Hi,

"Language neutral" option only displays in a drop down menu if user is admin (1).

sorry for my poor english.

I have looked into this and I can not recreate this.
When I log in as an authenticated user I can choose 'Language neutral' for nodes that allow it.
It is of course impossible to choose 'Language neutral' for nodetypes that disable 'Language neutral'.

The problem is with 'translation access' module.
disabling this module everything works fine
I´m trying to apply this patch http://drupal.org/node/394156 but still the same problem.

thanks for your fast reply.

This problem can be solved by changing the line #9 in the Translation access module

define('I18N_ACCESS_LANGUAGE_NEUTRAL', 'NEUTRAL');

to

define('I18N_ACCESS_LANGUAGE_NEUTRAL', 'neutral');

Both modules change the blank key for the 'language neutral' value, both to the word 'neutral', but with different case. Because of this, the 'neutral' option got removed from the list.

I didn't look into this enough yet, but would this change affect current installs? Is an upgrade path required?

Title: Neutral Language only for admin user » Neutral Language only for admin user - conflict between Language select and Translation Access

I think it's a conflict between Language select and Translation Access. As I don't have Language select module I cannot reproduce it.

However, leave it here in case other people experience this too.

in D7 it should be:

define('I18N_ACCESS_LANGUAGE_NEUTRAL', 'und');

Even better, in D7 it should be:

define('I18N_ACCESS_LANGUAGE_NEUTRAL', LANGUAGE_NONE);

Great!

This solved the problem I got:
- User with "neutral" checked, couldn't edit "neutral" content already created

After this patch, it works as expected.

PS: I don't understand why this module is so little used. It's very handy.
Maybe there is another Drupal way of achieving similar behavior?

As mentioned in #7 and #8 this has to be the value of LANGUAGE_NONE (= und)
