Multilanguage blocks dont work (drupal 4.7). Error: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/asiafan.org/modules/i18n/contrib/i18nblocks.module on line 79.
They still can be created but after that they don't appear on the site if enabled and they can't be deleted any more.
(I have drupal 4.7.2, mysql 4.1.1 and php4 and a fresh install.)

I'm having the same problem as well. I wish I know php so I can fix it myself.

Title: multilingual blocks i18nblocks.module on line 79 error » How to get rid of the 79 warning message

I was able to get rid of this problem by adding the below syxtax:
if (count($module_blocks) > 0) { //--> check to make sure $module_blocks is not emptied
foreach($module_blocks as $delta => $block) {
...
...
}
}

this should do it.

Also, to get rid of the unwanted i18n blocks, I have to do the followings:
1. removed all i18n records from the blocks and the variables table
2. unchecked all of your theme default and pick an new one. Save it and then go back to your original one

If someone knows a better method please let us know.

Thanks

trantt, where did you add this syntax? and then is the module fully functional?

asiafan,

The file that you need to change is i18nblocks.module. It located under your modules\i18n\contrib\ folder
Is the module fully functional? I was able to do everything I needed and it is not much different from the privious version (4.6). Regarding to removing an existing i18n block, unless you go behind the scene, I don't think this feature was provided on this release nor the previous release. Let me know if you run into any problem

Title: modules\i18n\contrib\i18nblocks.module » syntax

Asiafan,

According to my previous post, you need to do the followings:

1. open the i18nblocks.module
2. Locate foreach($module_blocks as $delta => $block) { --> this is on line 79
3. Add if (count($module_blocks) > 0) { right above of line 79
4. Add the } bracket after the } (few lines down)

This should do it.

thanks, now i got rid of the error message...

deleting unwanted blocks also works by deleting from the sql tables but i think its not a nice way to do that and still indicates that something is wrong

and even after this fix, taxonomy blocks cannot be used in multil. blocks module, they dont display. maybe its an unrelated bug.

Title: multilanguage block cant be deleted from admin page » taxonomy's i18nblocks

Asiafan,

I was able to create taxonomy i18nblocks. Here's what I did:

1. Create a menu
2. Attach those taxonomy menu items to the new menu
3. Now include the new menu on your i18nblocks

Is this what you are looking for?

asiafan commented

im looking for these two modules to work properly and not to make complicated hacks..

but no, i wasnt looking for a "menu". first, i dont have taxonomy menu module, but nevermind. taxonomy block is not a menu block. it has teaser texts and links to new content within a given category.

it works, thank you!

now the only question remained is why the block deletion links are missing.

Title: i18n.blocks module problem fixed » delete an i18n block

why the deletion links are missing? this because it was never implemented in the first place. I don't know much about php or i18nblock module but I think this should be an easy task. I'll try to look at it when I have some time. Anyway Asiafan, can you help me on my problem http://drupal.org/node/65182#comment-136373 ?

Thanks
