Strange language problem (german) with tiki 6.x

posts: 24 Germany

Hi all,

I notice a strange behaviour on tiki.org and my local tiki installation.

If I visit tiki.org or if I browse my local tiki everything's fine. If I want to edit an article or a wiki page, no wiki editor is available.

Screenshot when clicking on create new article: Image

If wysiwyg editor is turned on, the problem seems to be gone. But switching to wiki editor doesn't work.

If I toogle the language to english or any other, everthing's fine again.

The same problem occurs to me on logging in at tiki.org with german as site language.

E.g. entering the forum features/usability shows me this: Image

Switching to english or spanish solves this issue.

Anybody can confirm this? This's a bug?

cheers

Hello Manfred,

there might be a bug in the german language file.

It seems that we have to find it and repair the file before Tiki 6.2 will be released.

I think I narrowed the problem down to language.php. After clearing the whole file except for

I did some more testings: code line 5867 in de/language.php caused the error

"Common optional parameters for maketoc are: title|maxdepth|levels|nums, and for toc are: order|showdesc|shownum|structId|maxdepth|pagename." => "Übliche optionale Parameter für sind: title|maxdepth|levels|nums - und für sind es: order|showdesc|shownum|structId|maxdepth|pagename.",


So the workaround for the language problem is:

  • get an utf8 text editor
  • search for line 5867
  • delete the "{" and the "}" from german translation part
  • clear tiki cache


@Torsten Fabricius: do you have svn access? Would your upload a fix?
btw: where did you ask to get this access? devel-list?

Both workarounds did not help in my installation
This workaround is OK. I forgot to clear the tiki-Cache. After clearing the cache it worked.
Thanks very much.

Thank you for detecting the problem & providing the fix!
