Problems with Menus in Multilanguage Site

[jordatormo]

Hi,
I am building a multilingual site with the template cloudbase2, which is powered by Gantry.
I have followed step by step the instructions of the manual writeen by Jean-Marie Simonet http://help.joomla.org/files/EN-GB_mult ... torial.pdf.
The template I am using allows you to control the menu in the template configuration, so you can have a nice Fusion menu.

To make sure, I am not missing anything I have built in three kind of menus:

One Menu module for each language
One RockNavMenu module for each language
One Gantry menu for each language (those included in the template)


Now I have TWO problems:

1) After configuring everything as explained in the manual, if I add more menu items, these new menus can only be seen on the language directory followed by a /
Please compare:
http://www.danieljorda.com/es (this is default page when you write my domain in the browser)
AND
http://www.danieljorda.com/es/

What can I do to avoid this? Any ideas?

2) As I have set up three different menu to check out what happens, if I unpublish the two menu module types "Menu" and "RockNavMenu", they still appear on the home page, but disappear on the other menu items. Compare http://www.danieljorda.com/es/ AND http://www.danieljorda.com/es/servicios.html. The menus in red coloured letters have disappeared.

I have been working on this for three whole days and I can't make it work properly. I have also activated the Administrator module "Multilanguage status" and there are no warnings, everything is ok.

I appreciate your help on this.
Kind regards,

Daniel

A short explanation to problem 1) :
I have first built menu items for the home of every language (i.e. the menu item with the flag). Afterwards, I have activated the plugin "System - Language Filter" and then I have created the new menu item "Servicios".
Thanks again!

Sorry if you took the time to read this post. It seems it is working now and that I only had to wait ten minutes or so to let the changes apply. I'll be glad to help if you have any problems with this.

Hi,
in the template manager, you should duplicate the template and create one instance for every language. Maybe that's where the problem comes from...

Looks like it is an error in the code of
modules/mod_roknavmenu/lib/providers/RokMenuProviderJoomla16.php

maybe your gantry framework is not up to date with J 1.7.x

Mr infograf768 thank you so much

Thank you Daniel

Yes, thanks infograf768 , that linked saved the day for me too.

Tutorials &etc always deal with plain vanilla Joomla installations and there are added layers of complication when extensions such as K2 and template specific menus are used.

RocketTheme fusion menus only seem to work with duplicated templates for multi-language sites.

It's a shame that Menu Associations don't work either.
