I'm working on a multilingual site and there was a newsletter for each language but depending on the language, the issue creation page skipped different newsletter and different number of them. I don't know what caused the bug as I wasn't on the whole project but I found a way to fix this : by changing the weight of the newsletter. I changed them all back to 0 after and it was still listing therm all so it doesn't seem to be the cause.

I hope this might shorten someone else work around for this issue and maybe someone might find the cause and report it.

DynV, your problem and your solution are not clear to me from the description above. But I do understand that do no not need support or bug-fixing for this issue. Therefore I close this issue.

Sutharsan, you didn't closed the issue anyway wouldn't "active (need more info)" be sufficient ?

Anyway, let me show you an example:

I create a Newsletter issue then I get on the "Submit Newsletter issue" page, here's the content of the "Newsletter" drop-down box from the same page depending on what language I switch to

Language A

  • X
  • Y
  • Z

Language B

  • X
  • Y

Language C

  • X

I hope this is detailed enough ! Those newsletter were already there so I added a few test newsletters and the number missing were consistent (B:1, C:2). To resolved this I changed the weight of X, Y and Z.

DynV, you are right "active (need more info)" would have been better.
Now that I understand your situation, I can not reproduce the situation.
Which i18n modules enabled?
Is this behavior only in Simplenews?
What is the language of terms Y and Z? It should be:

All i18n and i18n - experimental was enabled. This behavior was only observed in Simplenews. The newsletter issues X Y and Z were respectively of language A, B and C (one newsletter per language).

As I previously stated, I was not on the whole project so I don't know in which order the newsletter issue and translations were made, maybe it was even mixed.

With all i18n - experimental modules enabled I can still not reproduce the error. The Taxonomy system used by Simplenews newsletter selection is standard taxonomy, no Simplenews specials. Please try to enable the Newsletter vocab for an other node type and test the behavior in this node type.

If this can help the actual languages were :

  • Arabic
  • English
  • French

If someone else experience this, I hope they know the development process.

I want to focus on 6.x to be i18n compatible. Sorry, I will not fix this in 5.x.
