fraig showed the exact point of conflict. I will try to explain what I think happened. Mootools changes the Array.from() function. This function is native to javascript array. mootools in version 1.4.5 does not take into account receiving an object in this function. Possibly before the Google API didn't use Array.from() passing an object and recently started to use it. I think it's hard for someone to do what Mootools did, which is to overwrite something native to Javascript, but the fraig hack is perfect precisely because of that. The hack leaves the mootools code as it is, but when it comes to object conditions, it uses the native Array.from(), javascript's native function.

sokrates_mx5 can trust the fraig hack, as it doesn't change almost anything, it just adds the correct use of Array.from() which is native to javascript.
I will try fraig's hack a bit later and see how it works with the extension being used. First I have to deal with other things, e.g. I have a big "backlog" of content to work through.

If you don't want to face the code, please find attached mootools-core.js with the fraig hack. Just replace that file. You can test it's success. The only modification is:

Code: Select all

old_array_from = Array.from; //this old_array_from is the native Array.from of javascript
//....
:("object" == b(a))
                ?old_array_from(a) // use of javascript's native Array.from for type "object"
//...                
download/file.php?mode=view&id=131917
mootools-core.js

Thanks for the file. I don't have a problem changing things in the code, but now you made it even easier for me and others when we just need to upload the file :)

I will test it later on.

I updated the mootools-core.js file on my website with the latest version from mootools.net/core and Gtranslate is now working.

Hi,
a few days ago, I noticed that GTranslte plugin no longer worked properly and the only error was a console message that said something like "Resource blocked due to MIME type mismatch (X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff)".

I found that this problem was caused by Array.from javascript function rewrite by /media/system/js/mootools-core.js library:

Hello,
I tried the change and it works.
I am using Joomla! 3.10.3 and Gtranslate 3.7.6

Tanks

Back to square one after upgrading Joomla to 3.10.4 :(

GTranslate stopped working after upgrading Joomla from 3.10.3 to 3.10.4.

Uploaded the file with the hack again and cleared the cache of the browser, and now GTranslate works again :)

I found that this problem was caused by Array.from javascript function rewrite by /media/system/js/mootools-core.js library:

Code: Select all

Array.from = function(a) {
return null == a ? [] : f.isEnumerable(a) && "string" != typeof a ? "array" == b(a) ? a : e.call(a) : [a]
}
I think the best solution is to disable MooTools javascript library, if possible. In my case other parts depend on it, so I solved the problem by changing the Array.from function as follows:

Code: Select all

// Old code
// Array.from=function(a){return null==
// a?[]:f.isEnumerable(a)&&"string"!=typeof a?"array"==b(a)?a:e.call(a):[a]};

// New code
old_array_from = Array.from;
Array.from=function(a){
    return null==a
        ?[]
        :f.isEnumerable(a)&&"string"!=typeof a
            ?"array"==b(a)
                ?a
                :e.call(a)
            :("object" == b(a))
                ?old_array_from(a)
                :[a];
};
In my case the translation started working again. I hope this solution can be useful. :D

I'm using Joomla! 3.4.6 and GTranslate 3.7.6.

Great solution, it's a machine. Thank you very much it worked for 3.10.4 and Gtranslate 3.7.6, but when updating joomla it stops working. I tried with the same solution, but it doesn't work, does it work for anyone?
Can you help me for version 3.10.9?

Thank you sooooo much! It works perfect with my plugin RokSprocket and GTranslate, Joomla 3.10.
Before it was not translating any pages with RokSprocket modules, now it does.
Great job!!! :D

Hello
Thanks for introducing the GTranslate plugin, does Joomla's GTranslate use the power of Google Translate?
If there is more guidance, please explain.
Thank You

hello,

I have a problem. I use Joomla! 3.10.11 and gtranslate as well as the google translate widget application do not work on the site. if I delete mootools-core.js then it works but instead only another function from the site works for me which I also use and it is more important than translate.

I also uploaded mootools-core.js modified by the colleague above, but that doesn't work either.

thanks
