I'm curious why the $show_available option is set to true for this line?

case 'post_content': $post->$key = qtranxf_use_language($lang, $txt, true); break;

Was trying to get WP to display the content under the default language if the one requested is empty. But it doesn't, and shows a line of message instead. I think it means to say that only English is available or something.

Anyway, I found that that's because $show_available is true, hence this expression isn't true.

Setting $show_available to false works, but I'm not sure about the implications.

Please, describe the original problem which you need to solve with the steps how to reproduce.

There are some contents that I want to display in the default language while leaving the others blank. In my case, I only want to enter content in English, but leave Chinese, and Japanese tabs blank.

But WP doesn't render the default language's content, when I view in Chinese or Japanese.

Looked into the code and found the findings I stated in my first post.
Alternatively without looking into the code, is there anyway I can make WP render the English content, when viewed both in Chinese or Japanese (but leave the content area for these 2 languages blank in the backend)?

Did you try using option 'Hide Untranslated Content', which, btw, was modified in the latest version on github. Would that solve what you need?

Is this the same issue: qTranslate-Team/qtranslate-x#21?
If so, it is implemented in the latest at github, for example, https://github.com/qTranslate-Team/qtranslate-x/archive/3.2.9.8.3.zip. Please, test it.

I am closing this issue for now, we can still write into a closed issue, or we can re-open it, if needed.
