Ok, thanks for the suggestion.
I tried installing that one and all it's prerequisites, but couldn't
get it to work properly. As it was late friday night (or rather early saturday
morning) and I was a bit annoyed I did this instead:
30 = COA
30.if.isFalse.numRows {
table = pages_language_overlay
select {
pidInList.data = TSFE:id
where = sys_language_uid={$foreignLanguageID}
}
}
30.10 = TEXT
30.10 {
value = {$lang.cur}
outerWrap = <li id="{$lang.id}">|</li>
typolink {
parameter = {$missing.translation.id}
additionalParams = &L={$foreignLanguageID}
}
}
40 = COA
40.if.isTrue.numRows {
table = pages_language_overlay
select {
pidInList.data = TSFE:id
where = sys_language_uid={$foreignLanguageID}
}
}
40.10 = TEXT
40.10 {
value = {$lang.cur}
outerWrap = <li id="{$lang.id}">|</li>
typolink {
parameter.data = page:alias // TSFE:id
additionalParams = &L={$foreignLanguageID}
}
}
It can probably be shortened a bit, but basically if there is no translation
for the page it links to a not-in-menu page which says "The page you wanted
is not translated to this language, we're very, very sorry about that" or
whatever our content-people come up with. And it works for both languages, yay!
:->
Of course one could choose another type of action for the case of missing
a translation, but as the correct use of numRows and if.isFalse was the tricky
part I thought I might as well share it.
