Can't make multiblock instance translatable

Try the dev version http://drupal.org/project/multiblock .

I also have troubling in this translation, the multi block not working and not displaying anything.

Still a problem for any blocks with custom content.

If I create a new instance of such a block and click on "Translate" it only gives me the block Title field, the Body field is not shown.

I have to same problem as described in #3.

Same problem. Subscribing.

I also have problem as #3.

you have to translate the original block, then you need to patch the module so the multi block instance will render the translation:

after line 106:
$block = module_invoke($block_info->module, 'block_'. $op, $block_info->orig_delta);

add the following line:
$block['content'] = i18n_string(array('blocks', 'block', $block_info->orig_delta, 'body'), $block['content']);

This will take care to render the proper language content.

@neddstark After adding the line I get some errors and blocks disappear:

@Jorge Navarro
did you activated the translation for original block, and translated it? the instance should display the translation afterwards.

@neddstark Please could you review the recent changes and supply a patch which can be tested, etc.

Hi,

because I went in the same issue, and could get a good result by adding this line code from comment #7 I created a patch. I hope that helps. Good for me so far

Hi,
after closer look to the default settings... and to prevent a fatal error if "i18n" not enabled.Here is a new patch which covers the normal case with no i18n.

patch created for the multilingual i18n translations

Thanks for your assistance, your patch has been committed.

This patch has broken the module as reported by #2541088: Views Exposed filter problem & #2550651: MultiBlock + Menu Block + String translation = Failure

In #12

We should translate only blocks, that are from module block (as other modules should handle translations in their own way, and to avoid running i18n_string on html output from other blocks), am I right ?

So in patch at that line:

+ if (module_exists('i18n')) {

I think we should use

+ if (module_exists('i18n') && $block['orig_module'] == 'block') {
