Eleva: Why is Multi-Lingual Setup Different/broken Compared To Normal Joomla Installation?!

Hi there,

I have built many Joomla (3, 4 and 5) Multi-lingual websites using a recommended setup by Joomla and this is the first time that it does not work as expected and that I have to do some weird setup...

And all due to the template/Helix being programmed differently then before...

WHY would you change the setup and stray away from the correct/standard Joomla recommended process?!

What it is supposed to be: 2 languages - French and English:

Main Menu (with 1 entry for Home - Default - All Languages) Home: [EN] - (Home menu & other menu entries for English Home Menu - with 1 Home entry assigned to English) Accueil: [FR] - (Home menu & other menu entries for French Home Menu - with 1 Home entry assigned to French)

Each of the above [EN] and [FR] menus would have 4-7 links depending on the website.

Obviously the standard Joomla Multi-Lingual Plugins have to be enabled...

With Eleva, to make it show/work on the FrontEnd. Main Menu (with 1 entry for Home - Default - All Languages) Top Menu - (with the Home alias in both languages and other menu entries in both languages in this menu) Home: [EN] - (Home menu for English Home Menu assigned to English) Accueil: [FR] - (Home menu for French Home Menu assigned to French)

  1. It's way more complicated
  2. It makes for more potential mistakes with menu entries not being in their own menus by language
  3. It's not following Joomla recommended structure for a multi-lingual website

;(

PLEASE fix ASAP.

Thank you,

M.

P.S.: Didn't have this problem with Wimble for example.. among others...
