Hello,
I'm using a Joomla 2.5 multi language site (italian and english).
I need to use differente text for the category description (one for english and one for italian), but If I fill the description in IT-it and EN-en tabs, I can't see my translation (see attached image).

Where I can manage this languages?
I have already activate the multi language format in Hikashop option.
I've a simple language selector (default of Joomla 2.5) as language switch.
I need also to translate my added field

thanks in advance
Giorgio

Hi,

Which multi-language system are you using ?
In this component language entries, do you see the edited names ?

I'm using the default Joomla 2.5 components to manage translation.
I've no installed any components or plugin to do that.

Before you can configure your languages via these tabs, you must have had installed either joomfish or falang on your website. Otherwise, you shouldn't be able to turn on the multilingual interface option of the Languages tab of the configuration.
If you check your database with phpmyadmin, you should definitely see the table of either joomfish or falang in there.
HikaShop multilingual system requires either joomfish or falang to be installed and configured, to be able to work properly. Of course, you can still translate the rest of your joomla content with the default system.

Hello,
I've installed Joomfish, but I can't still use the languages tab, the site won't show the English content.. what I need to do?
For example also, I want to change the name of a category, (ex. "Artisti" is the default italian name, and "Artists" the englis translation), what I need to do?
Thanks
Giorgio

Hi,

I'm not able to log on your website with the access provided.

If you get a blank page, please turn on the debug mode and the error reporting options of the joomla configuration and try again. Then, please tell us if you get an error message instead of the blank page.
If you don't, the please look in your PHP error log (you can ask your hosting company if you don't know what that is) for the Fatal error message on that page that is not displayed by PHP.
