Multilanguage: different pages query based on language

[manlio]

I'm developing my first multilanguage website (italian and english).

Till this time everything is good, but I have only a problem.

I need to have "italian" courses and "international" courses that are totally different in content (so I don't need translation of the same page, but different records). I wanna show italian courses on italian website and international courses on english website.

I tried using standard (not multilanguage) fields and try to retrieve them in this way

if ($user->language == "1061") //check if set default language

{$items = $pages->find("parent=/courses/italiano/,limit=4");} //query for italian courses

else 

{$items = $pages->find("parent=courses/international/,limit=4");};//query for international courses

but this doesn't work, and no data show when I switch to english language.

Can you give some insights how to solve this problem and point me in the right direction?

Thank you!

Sorry but was only a problem related to the "active" checkbox of the language. Usually is active by default but  after importing from csv was not.
