News Record translated

Problem:

When i visit the page on language UID 1 the news record itself is translated (For example headline). In the Detail view we render the content element. This is always shown in the default language

The Problem could be fixed by switching sys_language_overlay from 0 to 1

config {
    sys_language_mode = content_fallback
    sys_language_overlay = 1
}

To prevent that the content elements are hidden by default you could also set

TCEMAIN.table.tt_content {
    disablePrependAtCopy = 1
    disableHideAtCopy = 1
}

I had the same issue some time ago: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40550695/typo3-how-can-i-translate-content-elements-within-articles-for-news. But it could leads to some trouble too, for example if you load your footer data of the news detail page with typoscript, like:. Then sys_language_overlay = 1 will cause that the default footer data is loaded, but not the translated footer data. In my case I had to add the sys_language_uid to my dynamic content helper. – Fox Aug 09 '18 at 13:07
So if you use content objects for rendering (https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/TyposcriptReference/ContentObjects/Content/Index.html) and enable sys_lanugage_overlay = 1, then you have to be aware that you also add sys_language_uid clause to the content object rendering. – Fox Aug 09 '18 at 13:32
