For me it's the first time using T3 & Purity III.
This is the solution.
1. I have three menus : Main Menu (ID), Main Menu (EN), Main Menu (ZH)
2. We have to make three style of templates, use save as copy : Purity III - ID, Purity III - EN, and Purity III - ZH.
3. Set up the Menu on Navigation, example : Purity III - ID --> Menu --> Main Menu (ID), don't forget to assignment, press Assignment and Use Main Menu (ID) for only selected pages.
4. Save.

Same problem here.

Menu tabs appear only after refresh when switching language.

Same problem here........

Multi-language Menu tabs appear only after refresh.

Until now I see zero support and no real solution for the bug. Nothing but laconic answers.

Anybody there?

I was able to update all in this way:

Upgrade Joomla 3.3.3 to Joomla 3.3.4
after that I upgrade Joomla 3.3.4 to Joomla 3.3.5
after that I upgrade Joomla 3.3.5 to Joomla 3.3.6
after that I upgrade Joomla 3.3.6 to Joomla 3.4
after that I upgrade Joomla 3.4 to Joomla 3.4.1
after that I upgrade Joomla 3.4.1 to Joomla 3.4.2
after that I upgrade Joomla 3.4.2 to Joomla 3.4.3
after that I upgrade Joomla 3.4.3 to Joomla 3.4.4
after that I upgrade Joomla 3.4.4 to Joomla 3.4.5
after that I upgrade Joomla 3.4.5 to Joomla 3.4.6

Sono pazzo? YES, I AM.

It was the only way to avoid mistakes. I don't know why!

@Audex,

I think the problem is with the B2J template - it is over 2 years old and last updated in Sep 2013: http://www.bang2joom.com/joomla-templates/b2j-manook

That is why it works OK on that older version of the framework plugin.

There is bound be a conflict between the versions of jQuery being used in the new T3 BS3 framework plugin and the version used in the template.

You can see if installing an extension that controls the version jQuery that is loaded on Joomla will fix this issue.

I am using T3 Framework v.1.4.3 & Joomla 3.3.3 (this is latest version with it works) with B2J Manookon (commercial template no longer supported) a 4 language site and it all works well, that means and configured correctly http://sexocorporel.com/

But if I upgrade Joomla from version 3.3.3 up I have this problem http://sexocorporel.com/OLD_menu_problem/index.php with T3 Framework v.2.5.2 & Joomla 3.4.6 with B2J Manookon template.

Server Apache (Linux)
Database 5.5.41
PHP 5.4.45

I am using T3 Blank BS3, & Joomla 3.4.6 on a 6 language site and it all works well if you follow the instructions here:

http://www.t3-framework.org/documentation/bs3-customization#multiple-language

Basically, you need to create a template style for each language and configure each to use the relevant menu.

Then each menu item has to use the correct template style.

Finally, you must make sure the multi-language menus are set up properly:


With all the associations for each menu item.

Each menu item must have the correct language setting.

Each Article must have the correct language setting.

Where there is not equivalent translated article - the menu item has to have the correct language and you can link it to the default language article. the article must have the language setting set to 'all'

Hi, It is just about configuration, I think.

I don't think because with Joomla! 3.3.3 works perfectly.

Hi,

It is just about configuration, I think. You guys can pm me your site url and admin account, I will have closer check.

Regards.

We have the same trouble when switching to another language - megamenu disappear until you refresh the page.. and disappears again in the next refresh - or not.. Very annoying! And Alex cure is not solving the problem..

I have the same trouble when switching to another language. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

Thanks

Megamenu change on refresh or on select language (Multilingual)

Hi i have a theme based on Helix II, i dont ask on their forums because only the premium users can ask. i've ask here because the problem on the first post is similar to one that i have.

Helix II uses MegaMenu like T3 Framework

When i load my page, the spanish menu appears OK, all fine, if i change to English, the english menu appears ok, but if i swtich to spanish, the spanish menu is not showed on it's place is showed the mainmenu assigned to all languages. to get it work and view the spanish lang again i must refresh the page or pick the flag again on the language switcher.

See the video for more references

Hi,

Could you please pm me your site url and I will check the issue in your site as I can not replicate the issue on our side.

Hello!
I thought that I can use different method for multilingual main menus. Until now I have no reason to clone the template yet.

So I have to do it now if I want to use multilingual main menus...

Thank you so much for your response!

Thanks Alex Butcher, it should work.

Vaggelis you have to save template stlyes in different names for all languages as Gardner Luna said.
Here is a screenshot, i hope it helps

Hi,

You may need to clone template style, assign right menu for the template style and assign to corresponding menu items. You can pm me your site admin account, site url and I will take a look.

Regards.

I still have not yet used the multilingual MENU navigation. I have a greek menu selected for TOP MAIN MENU navigation.

I have also the other menus created, eg the english menu, spanish etc.

But How can I enable them? Do I have to create different template clone for each language?

Thanks!

OK here is a prompt cure for the problem.

Use the following examples for menu titles for different languages:

mainmenu-hr
mainmenu-fr
mainmenu-gr etc.

Then open templates/purity_iii/tpls/blocks/header.php

Add these rows after defined('_JEXEC') or die;

$lang = JFactory::getLanguage();

$lang = $lang->getTag();

$lang = explode("-", $lang);

$lang = $lang[0];

Change the next row in <!-- NAVBAR MAIN --> section:

$logoimage = $logotype == 'image' ? $this->params->get('logoimage', 'templates/' . T3_TEMPLATE . '/images/logo.png') : '';

to this:

$logoimg = $logotype == 'image' ?  'templates/' . T3_TEMPLATE . '/images/logo-'.$lang.'.png' : '';

Optional: [
You should also change the next line, if you use the same theme for all languages:
Note: you have to rename your logo files to logo-hr.png / logo-gr.png / logo-fr.png etc.

$logoimage = $logotype == 'image' ? $this->params->get('logoimage', 'templates/' . T3_TEMPLATE . '/images/logo.png') : '';

to this:

$logoimg = $logotype == 'image' ?  'templates/' . T3_TEMPLATE . '/images/logo-'.$lang.'.png' : '';

]


Not the best solution, but it works!
Cheers.

Yes Vaggelis, Main menu disappears, and the logo image still visible but doesn't change.

The article and the Sidebar changes to the selected langaugae well, so the problem could be in the header.php (?), many variables are missing until you refresh the page, then megamenu and site image will be all right.
