After creating a multi-language New Item, French version is no longer editable

[jcraigk]

Let's say I have EN, FR, and DE setup as my locales. I can create all 3 translations just fine. However, if I go to edit the French version, upon Save I get

ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound (Couldn't find Refinery::News::Item with id=[slug])

I've tried changing order of locales as well as adding/removing French and other locales and it always has to do with French only. Even if French version contains no French-specific characters.

Why is ActiveRecord looking up the French News Items as id=[slug]?

I added a hack in my main Rails app to fix this. In /app/decorators/controllers/refinery/news/admin/items_controller_decorator.rb:

Refinery::News::Admin::ItemsController.class_eval do

  # Fix for "Couldn't find Refinery::News::Item with id=[slug]"
  # when editing certain translated news items (usually French)
  def find_item
    begin
      @item = Refinery::News::Item.find(params[:id])
    rescue
      @item = Refinery::News::Item.find(Refinery::News::Item::Translation.find_by_slug(params[:id]).refinery_news_item_id)
    end
  end

end
