Disabled menu items

This piece of code works for the basic pages:

function form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id)
{
    if(preg_match('/^.*_node_form$/', $form_id))
    {
	// check if the backend language is the same as the node language         
        global $language;
        if(isset($form['#node']) && $form['#node']->type == 'page' && $language->language != $form['#node']->language)
        {
            $node = $form['#node'];
            
            //Get the list of language objects
            $languages = language_list();
            
            //Get the object and set the global $language;
            $language = $languages[$node->language];            
            
            //Redirection            
            unset($_GET['destination']);            
            drupal_goto("node/{$node->nid}/edit", array('language' => $language));            
        }
    }
}

The #2 solution works like a charm. Thanks Arnoldski.

here is a modified version. it will set the destination on the url so the user will return to the original path.

function <module>_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id) {
  if(preg_match('/^.*_node_form$/', $form_id)) {
    // check if the backend language is the same as the node language
    global $language;
    if(isset($form['#node']) && $form['#node']->type == 'page' && $language->language != $form['#node']->language) {
      $node = $form['#node'];
      
      //Get the list of language objects
      $languages = language_list();
      
      //Get the object and set the global $language;
      $language = $languages[$node->language];
      
      //Redirection
      $destination = array('destination' => $_GET['destination']);
      unset($_GET['destination']);
      drupal_goto("node/{$node->nid}/edit", array('language' => $language, 'query' => $destination));
    }
  }
}

Here's a patch I created.

see Change menu translation approach. (i18n_menu_translated_menu_link_alter() skips item subtree processing)

I tried disabled_menu_items-1905268-3.patch but it didn't work.

For language neutral all menu items become disabled.
If you're in English the opposite language menu items are all disabled.

Reverting to 7.x-1.7 fixes the issue

Hi I have similar issue.
cdnsteve can you please point me where can I get older version 7.x-1.7 of Internationalization?

or if I should use the code given above where should I put it?

Thanks,

Sure!
If you have Drush installed:
drush dl i18n-7.x-1.7

Or in zip or tar.gz format:
http://drupal.org/node/1668340

I still could not fix this issue.
Restoring to older version left all my side bar menu blocks disappeared.

While creating custom module using above code at #3 stopped site from loading node edit forms and generated error "Too many redirects".

#4 worked for me, thanks.

#4 seems to work for me as well
Thank you

Why this "issue" even exists? Is there someting I am missing about menu translation behaviour?
BTW: you could go with if(strstr($form_id, '_node_form')) instead of regex.
And also this code patch gave an error on node translation form (missing nid).

Here is the quick fix:
if(isset($node->nid) && isset($form['#node']) && $form['#node']->type == 'page' && $language->language != $form['#node']->language)

Overall thanks for sharing this, menu translation now works as expected.

with latetest version 7.x-1.10+0-dev this bug still exists. Whenever I edit a node in another language than default the menu item is disabled. total show stopper...

patch in #4 helps.

This bug still exists.

check this issue #1693074: Change menu translation approach (i18n_menu_translated_menu_link_alter() skips item subtree processing) since this one has been marked as duplicate

patch #4 works for me. Thanks.

#4 resolves the issue thank you!

Patch #4 works indeed. Thanks!

#4 it works. Thank you!

Hi,

I'm getting this issue on a correct 7.41 drupal version.
Any idea to fix it ?
