I was reading forum articles on how to make SelfEdit feture work.
I allready made a correction, so that userobject is also wner (of self)

And now editing of user data works fine on my english part of site,
but on my Italian version does not work. That tamplate variable
$content_attributes is empty.

Is this a bug? My users are created only in english translation, but
even if I add Italian translation still can't edit.
(And of course I defenetly don't want to have two language
versions for users... this was just a test)

Has anybody had this problem. Can EZ-Crew help me out from this.

Thanks
Matej

Doesn't "Disable translation" (for each attribute in the user content class) do the trick?

Not sure since when this feature is available... 3.2-x I think?

I made now my own selfedit, but users in different language translations
are still problem by my opinion. Even if you use "disable translation"
option.

If you create user in Italian translation, and then try to edit user data
in English admin you can't... because english version of user object does
not exist and italian verssion has disabled editing :-)

I am also haveing problem creating content object in another language.
It always uses a global variable to set object's language... So now
I am "forced" to make italian version of user objects when cretaing
them on italian site :-) which can be a little confused when editing
them in english admin...

I've got the same problem.

I modified the site.ini to have : ContentObjectLocale=eng-GB in all my translated siteaccesses ...

Now comes another problem : I have a "after content publish" workflow when a user is edited. This workflow only runs if teh user is edited is the same language as the user was created in ... is this a bug ?

EDIT : nevermind, wrong configuration of ini files....

Uuuh actually this fixed the creation of the user problem ... but I didn't notice that now all my content is displayed in english instead of the translated language ! Please help.
