TYPO3 FAL images for translation don't work with tx_news (language)


I am working with TYPO3 CMS 6.2.14 and tx_news (news georg ringer) 3.1.0. My Website has two languages, german (L=0) and english (L=1).

Now I tried to translate a tx_news data record by clicking the british flag, so I'll have a 1:1-copy of the data record. Everything is fine. I can translate my text content - great! tx news records german english

But what's about my images? My english data record only showing the german picture! I can upload new 'english images', but they won't be shown in Frontend. Only the german picture from the news data record.

This must be a massive problem in TYPO3 or tx_news? I don't know? https://forge.typo3.org/issues/57021

https://forge.typo3.org/issues/57272

But there's no solution for me at all. How can I use different FAL images or videos in two different data records from tx_news?

This is my TypoScript-Setup:

...
### not in use ## sys_language_mode = content_fallback
sys_language_overlay = 1
....

Solution

  • Actually the core bug is still there (TYPO3 7.6 & 8.7). You can use the extension repair_translation to fix the translation handling with FAL objects.
