multilingual setup

No, just page at first to look at

This is the link to site:
I didn't complete creation sub-level of main menu in Russian and English language. But are present all menus of main level. Its enought for display homepage in different language with the same view.

Language switcher is placed on the top. When you change language the background pictures will not change. But I created three same templates and link every of them with one of used language. Also I replace background images in specific folder (like this "\templates\hot_flashes_en\images\menu") of all three templates with same pictures, but according to active language.
For my big sorrow, only those pictures from default template are shown in background of flash menu, independently from which language is active.

I want, that this background images are shown according to active language!

Open:

templates\hot_flashes\flashes_menu\menu.php

you will see this:

change it like this:


then your menu folder will change from:

templates/hot_flashes/images/menu

to

templates/hot_flashes/images/menu-xx-xx

where xx-xx is language tag. So for english it will be:

templates/hot_flashes/images/menu-en-gb

for Russian:

templates/hot_flashes/images/menu-ru-ru

Thanks you for your idea! And sorry about my late reply Was very busy!

I had done changes in file menu.php which you advise to me.
I understand meaning of this new code. As you said early, it creates different folders with background images for all languages used on site. Its make by adding into name of this folder special suffix, which is be as active language tag in lovercase.

After changing appropriate piece of code and refreshing homepage, I recieved next:
1. All background images in all 3 languages are disappeared. Simply don't display!
2. Didn't created folders with new names (with language tags in names)

What I tried to do:
1. I tried to find folders with right names in main site catalog by search tool. Didn't find any folders, exсept those, which I created myself. Images still don't display.
2. I created three folders with right names and paste right pictures in it. Didn't help. Images still don't display.
3. I had set to all menu items "hot_flashes-by default" as linked template. Until this moment, linked template to menu items was set according to language of this menu item. This is because I wanted to solve this problem in traditional way, when need to create one template for everyone used languages. Didn't help. Images still don't display.


I dont understand what I have did wrong? Or maybe, my virtual server have not permission to "allows create folders from inside of code"? I dont know! :blink:
IMHO:
It's seems like new created paths to folders with images aren't exist. That's why images aren't display.

Please, help me figure out what is wrong!

So you have:

templates\hot_flashes\images\menu-en-gb
templates\hot_flashes\images\menu-ru-ru
...

and you have copied images form templates\hot_flashes\images\menu to them?

First of all, I hadn't seen that folders "templates\hot_flashes\images\menu-en-gb" and
"templates\hot_flashes\images\menu-ru-ru" were created! Yes, they weren't created after fix code of menu.php!
In addition, all background images are disappeared in all three languages!
So, I can't copy images in this folders, because they aren't exist.


After this, I had tried to create this folder manualy and copy/paste images with text in appropriate languages into appropriate folders, but this didn't help fix this bug.

Still dont understand where bug are hids.

I have done this changes with code in menu.php on my virtual webserver. Maybe I need to done this changes with code on hosting. And you will see what is going on, when go to given link. Also you can see, will changed code in menu.php file create folders with new names , or not? What do you think about this?
