The first tier of the hierarchy is not translated for taxonomy term reference fields when taxonomy is translated via Entity Tran

Moving to the Entity Translation issue queue to gather feedback from their maintainers; please move it back once you've answered it.

Q: How does the Entity Translation deal with Taxonomy term translations compared to the i18n modules?

Well, ET basically use core field langauge support to provide a different value per language for each field attached to a term (see http://drupal.org/node/1500308 for some more general info). The Title module offers the ability to replace a plain property with a field, thus making it translatable. In the case described in the OP there is a name_field replacing the taxonomy name. i18n_taxonomy instead exploits i18n_string to translate the name and description properties.

Moving back as requested.

Here is a patch that should fix this

New patch, because the last one caused a bug on the taxonomy edit form.

add info about title module

Has anyone ever encountered issues as following?

In French content creation page, the hierarchy term reference field shows the French version term label correctly, but after choose on term and click "Add", original version term label (e.g. English term label) displayed under "All selections" area.

This seems to be the same as in #2252949: Untranslated root level terms. But that fix is straight.

Using single entity load (taxonomy_term_load()) for each term is too expensive. What I did in #2252949: Untranslated root level terms is that I loaded all terms once.

Can you try that fix and see if fit?

guillaumev's patch 6 causes the same error on term edit form as the number 5 one.
It also doens't fix the issue.

claudiu.cristea's patch that can be found at https://www.drupal.org/node/2252949 works.

@stijndmd, if you tested #2252949: Untranslated root level terms and that works for you, why not set that to RTBC? :)

Given the time that has passed and the claim that it has been fixed by the patch on issue #2252949 I'm closing this as outdated. If this is still an issue please reopen and update the description with detailed steps to reproduce.

child term is still not translated

patch #5 after manual patching, it works

Hi everyone,

I had the same issue as @proweb.ua in #12. After applying the patch #6 manually, it works for me but I still have the issue in the term reference fields in node edit forms. Does this happen to anyone else?

Anyway, I have updated the patch to adapt it to the latest dev release of the module. It is also compatible with the latest stable version of the module (7.x-3.0-beta9).

I just updated the patch file to solve some issues with code indents.
