Hi everyone

Each time I try to edit a menu and change the ''Translation Mode'' to ''Translate and localize'' it will say ''Your configuration has been saved.'' but then it just jumps back to ''No multilingual options for menu items. Only the menu will be translatable.'' ending up with no change at all. And even the menu translation isn't showing.

I have been searching for a solution to this problem but I haven't been able to find one.
How can I get menu and menu items translation to work?

Menu translation is provided by the i18n_menu module; ET only provides integration editing menus items on node translation forms... Have you checked the I18N issue queue?

Ok the menu translation itself is working but the menu items not. The option still doesn't get saved.

Wish I knew the answer to this too! I'm having the same problem. It's hard to tell what's wrong since there's no error message either. Hope someone knows more about the problem we're having.

I'm having the same problems!! I click 'edit menu', change my translation mode (to Translate and Localize), save, and it's not saving.

Note: If I create a new menu I'm able to save changes. However, if I rename the menu or move menu items around it reverts to No Multilingual Options and I can't change it from that.

Any advice or help out there??

I have no idea why this might be happening; my guess is that some other module is interfering. I'd recommend to try and reproduce the issue on a clean install; start with only the i18n module, then add other modules until you're able to reproduce the issue.

I don't know if I was using it wrong before or if the simplified_menu_admin module was interfering, but I got it to work eventually. I think I disabled that module and noticed that it was hiding the multilingual options on the menu edit page (e.g. admin/structure/menu/manage/main-menu/edit). Then I chose the option for "Translate and Localize. Menu items with language will allow translations. Menu items without language will be localized". Then I edited each of the menu links and set the translations for them. It might have just been user-error in my case, not sure.

Now the menu that I'm using has a long list of menu-links... one set of links to the pages for each language. It seems a bit messy, if you want to translate the menu into a lot of languages... so I'm still not sure if I'm translating the menu correctly, or if there is a better way to handle menu translations.
