kjar Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Hello, I'm on presta: 1.7.8.1 My issue is the following : I work on a site in 2 languages If I deactivate a language, it is no longer available on the product sheet. On the other hand it is well available normally on categories and attributes ... So I cannot prepare my product sheets in this language without activating it, which is a problem on front office Have you encountered this problem and do you have a solution. Thank you in advance for your answers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmartDataSoft Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Hello, @kjar According to the PrestaShop system if you disable it will not possible to show in front end and also backend. When language is disable it means they will not used. You need to use both language if want to do that. If any other has any solution they will give you. Thank you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Hello, Thanks for your comment, but for me it's just a really big BUG and not a concept. Since the first versions, 1.4 ... 1.6.n, prestashop natively manages multilingual sites and the concept has always been the following: All the installed languages are visible in the BO and only the activated languages are visible on the Front. Here on 1.7.8.1 it mixes the two: nothing on the article sheets and half on the category for example (you can translate the title but not the text), it's a bit of nonsense to me! All CMS (WP, Drupal, ...) are working on this concept otherwise impossible to work on a Back translation before putting it online.

JBW Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 A easy workaround could be to hide the language on the frontend in the language selection by CSS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good recommendation, you can also install a redirect so 2nd language is not indexed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjar Posted January 13, 2022 Author Share Posted January 13, 2022 @JBW @el patron Hello, It is certain that these methods can work, but I wanted to work on a clean and stable environment without having to tweak to set up normally native solutions. in any case, thank you for your comments and possible solutions Have a good day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
