This is kind of weird :
If I set the 'Language switcher block' to checked, and save al seems OK.
But in effect the change is not taken into consideration and when revisiting admin/settings/language/icons it stays unchecked.

in the DB, I tried to change it :
UPDATE `OURDATABASE`.`variable` SET `value` = 'i:1;' WHERE `variable`.`name` = 'languageicons_show_block';

the variable changes to i:1 , however it autoresets to i:0 as well.

Did I miss something in the documentation ?

Thanks for a great module.

I have the same problem,

It happened after I updated both Drupal and the module, if that could possibly help someone - I am completely new to Drupal so I am not sure where to go from here.

Seeing how the code defaults to "i:1", I'm not sure what is happening here.

What other modules are enabled? Did you try setting the variable and then clearing caches (both Drupal's and your browser's)?

Hm. "Language switcher dropdown" is known to interfere with Language icons. What's the behaviour if you disable that?

Thanks Freso,

Appreciate your help.

I disabled it but it did not fix the problem. I have had both working together before I made the update of Drupal's core.

Freso,

I am truly sorry to have wasted your time. I am very new to this. When I changed my theme to one of the ones that ship with drupal it works.

Really sorry, hope you have not given this too much attention!

Best regards,

Chris

ehanuise, what theme are you using?

And Sleeper_Service, no worries. Glad you got it working. :)

ouch, it was a while, on a test site - I eventually dropped the module altogether and used links for lang switching.
I think it was pixture reloaded, however.

#5 is right
"Language switcher dropdown" is to blame
