You need to create complete Table View Setup and not per field:

Example:
`<!--:de--><td>de [date]</td><td><b>[title_de]</b></td><td>[description_de]</td><!--:-->
<!--:en--><td>en [date]</td><td><b>[titel_en]</b></td><td>[description_en]</td><!--:-->`

== Known Bugs ==

Plugins which will modify the standard editor, such as qtranslate are in general not compatible with this plugin.
The problem is that you cannot see the editor textfield in all view setup areas, bacause of the conflict.

qtranslate plugin is the only plugin which is supported for this plugin.
If you find a incompatible plugin, please rapport this and it will be fixed (is a 5 Min fix / plugin).
