translate Joomgallery Pictures: blank page + module issues

[apaternoster]

Hello,
On this site: http://www.elshaddai.be/index.php?lang=nl, built with
PHP Version: 5.3.13
Joomla! Version: Joomla! 1.5.26 Stable
Joom!Fish 2.2.3
French as default language, Dutch is active

I have installed the content elements for this 3rd party extension from http://www.en.joomgallery.net/downloads ... ish-2.html, and installed them.
I can translate the Joomgallery - Categories, but get a blank page when trying to translate Joomgallery - Pictures. No error codes at all in Firefox.
Content element files are installed with correct file names:
ftp://mydomainname/administrator/compon ... y_catg.xml
ftp://mydomainname/administrator/compon ... allery.xml

Does anybody know what to do about this?
-------
Furthermore, when Dutch is chosen in the front end, I see the translated category names. But 2 modules (JoomTreeview 1.5.7.1 and JoomCategories 1.5.7.1) show the French category name, while the rest of the module translation has worked and is showing in Dutch.

This behavior is new, since I upgraded to the latest Joom!Fish version.
I hope someone is able to help.
Regards,
Adelheid

When you get a blank page in Joomla it is usually an error that isn't showing. The error will show when you enable debug and set error reporting to Maximum:
*Enable Debug
Backend > Site > Global Configuration > System > Debug System = Yes
*Set Error Reporting to Maximum
Backend > Site > Global Configuration > Server > Error Reporting = Maximum
After you have noted down the error you see, set these settings back to what they were on a live site.

With the error message you get you have a start to search for a solution.

Note: I have no experience with Joomgallery, JoomTreeview or JoomCategories...

Hi Quodo,
Thanks for posting this. I got following error:
Notice: Undefined variable: jfgt_available_engines in /home/..../plugins/system/jfgoogletranslator.php on line 68

Fatal error: Call to undefined method translationFilter::translationFilter() in /home/..../administrator/components/com_joomfish/contentelements/translationJoomgallery_catgFilter.php on line 40

I guess the first is just a warning, and I can ignore (I have googled the error, found nothing that I could use, except a post that told me that notices are only warnings and can be ignored).

The second, fatal error: can someone help me out?
I found this in the php file mentioned above

Code: Select all

// Don't allow direct linking
defined( 'JPATH_BASE' ) or die( 'Direct Access to this location is not allowed.' );
 
class translationjoomgallery_catgFilter extends translationFilter
{
  function translationjoomgallery_catgFilter ($contentElement){
    $this->filterNullValue=-1;
    $this->filterType="joomgallery_catg";
    $this->filterField = $contentElement->getFilter("joomgallery_catg");
    parent::translationFilter($contentElement);
  }
 
  function _createFilter(){
    $db =& JFactory::getDBO();
    if (!$this->filterField ) return "";
    $filter="";
    if ($this->filter_value!=$this->filterNullValue) {
      // get list of picids in the appropriate category
      $sql = "SELECT pic.id FROM #__joomgallery as pic"
        ." WHERE pic.catid=$this->filter_value";
      // echo($sql);
      $db->setQuery($sql);
      $picids = $db->loadObjectList();
      $idstring = "";
      foreach ($picids as $pid){
        if (strlen($idstring)>0) $idstring.=",";
          $idstring.=$pid->id;
      }
      $filter = "c.id IN($idstring)";
    }
    return $filter;
  }
 
 /**
 * Creates joomgallery_catg filter
 *
 * @param unknown_type $filtertype

 */
  function _createfilterHTML(){
    $db =& JFactory::getDBO();
    if (!$this->filterField) return "";
    $categoryOptions=array();
    $categoryOptions[] = JHTML::_('select.option', '-1', JText::_('All Categories'));
    $sql = "SELECT DISTINCT cat.cid, cat.name FROM #__joomgallery_catg as cat,"
     ." #__".$this->tableName." as c, #__joomgallery as xref"
     ." WHERE c.catid=xref.catid AND xref.".$this->filterField."=cat.cid ORDER BY cat.name";
    //  echo($sql);
    $db->setQuery($sql);
    $cats = $db->loadObjectList();
    $catcount=0;
    foreach($cats as $cat) {
      $categoryOptions[] = JHTML::_('select.option', $cat->cid,$cat->name);
      $catcount++;
    }
    $categoryList=array();
    $categoryList["title"]= 'JoomGallery category';
    $categoryList["html"] = JHTML::_('select.genericlist', $categoryOptions, 'joomgallery_catg_filter_value', 'class="inputbox" size="1" onchange="document.adminForm.submit();"', 'value', 'text', $this->filter_value );
    return $categoryList;
  }
}

No clue what needs to be corrected...

Perhaps the creator of these Content Element files can give a clue on what should be changed. What I'd try is to find a reference to "catg" in the joomgallery Content Element file(s) and remove that.

The installed Content Element files can be found here:
JOOMLAROOT\administrator\components\com_joomfish\contentelements\
For example the poll_data.xml has translationfilters with a section

Code: Select all

  <translationfilters>
       <polloptions_empty>text</polloptions_empty>
       <pollname>pollid</pollname>
  </translationfilters> 


where I thing that "polloptions_empty" refers to the file translationPolloptions_emptyFilter.php and "pollname" refers to the file translationPollnameFilter.php.

So when you compare these Poll filters function translationjoomgallery_catgFilter seems to be connected to a joomgallery_catg entry.

Now based on the Fatal Error message there may be a typo somewhere where "translationFilter" is called instead of "translationjoomgallery_catgFilter"???
