Sorry. No data so far.

Resolved

(@tickpdm)

Hi,

first of all thanks for the great plugin. Basically, it works brilliantly. However, I have problems on the side of another language. My site is multilingual. The plugin works on the German side, on the English side the error message appears that no data is available. What am I doing wrong?

This is my code, which I use on the category pages:

	<?php
$args = array(
	
      'header' => 'Top Ten ',
      'header_start' => '<h3>',
      'header_end' => '</h3>',
	  'limit' => 10,
   	 'thumbnail_width' => 100,
      'thumbnail_height' => 75,
	  'excerpt_length' => 600,
	  'range' => 'all',
	  'order_by' => 'views',
	  'cat' => $cat_id,
	  'stats_category' => 1,
	  'wpp_start' => '<div class="category-description">',
      'wpp_end' => '</div>',
	  'post_html' => '<br><h4><a href="{url}">{text_title} {stats}</h4> <p>{excerpt}</p><br><br></a>',
    	
);
wpp_get_mostpopular($args);
?>

I determine the category ID as follows:

$categories = get_category( get_query_var( 'cat' ) );
$category_name = $categories->name;
$category_description = $categories->category_description;
$cat_id = $categories->cat_ID;

I hope you can help me and sorry for the bad english.

Hi @tickpdm,

Well, either WPP can’t find popular Posts under the “Italy” category, or this, or a combination of both.

Hi, thanks for the reply. But there are posts in Italy / Rome available. Why does he only recognize them for the German translation?

You can also see them in the blog under the category description .

Yes, I know that there are posts under the Italy category. I checked your website before replying 😛

What I meant to say before is that the issue is most likely the category filter. WPP can’t find popular posts under that category ID, hence the reason why you get that “no data” message.

As to why it happens, can’t say without more details. What plugin are you using to translate your posts?

Alright, please give this a shot:
```
$categories = get_category( get_query_var( 'cat' ) );
$category_name = $categories->name;
$category_description = $categories->category_description;
$cat_id = $categories->cat_ID;

$default_language = pll_default_language();
$terms_translations = pll_get_term_translations($cat_id);

if ( $cat_id != $terms_translations[$default_language] )
	$cat_id = $terms_translations[$default_language];

$args = array(
	'header' => 'Top Ten ',
	'header_start' => '<h3>',
	'header_end' => '</h3>',
	'limit' => 10,
	'thumbnail_width' => 100,
	'thumbnail_height' => 75,
	'excerpt_length' => 600,
	'range' => 'all',
	'order_by' => 'views',
	'cat' => $cat_id,
	'stats_category' => 1,
	'wpp_start' => '<div class="category-description">',
	'wpp_end' => '</div>',
	'post_html' => '<br><h4><a href="{url}">{text_title} {stats}</h4> <p>{excerpt}</p><br><br></a>',
);
wpp_get_mostpopular($args);
```
