This might be related to a known bug, when the user changes the default language en to another locale, system will crash.
@marktopper remember this? we need to write that command in order to fix this :)

@EngHazem is your site working with translations, or it fails when you try to update a post?
Check for the translations table, you should see records for locale="en", and the ar translations should be located in the post table. If your system is different, then you are being affected by this bug.

If your issue is related to this, you may try the following:

1. set laravel default locale to ar.
2. make sure ar locale is saved at post table, and the en in translations.

@akazorg
I tested it and what happened is that only the body field is inserted to translations table with locale en and empty value, but no records add for other translatable records like title, .... etc

Please check this code I edited in the edit-add template to solve the problem of that the rich text editor is not loaded with the full HTML syntax of the body, instead it is loaded with the plain text..

    @foreach($dataTypeRows as $row)
        <div class="form-group @if($row->type == 'hidden') hidden @endif">
            <label for="name">{{ $row->display_name }}</label>
            @include('voyager::multilingual.input-hidden-bread')
            @if(isset($dataTypeContent->id) && $row->type == 'rich_text_box')
                <textarea class="richTextBox" name="{{$row->field}}"
                          style="border:0px;">@if(isset($dataTypeContent->{$row->field})){{ $dataTypeContent->{$row->field} }}@endif</textarea>
            @else
                {!! app('voyager')->formField($row, $dataType, $dataTypeContent) !!}
                @foreach (app('voyager')->afterFormFields($row, $dataType, $dataTypeContent) as $after)
                    {!! $after->handle($row, $dataType, $dataTypeContent) !!}
                @endforeach
            @endif
        </div>
    @endforeach

instead of ..

    @foreach($dataTypeRows as $row)
        <div class="form-group @if($row->type == 'hidden') hidden @endif">
            <label for="name">{{ $row->display_name }}</label>
            @include('voyager::multilingual.input-hidden-bread')
            {!! app('voyager')->formField($row, $dataType, $dataTypeContent) !!}
            @foreach (app('voyager')->afterFormFields($row, $dataType, $dataTypeContent) as $after)
                {!! $after->handle($row, $dataType, $dataTypeContent) !!}
            @endforeach
        </div>
    @endforeach

could this be related to the problem ?

I can reproduce the bug of the rich-text loosing the html. I will fix this later.

Your issue, however, seams to be related to the bug I described before.
Text me on slack, we will figure out something.

@EngHazem we've been working on this, some bugs were fixed, check out Pull Requests for more info.

The html strip tags was also fixed #1019.

@marktopper is working on a command for changing the default locale. I'm sure you will need it in order to work that way.

Thanks @akazorg

I tested it and it worked.

Great men!
I hope you don't need to use + maintain a custom blade anymore.

There is a bug when you insert new records, but I've sent a PR for that.

The menu is also not working well on insert, but there's a fix in progress. I'll leave the translations fully working, bug free!! (hopefully xD).
