I think it would be nice if a user with access to only one language is able to translate content from the original language. This could be done with a Translate link in the content overview table operations column.

I.e if I only have admin access to French content, I should be able to translate from the original language to French.

I can take a look and write a patch, but interested to know what you/others think.

I found something out..
There is an issue with an if statement (see the uploaded image). I couldn't figure out the reason so far but I will look at it if I find some time for.

For now I solved the problem for my own with deleting the line with the if statement. It's actually only a test system where I'm working with the module. I recommend not to use this "fix" at a productive system. Because I can't say all effects so far.

I'm having this issue with the D7 version of the module. However, the screenshot attached to #1 shows code from the D6 version, and is therefore a red herring.

In short:

  • If I enable one language (DE) for my translator user, they can't edit or add any translations.
  • If I add the source language (EN) for the content on the site, they can then add and edit any translation, including languages that have not been enabled on their user account.

So... either I'm doing it wrong, or this module doesn't work.
