Yes, THANK YOU, that translates! Woohoo! So I started adding back the templates and parameters and testing after each one. Turns out I needed to have the tvPrefix set to tv. (I was sure it was supposed to be empty) and 2 of my menu templates still had old Wayfinder placeholders. The hazards of retrofitting an existing site.

I'll try a basic call to see if I can get the pdoResources snippet working this way too.

One thing I am unclear on is how exactly I add a TV to be translated... Is that in the tutorial somewhere?

Thank you for all your help Bruno - I bought you a beer! (Or maybe two, depending on what kind of bar you visit.)

Hi,

I'll take this chunk stuff step further than lucy...

I (like to) have separate chunk calls for both languages in mml_content field

Chunks (cached & uncached) will display OK if it's content is basic html, but as soon as i have Chunk or Snippet call in that particular chunk, the translation displays only default language. (all mml_ fields).

My setup is

MML Template >
Chunk (Template layout) >
Chunk [[!$Content]] >
TV [[+mml_content]] >
Chunk [[$lnside_mml_content]] >
Chunk [[$YesImAProblem]]

Is this getting too complicated laugh

Is it possible to have chunk calls in mml_content field?

translated stuff needs allways be called uncached, like:

[[!$YesImAProblem]]

this way the chunk is cached for each language seperatly (with mmlCache), otherwise MODX would cache the first language and you will get allways the cached one.

If nothing should be cached by mmlCache, you can call mmlCache with

&cache=`0`

For absolute uncached tags try this special tag-syntax:

[![!Formit? &..........]]

Thanks for the beers, Lucy!

You can add additional TVs with the Formmanager in the migxMultiLang - CMP
You can duplicate the default (example)- configuration and add tabs and fields for TVs to the form, just like you would do with any other MIGX-configuration.

Chunk inside mml_content works both ways cached or uncached.

mml_content content

[[$test]] //works
[[!$test]] //works

But if that particular Chunk has chunk call in it - even uncached, it won't work > displays default lang.

"test" Chunks content

<p>Lorem Ipsum</p> //Works

<p>Lorem Ipsum</p>
[[!$YesImAProblem]] //Not working

Hmm...

Here: http://www.webcmsolutions.de/en/nested-chunks.html

I have in the content:

<ul>
[[!$chunk_level1]]
</ul>

in chunk_level1:

<li>chunk_level1
<ul>
<li>[[!$chunk_level2]]</li>
</ul>
</li>

in chunk_level2:

chunk_level2: [[+pagetitle]]

pagetitle is translated as it should

Weird?

Not working for me? Still displays default english lang on both.

Just to make sure. Is this in mml_content field on both languages?

<ul>
[[!$chunk_level1]]
</ul>

the plugin does autodetect the users language and switches to that language by default.
https://github.com/Bruno17/migxmultilang/blob/master/core/components/migxmultilang/elements/plugins/mml_initculture.plugin.php#L78

Dunno if this helps?

Check also your culture_key setting
