Hi there

since I have had problems using ES Toolbar in 2 languages. I found out the following issues. I create tow menus DE-Toolbar and EN -Toolbar. It seem to be very important that those two menus should use same link "Alias"

For example : german - alias "photos"
For example: english - alias "photos"

This turned out be wrong:

For example : german - alias "fotos"
For example: english - alias "photos"

Since people probably using alias in there own language this could cause a problem- please check

I not sure if I am ride but using same alias in 2 different languages worked.
Hi Peter,

I'm not really sure if I'm understand you correctly, seems like as I access your site with english and german language seems like it will follow the correct alias that you've set in the menu : https://www.screencast.com/t/YmNzvNPTq https://www.screencast.com/t/1lbrpym5OiTf
Perhaps, I've understand you wrongly, can you elaborate more on this with screenshot might help a lot

Yes Muhammad:D

What i meant Muhammad is that setting menus in different languages people usually using there own language for alias. That was the mistake I made. For e.g. the German word for coffee is Kaffee, and this is the problem. Assume people do this because they tent to build there site in German, they perhaps use allways german alias for menus. Alias in ES Toolbar should only use one Language for all other languages.

Now this is difficult to explain I try with screenshots

Hi Peter,

I've make some fix in the file:
.../administrator/components/com_easysocial/includes/router.php
in the getMenus function.
Can you give it another try?
