Title: default starting menu item
Post by: Maciej on February 10, 2014, 09:45:28 am

Hi,
I have made almost everything to work except one thing. I cannot set any menu item as default, when it has translation. I get following error.

"Error
A menu should contain only one Default home."

Maybe I have made menu translations wrong. I did start with regular menu tree in my native language (polish) and when I installed jDiction, I set in those menu items language as polish, and added (in this same menu) another menu entries translated to english and marked as english. They are both connected to each other in "menu items associations".

Please advice how to fix it, because my visiting screen is terrible right now. It's blank page set as bilingual :( and one need to navigate from there. :(

Thanks very much,
Maciej

if you use jdiction for menu translation you have to set your default menu item language to "all" and have only one default item.

But that is the problem. I would like to have a web page opening with some nice introduction, but how can I make that happen if it can be in only one language? Most webpages start with some content in chosen language. I dont get how sould I do it :((((

Would you advise to use some other plugin for menu translation?

It seems in this forum nobody came across this problem. What am I doing wrong then?  :-\

jDiction overrides the content with the translation. So you don't need to use 2 different content items.

If jdiction can't translate a custom component I may could help you, but standard content could be translated by jdiction.

so you create a "article" -> save it -> translate it -> and it get translated in the correct language.

I think we have introduced another subject.  :-\
1. Menu translation
2. Content translation

Regarding Menu translation, I would like i.ex. start with "witamy" menu item (in native language), and if I switch for english then menu name switches for "welcome".

Regarding Content translation, I have created two different articles for each language and connected them with "content item association". No other way worked. I have tried using "translate" button but it freezes browser and I need to back arrow, so it's responsive again.

"content item association" is the default Joomla way to make translations, jdiction makes translations on a lower level.

could you please post the output of the check page? /administrator/index.php?option=com_jdiction&view=check

Thanks for your assistance so far, Harald.
I cannot change template. That's why I use Joomla. :)

I'm mean in the backend, whats the reason you use the "handicapped" template?
