Drupal 6 multi language menu items – a mystery…
I am currently deeply involved in translating our current D6 website. It exists in English, we already foresaw that we would translate it, so i18n was activated.
First of all, I made sure that all my content and menu items were correctly set to English. Next step was to add the new languages, so I added Dutch and French. I configured the language negotiation so that we only use path prefix.
Activated the language switcher block and lo and behold…. SOME of my menu items staid visible in NL while others disappeared as they should. So, I went over all my settings again, checked all my content, but everything was set and configured as it should have been.
Slowly becoming desperate, I finally simply deactivated the menu items giving me this problem and reactivated them.
This, ladies and gentlemen, did the trick…
If anyone out there has a good explanation for this, please enlighten us.
ps: caching was off since I was working on my local dev site.
