I have 4 languages installed - english, italian, german and french.

I am having some issues with the drupal cache (anonymous user).

I am switching by hostnames. When I click on the german flag which goes to the german domain, the menus are not translated until I get to a page that has a german translation (most pages are in English). The menus change back to English when I go to a non translated page, even though the domain is still the german domain.

Then, if I go back to English and go to a page that has a german translation, the content shows English but the menus turn german. If I delete that english page from the cache_page, the menus go back to English.

What is going on here?

Here is a modified email thread that I had with Roberto (localizer module developer). This might be useful to people who are having similar problems.

-----------------------------
Could you try to empty completely the cache and try again ?
Can also you test which cid is used in the cache tables ?

This is the technique I use :

Roberto
-----------------------------

I have cleared all of the cache tables. Hopefully that will clear things up.

I am having another problem too that is related to permissions for the anonymous users. When I click on the flag that takes me to the French domain, it doesn't translate.

What are the ideal permissions for anonymous users?

Deborah
-----------------------------

This only for anonymous users, right ?
Can you make a test and disable the cache ?

Roberto
-----------------------------

Yes, this problem is only with the anonymous users.

I tested with caching turned off and everything worked fine. Unfortunately I cannot keep the caching off. Is there a way around this?

I have attached a screenshot (Localizer_Fuzetto_1217518006166.png).

So, definitely it is the cache ...
The init hook is responsible for language change.

Run this SQL code on you db :
UPDATE system SET weight = -10 WHERE name = 'localizer'

It simply set the priority in calling localizer module, nothing of dangerous.

Roberto
-----------------------------

That didn't seem to do anything. What did work was putting the home page (/) in the cache exclude.

Why do you think this is happening? Can you explain this?

Deborah

How is built the front page ?
Using panels and views ?

Roberto
-----------------------------

Our front page is a node that calls 2 views within it.
