Version testing: 3.0.2.0
1.
When you try to edit an inserted Language Edit, on Save the form is blanked out and returns an Error "Key must be > 3 and < 64 characters.
The change is not made.
2.
If the text you are changing has line breaks (<p....</p>), you cannot put these into your replacement text, and you lose the paragraph spacing.

for eg: account/logout key: text_message:

Regarding step 1. do you notice any appearing error logs when you try to make those changes from the language editor?

Error messages... Not that I know about.

For number 1, more information would be needed. As for number 2, that is correct and also not a bug. HTML characters cannot be set in those fields when assigning your routes. Only text characters.

Thanks Straightlight.

1. I am not sure how to provide more information. Try a vanilla demo system and the problem is experienced.
I did that as soon as I found it on my test site.
When you get a fatal error on first use of something new you don't feel inclined to persue it too much. Back to the developer.

For the second problem with the inability to input or even save existing html., if you say this is not a bug then the problem has to be categorised as a serious design error. (I would prefer to have my design error called a programmig bug thanks).

You are unable to save an existing text correctly, let alone add some pleasantly formatted text.

This definitely needs attention if the Language Editor is to be functional.

I am having the same problem, OpenCart Version 3.0.2.0. Trying to edit language modifications already made leads to error. On Save all fields are cleared and I get an error telling me that fields cannot be empty.

I am having the same problem, OpenCart Version 3.0.2.0. Trying to edit language modifications already made leads to error. On Save all fields are cleared and I get an error telling me that fields cannot be empty.

I do not see the exact text in v3.0.2.0 release where it has the criteria: cannot be empty . Can you provide the exact error message please?

I am able to make a new translation string by clicking the + button on the Language Editor. I can save it and I can see the new language string on the site. But when I try to edit that text string, all fields are cleared when I save it and the error message is "Key must be between 3 and 64 characters!". It says this because that field (along with others) are now blank. I have cleared all caches, refreshed modifications numerous times, quit browser and restarted computer and still the same result.

Recent modifications were made on Github to the admin/view/template/design/translation_list.twig and translation_form.twig files. Replace these two files from:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openc ... _form.twig
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openc ... _list.twig

Clear all caches. See if that resolves the issue afterwards.

YES! That solved the problem. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

Outstanding. Other topics have now been notified about these fixes.

Thank you for your input. I had noticed the same issue when trying to edit the language files from within the Admin area. This error has now been resolved

I have this problem on 3.0.3.2

Changing the files to
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openc ... _form.twig
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openc ... _list.twig
ruined the layout.

What exactly is the change that fixes this error?

Here is the fix if anyone needs it: Language Editor FIX
