Hi Guys,
as promoted here: http://stackideas.com/blog/multilingual-for-easyblog
I tried to setup my blog in two languages: German (Standard) and English.

I setup all, and all things would be translated, BUT:
There seems to be a problem with JA Multilingual and Easyblog.
I know, it´s not YOUR Product, but you have promoted it, so I ask.

Problem: When I try to translate, all blogposts will be copied AND they have the same ID and i cant translate them. Please read the problem which another user has, too here:
https://www.joomlart.com/forums/topic/easyblog-translation-integration-is-not-working-correctly/

They now give a codesnippet which brokes my backend.
Maybe you can have a look at their code and provide the correct one.

I really would be happy, as our website should go online tomorrow

best regards
We do not provide support for 3rd party extension and the only reason that we promote it was because during that time, there was a need for a multi lingual extension. I believe JA Multilingual hasn't supported EasyBlog 5 yet but it's best that you check this with them.

Also, mind you that even if we promote Joomla, it does not mean that we have to provide support for Joomla

Since Joomla 3 already has this built in, why not just stick to the multi lingual setup which Joomla provides?

By the way, please remember to assign your domain to your license to obtain for support in the future. You can do so by accessing your license area at http://stackideas.com/dashboard

I can tell you, why not Joomla own translation thing:
I´d need to create 2 posts: 1 in German, 1 in English and then I´ve 2 different counters. Thats, what I dont want to have... understand?

Yes, that is correct if you are using the multi lingual setup in Joomla but mind you, automated translations are always in bad quality and I really do not recommend that.

You´re absolutely right. BUT. The Component gives the option to edit the post then. But without creating a new one afaik...

Hey Marco,

I would suggest that you try to get in touch with the developers of the extension if you really need to use their extension The plugin for EasyBlog was actually written by them as well. They should know it better than any of us
