your 'Multilingual Status' in Joomla as described in the first part of this short tutorial: http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/36-multilingual-store/99-multilanguage-setup.html
Everything has to be green on the multilingual status page!

I don't know if this could be a problem, but you seem to have configured Joomla to choose the language depending on the user's browser language. In case you have the Joomla cache enabled, disable it - just in case the language switcher has a problem with loading the correct language from cache. Joomla cache should be turned off anyway if you use it with VirtueMart.

You might compare your site's language setup with the one introduced at this forum link:http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=110005.0

I think this is VM 2.20 b Bug. I updated to 2.22a and it worked fine after i edited product again in other language and save it again. Very Weird

[Maxim Pishnyak]

So everything is ok, Rado?

[rado85]

I have to check it. there is a lot of work during update VM. I have to make good template overlay. but i tried to update VM to 2.22a and i had new products in english module so it seems that there was a bug in 2.20 b or i modified VM during configuration to this website I will let you know

[rado85]

OK, the problem is with products module.

in VM 2.20b and AIO 2.20b look like above:
this module doesn`t display latest products (random or featured are ok) on other languages than default (PL in my case).
If i set latest products works onnlu if i   set in VM configuration - New products - Last modified...

When i updated VM and AIO to 2.22b sorting in category crashed. So AIO 2.22b sucks.

please help!
