GTranslate + IPB

[monkeyman]

I'm trying to install GTranslate on IPB, but since it's pages are dynamically generated and written on PHP, I always get an error. Can't even save IPB template with GTranslate code. The problem is in this piece of code:

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
if(jQuery.cookie('glang') && jQuery.cookie('glang') != 'ru') jQuery(function($){$('body').translate('ru', $.cookie('glang'), {toggle:true, not:'.notranslate'});});
function doGTranslate(lang_pair) {if(lang_pair.value)lang_pair=lang_pair.value;var lang=lang_pair.split('|')[1];jQuery.cookie('glang', lang, {path: '/'});jQuery(function($){$('body').translate('ru', lang, {toggle:true, not:'.notranslate'});});}
//]]>

And I'm pretty much sure it's due to $ presence. IPB parser thinks it's PHP and tries to parse it accordingly.

Any workaround for this?

I think IPB is using Smarty template engine. If that is the case you need to use {literal} as described on http://edo.webmaster.am/gtranslate-widget

As far as I know, they use their own engine, not Smarty one. But anyway I tried inserting {literal} tags - didn't work. Still got this message: "There is a syntax error in the template, usually caused by PHP code not properly formed. Please correct the error and hit save again."

Please write on their forum to find out how you can insert javascript code and not cause issues in the template syntax. I cannot change the code to be valid for their template engine.

Oh, OK, good advice. I should've guessed that myself.

I asked IPB support and they pointed me on pieces of code like this {$('body'), saying, I should try putting space before $. I did this way in couple places and template saved without any errors. But now I have another problem. When I click any flag, I get this error: "jQuery.cookie is not a function" (looked for it in Firebug).

Could you help with that?

[monkeyman]

OK, I found the solution myself. Some stupid hook (plugin) was interrupting GTranslate. I just disabled it and it all works fine now.

[Edvard]

Good! Probably it was a jQuery library conflict.
