Hi,
You are contradicting yourself:
-Menu module is set to all languages - Yes
-You have double menu items in menu one for each language - Yes
-Home page menu item is set to all languages - Can't be. If I set it to all languages the Language switcher won't be able to detect the language and won't display it. That brings up another problem that in order to define a menu item as the default home page for a language the menu item MUST be a component. That messes up the whole One Page thingy.
-You have language switcher module published - Yes.
Now the menus show up for both languages. They look awful and the rest of the pages are gone.
I'm just about to give up on your templates. This is my first experience with your templates and it's not a good one.

What looks awful. Now all look as it should. That language is RTL so it looks like that.

After I enabled the drop down menu in the template settings the menu's look was fixed. This goes against any common sense as there are two menus for each language, one set as a module and another one via the template settings.
This DID NOT solve my issue with the nonfunctional pages. As you can see, only the first page is presented. I feel as if I'm repeating myself to many times. The template DOES NOT WORK properly with multiple languages.
I'll simplify it for you:
1. I would like to have a One Page multilingual site.
2. I've set all that is needed for a multilingual site.
3. In order to enable multilingual site one of the menu items IN EACH language must be set as home page. This can be done ONLY by defining the menu item as a component.
4. I defined the home menu item as component and that screwed up all other pages.
5. I'm running out of patience.
PLEASE, solve my issue or refund my money. Your call.

In that template each menu item needs point to some anchor tag within same. If link is
#article1
in article content you need to mark it as
<a name="article1" id="article1">Scroll to here</a>
You menu item links look like this <a href="/חברים">מועדון חברים</a> you should not use non alphabet letters for that.
If you want normal navigation for some menu item , set menu item class suffix " external"

Look Ivan, I do appreciate you trying to help but this is not going anywhere.
I'm using YOUR articles with all the anchors YOU'VE inserted. Check the English site.
The moment I changed the menu item to component Single Article and assigned it as the home page for the language all other pages where gone!
It's not the anchors.
Make my life and yours easier, give me your email, I'll send you the admin access and you can look for yourself. It's an issue with the template and many people complaint in your forum about it.
