I18N taxonomy compatibility issue - blank name

Same thing happening for me. Tried upgrading to the dev release, but the same process occurs.

I've had time to look at this a little more and I've noticed that the problem only occurs when the replacement title field is translatable using entity translation; marking the field as not translatable, or disabling the entity translation module entirely makes the problem go away.

Module versions -

• entity_translation - 7.x-1.x-dev
• entity - 7.x-1.0-rc2
• title - 7.x-1.0-alpha2+5-dev

This is the state of the database after a faulty insert; I have two languages, Thai and English, with the default being English. No name gets stored in taxonomy_term_data or under the "und" langauge, but it does get stored in the "en" language. Things seem to work correctly for the description, although that has also been replaced.

mysql> select * from taxonomy_term_data where tid = 13601;

Please let me know if there is any further information I can give to assist in debugging this.

Ah, this is probably a duplicate of #1456186: Interaction of entity, entity_translation & title on entities without a language property..

See also the comments on #1376126: Fix language handling for translatable fields.

i had the same issue.

in my case, the error happened because the entity translation for taxonomy terms was -not- enabled! so make sure it is enabled!

So what can we do about it? I still have this issue with latest dev release of title and ET 7.x-1.0-beta3... When I replace the name fields, they remain empty if I go to the edit page of a taxonomy term...
Maybe a solution can be described here?
