Description

When I point an itemlist on a multilingual text field from another tracker, It does not show anything.
Doing the same on a non-multilingual tracker works fine.

See both in a show instance.

Solution

I have added more information on the ItemsList field setup with commits 63930 (17.x) and 63931 (trunk). The solution is this: when you have ItemLink field in Value Field ID dropdown, keep Link Field ID empty. The reason is this: if you fill in both fields - ItemsList tries to find the item comparing field values which does not always work. In this case, the multilingual field's value contains more than the single language value. We had other use-cases like Dynamic Items List field where the values again did not match. I solved this recently by inspecting Value Field ID and if it is an ItemLink, we don't need to do any value matching - it already points to the right item in the other tracker, so we use it.


I tried it and it's exactly as you say.
Also, the new message makes sense. I believe I would have understood it and not have wasted so much time if I had seen the new message.

Please demonstrate your bug on show2.tiki.org
 About show2.tiki.org

To help developers solve the bug, we kindly request that you demonstrate your bug on a show2.tiki.org instance. To start, simply select a version and click on "Create show2.tiki.org instance". Once the instance is ready (in a minute or two), as indicated in the status window below, you can then access that instance, login (the initial admin username/password is "admin") and configure the Tiki to demonstrate your bug. Priority will be given to bugs that have been demonstrated on show2.tiki.org.

 Accessing the Tiki instance that demonstrates this bug

The URL for the show.tikiwiki.org instance that demonstrates this bug is at: http://jyhem-9952-6448.show.tikiwiki.org. Note that if you get a popup asking for a username/password, please just enter "show" and "show". This is different from the initial login and password for a new Tiki which is "admin" and "admin".

For the install log, see http://jyhem-9952-6448.show.tikiwiki.org/info.txt

Note that if you see PHP errors or a Tiki claiming to be missing third party software, the instance creation is probably not finished. Please wait a couple minutes and reload.

 Snapshots

Snapshots are database dumps of the configuration that developers can download for debugging. Once you have reproduced your bug on the show.tikiwiki.org instance, create a snapshot that can then be downloaded by developers for further investigation.

Snapshots can be accessed at: http://jyhem-9952-6448.show.tikiwiki.org/snapshots/. Note that if you get a popup asking for a username/password, please just enter "show" and "show".
