When I translate menu item and click the 'Save translation' button, the translation is not saved. All other type of translations are saved.

Gábor HojtsyIf you look into the Translate interface admin item in Site building, does these strings appear untranslated when searched in the menu textgroup?

Some other observations in the Translate interface admin in Site building,
= I entered here several strings that I tried to translate in loc-client. Some but not all of them did work
= after refresh still some menu items were missing.
Thanks,

Gábor Hojtsy@jippie1948: if the strings did not appear in the menu textgroup, then its not a problem with the l10n_client module but rather a submodule of i18n.

jippie1948 CreditAttribution: jippie1948 commentedDear Gabor,
do I understand correctly from your response that a submodule of i18n is blocking l10n_client module to write to the translation database?

You wrote this:
This means that the strings do not even end up in the right textgroup for translation, which is outside of l10n_client's realm. Its not that anything prevents l10n_client to write to the table, its that the source data is not there, and that's not at all l10n_client's job to put it there.

Anyway, I also had this problem and fixed it by first changing the original menu item from 'language neutral' to 'english'. Once I did this, I was able to click on the translate tab and add the translated version of the menu item and it saved properly.

Gábor HojtsyYes, language neutral menu items don't have language, so they assume you don't want to translate them. That is by design.
