Registration page language selection is empty on a single-language board

[smanst3r]

I have only one language pack installed (British English), and the default language is also set to en in the ACP.
However, on the registration page, the language selection dropdown is empty.
I believe the issue is caused by the following code in ucp_register.php:

Code: Select all

// Checking amount of available languages
		$sql = 'SELECT lang_iso, lang_local_name
			FROM ' . LANG_TABLE . '
			ORDER BY lang_english_name';
		$result = $db->sql_query($sql);
		$lang_row = (array) $db->sql_fetchrowset($result);
		$db->sql_freeresult($result);

Since I have only one language installed, count($lang_row) returns 1.
Later in the template variables:

Code: Select all

$template_vars = array(
...
'S_LANG_OPTIONS'	=> (count($lang_row) > 1) ? language_select($data['lang'], $lang_row) : '', // Here is the issue I suppose

Because count($lang_row) is 1, the S_LANG_OPTIONS variable is set to an empty string, which likely removes the dropdown from the registration page.

Is this the intended behavior? If not, what would be the best way to ensure the default language is selected properly even when there's only one language installed?

Thanks!

There is no need to select a language if there is only one in the list. That one would always be chosen.

There shouldn't be language selection available at all if you only have one language installed. Are you using Prosilver or custom style?

Thanks for the feedback. I am using prosilver Quarto Asphalt Light style

Try prosilver.

With a standard installation of one language it should look like this

That's a bug from the style you are using. It is just not up-to-date with the phpbb version.

Thank you, that should help

You can copy the "/template/ucp_register.html" file from prosilver to your style template folder, clear cache and see then how it looks.

Or if you search inside your style in the ucp_register.html file:

For: <!-- EVENT ucp_register_options_before -->

After that event the code should look like this:

Code: Select all

{% if S_LANG_OPTIONS %}
	<dl>
		<dt><label for="lang">{{ lang('LANGUAGE') ~ lang('COLON') }}</label></dt>
		<dd><select name="lang" id="lang" onchange="change_language(this.value); return false;" tabindex="6" title="{{ lang('LANGUAGE') }}">{{ S_LANG_OPTIONS }}</select></dd>
	</dl>
{% endif %}
