Hi Pascal,

installed new version CRE8 Social 5.1.5 there is some issus with Stackideas Tool bar menus routing you get a 404 erro when clicking on them going back a second time first go a click on some of them and they work and then go back and click second time on some you click before and you got 404 error.

Working for normal menus ie Groups, Pages, Members (People), etc but not for Stackideas Toolbar then you got the 404 error "Page not found".

I clean the social urls etc nothing helps.. Seems Stackideas Toolbars do something with the router there so it now working.

Example Events

This doesnt work coming from Stackideas Toolbar Events ( Members Events/Meetings): --->  https://www.whattodo.com/en/what-to-do-mote-o-events

Example this works main menu Events ( Members events meetings ) : ---->  https://www.whattodo.com/en/videos-groups-blogs/members-events-meetings

Login and start clicking in Stackideas Toolbar going back again to Stackideas Toolbars menus there and then you see the problem you got a 404 error for these menus. See toobar menu below same problem for english and swedish toolbar menu

ok thks Pascal.. no worry

Using Joomla ACL controls to require user registration for viewing content—such as user-generated posts across various topics—is a sophisticated setup. It creates an incentive to sign up, as not all content is accessible without membership. That is why Joomla utilizes hidden menus. So maybe I have to go back to make it all open and if you dont have users it look very empty in the beginning... 

So I have to test a bit more here and come up with a solution that works with Joomla, CRe8 Social and what I want to achieve here.. 😁

Pascal so what I found out is that Stackideas Toolbar pick up the wrong langauge files actually the opposite for each language and therefore create the wrong url for the menus in Stackideas Toolbar when you go back and click on them. 

Example when clicking on Stackideas Toolbar Events in this case for the english toolbar menu it become = https://www.whattodo.com/en/what-to-do-mote-o-events where the end there is for swedish menu url translation ie what-to-do-mote-o-events and if you go to the swedish similar one you got the opposite the english one! ---> ie https://www.whattodo.com/sv/what-to-do-meetings-and-events where the last part of the url is english wrong one for swedish ie what-to-do-meetings-and-events

So this is a bug Pascal and maybe not all the menus is redirected in the wrong language url routing but some of them are unfortunately. And thats why the hidden menus for register/public doesnt work too then...

what you think? 

Hi Pascal,

I have to test this a bit more really bcs this is strange and yes what I want to do is to show certain EasySocial features like videos, pages, ads, groups to public views by Joomla standard menus ( top menu ) but then also have the Stackideas Toolbar restricted for only logged in users Registered. So some of the Stackideas Toolbar menus are restricted to only registered users.

So this worked before but guess not for the latest 2 updates of CRE8 Social maybe.

For example here I test and remove all the Joomla CRE8 Socials Video menus and only have Stackideas Toolbar controling the video menu. All other Joomla menus for CRE8 Social videos is disabled. 

And then this is how Swedish videos url look like when clicking on Videos Stackideas Toolbar for Videos swedish & english ( with all .htaccess etc Joomla correct settings)

1. https://www.whattodo.com/sv/component/easysocial/filmer?Itemid=

2. https://www.whattodo.com/en/what-to-do-videos-eng

The second one is for English language first swedish.

For me its look like some of these Stackideas Toolbars menus are not working correctly in the toolbar itself & also pick up the wrong urls Swedish urls for english sometimes there. Some work correctly and some not. 

FYI. Also when trying to do a language Association for the mod_stackideas_toolbar it only shows English module in the popup to make a assocition to this module. It should show all the Swedish modules there instead of the English ones. *** So this seems to be an important bug there. Maybe this have some effect on this?

Ok lets think a bit no worry

Hi Pascal after testing and doing a lot I am sure there is a coding error in Stackideas Toolbar. The toolbar switch english to swedish url and swedish to english urls for same type of Stackideas Toolbar menus there.

See image example you can test by loggin and test swedish/english version of the toolbar menus and then copy them to the other language and it works b u t Stackideas toolbar choose the wrong one(s) there!

"Here work and should be https://www.whattodo.com/sv/what-to-do-foton that is correct Swedish but show the English version instead ie https://www.whattodo.com/sv/what-to-do-photos This is for 80% of these menus there in the Toolbar Pascal so thats the problem --> The Stackideas Toolbar handling the router urls for language translations"

Ok Pascal, can you do this and test this.

1. Go to https://www.whattodo.com/sv/what-to-do-foton and login. You will come to the business dashboard first.

2. Click on CRE8 Toolbar menu there "Fotoalbums" and you see it working there coming to --> https://www.whattodo.com/sv/what-to-do-foton .

3. Click on CRE8 Toolbar "Grupper" you will see its also working.

4. Now the problem. Click again on CRe8 Toolbar "Fotoalbums" you got an error 404 black page --> https://www.whattodo.com/sv/what-to-do-photos.

CRE8 Toolbar shows this url instead: https://www.whattodo.com/sv/what-to-do-photos taking the english url part /what-to-do-photos instead of the correct swedish /what-to-do-foton 

**** So CRE8 Toolbar have issues using swedish urls and take the english ones instead and vice versa also for english/swedish. if you do a lot of testing here with english/swedish and swedish/english toolbar menus clicking! 

If CRE8 Toolbar could use the correct langauge version it works! So this is an issue with CRE8 Toolbar router. CRE8 Toolbar pickup the wrong langauges urls to the Toolbar menus.

Whats interesting is i f you click on the CRE8 Toolbar home icon first all other menus you click on then working :)

Hi Pascal did you test this and see it pick up the english version for swedish url and for swedish version it pick up the english url there if you do some different clicking on Toolbar menus after login. So the Toolbar can handled different language urls there correctly. It take the wrong ones after reloading..

Hi Pascal glad that you also find out this problem. So working now but now only one last issue there with the CRE8 Social Toolbar.

Pls login front English version from start and click on Toolbars "Videos" menu. You get a permission error there:

"You don't have permission to access this. Please contact a website administrator if this is incorrect."

You can go to swedish then and click on Videos Toolbar menu it works. If you click on the language icon flag on site for English it works then also so the associations works.

But if you go back and click on Toolbars Icon and then click on videos you have the same error message again. So only this Toolbar menu have this issue now ----> "Videos"

Hi Pascal after long time I found the issue bcs I could create a new menu and deleted the old All videos menu for the hidden menus I have and are public. I change back the front end menu to Gues and now all works as I want it to be so closing this finally :)

Thks for cooperation to fix this now it works great!
