Empty Email Templates in not english languages

[vlilloh]

Hi,

I just make a new installation of OJS 2.3.6.

For any journal, in Journal Manager -> Prepared Emails, all email templates are empty in not english languages (spanish, portuguese, ...). However, the translated texts themselves are in the table 'email_templates_default_data'. Does OJS is not reading properly this table?

It also happens to me in a OJS 2.3.5 installation in a different server.

Cheers.

Hi Vicente,

Do you have anything in those languages' locale/xx_XX/emailTemplates.xml files? That is actually where the templates in the database are loaded from originally. But it is strange that nothing is showing up, as these languages should be included in the versions you are using.

Cheers,
James

Hi James,

Yes, everything is ok in "locale/xx_XX/emailTemplates.xml" files. In the table "email_templates_default_data" everything is ok too.

But the strange thing is that nothing is showing up in Journal Manager -> Prepared Emails -> Any Email Template, in not english languages

By default, information in Journal Manager -> Prepared Emails -> Any Email Template is captured from "email_templates_default_data" table?

Custom information in Journal Manager -> Prepared Emails -> Any Email Template is captured correctly from "email_templates_data" for any language.

Thanks,
Cheers.

Hi Vicente,

This is working fine on my end -- Perhaps some of your custom work is interfering with the email management code? When you edit an email template, it should copy that email template, for *every* language in the system (not just languages you are using, but every possible language supported by OJS) into the email_templates_data table.

If you don't think this has anything to do with customized code -- What are your language settings for your site and your journal? And, are you seeing anything in your error long when you save an edited email template?

Cheers,
Matt

Hi Vicente et. al,

I arrive today to the "bug" you reported.

I can confirm the same happens to me in a clean OJS 2.3.6 where we were loading and testing a new Catalan translation (it will be released soon):
http://revistes.uab.cat/ojs-traduccio

While the Custom Locale plugin shows all email templates:
http://revistes.uab.cat/ojs-traduccio/t ... edit/ca_ES

I don't see any in the "Prepared Emails" page:
http://revistes.uab.cat/traduccio/manager/emails

I reviewed xml headers to be "ca_ES" (and "Catalan").
I clean all caches, reload translation and reload plugins...

The funny part is that I can see the spanish emails (the ones that Vicente reported) without any trouble.

Vicente, if you finally found the "culprit", please, let us know.

Gracias por adelantado,
Thanks in advance,
m.

PD: PKP people or Vicente. If you want to log into this testing magazine and take a look, you just need to ask for the user/pass in a private message.

BTW, I missed to say that locale/ca_ES/emailTemplates.xml is well formed and validates:
$ xmllint --noout --valid emailTemplates.xml

More than this, every xml file is well formed and valid:
$ xmllint --noout --valid `find . -name \*.xml`

Should this issue be related with DB tables instead of xml files?

Thanks,
m.
