Joomla 2.5.x Multilanguage Problem

Hello all

I have to say, that I'm using Chronoforms for the first time.
And it's my first Joomla 2.5.x Project (know 1.5.x very well).

I actually like the new multilanguage possibility with Joomla.
I use a very simple Chronoforms Form. 1 page and Thankyou Message.

I use the menu assign for linking each menu point to each language (since every language has the same sitemap structure).

Chronoforms I use over Menu integration (not plugin in content).
Now I noticed, that when I'm, as example, in the german lanuage on the form and click on english, the english form will be shown. Just when I submit the english form, there will be shown a 404 Message.

Now I noticed some major difference, when I first time click on the form, url paramters are as follow

http://localhost/index.php?option=com_chronoforms&view=form&Itemid=495&lang=de

but when I change language from french to german I get only

http://localhost/index.php?Itemid=495&lang=de

The form will be shown, just the submit will miss the component information and will lead to an 404 error. Is this a Joomla or Chronoforms problem?

any idea how I can link the menus to the diffrent languages, that it will work?

thanks for any hints

regards pawel

Hi Pawel,

I don't know much about multi-language menus in Joomla! :-(

ChronoForms will pick up the submit URL from the calling URL, if that is missing the option value then it will cause an error.

A few things that you might try:

[list]

Use a single menu for all languages and let Joomla! or JoomFish handle the language tag.

Turn Relative URL to No in the form General tab (click the Name link in the Forms manager to open it)

Use Menu entries of type External URL.
