TOPIC: Language switch returns homepage of chosen languag

Language switch returns homepage of chosen languag 10 years, 6 months ago #44312

We are using JoomSEF for years on a old Joomla 1.5 system and does his job well. Joomfish contains all translations.

We are currently working on a migration to J2.5 and VM2. All translations are migrated and copied the settings as from old JoomSEF 3. The URL's are looking good, exactly the same as old site, in 3 languages.
Only thing, the language switch returns to homepage of chosen language, not to the translated version of current page.

I have read a lot of topics here about this issue, and I did all settings I found in those topics. But still not working.

- Use Joomla's Multilingual feature
- Use different Menu's for each language
- Default Joomla language switch module
- Disabled Joomla language plugin
- Turn on JoomSef language management
- JoomSEF plugins on top of system plugins
- Currently working on developers page: www.empmotorparts.nl/dev/

Language settings in JoomSEF
Enable JoomSef language management Yes
Language integration Include in path
Always use language? Yes
Always use language for homepage Yes
Add language to multilanguage content Yes
Get language from browser setting? Yes
Save language to cookie? Yes
Use 303 for root redirect: Yes
Menu Associations: Yes
Mismatched Itemid handling: Don't handle
Main language: Dutch (NL)
Domain configuration Default settings, nothing done with it

How can we solve this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Your settings should be correct. The main thing is to enable "Menu Associations" in JoomSEF's Configuration, which you have. Then you just need to manually set up which menus correspond to each other in different languages - navigate to Joomla's Menu Manager, edit some menu item and you should see the Menu Item Associations box on the right side. There you can set which menu item corresponds to this one in different language.
You need to set this up for all menu items.

Hi Dajo,

Thanks for your quick reply.

I made the menu assosiations and the language switch between menu items is working now.
But does not work on joomla articles and not on virtuemart pages (I installed JoomSEF Virtuemart component). These two thing does work on our old system very well by joomfish.

How can we achieve this working on our new multilingual website?

Kind regards,
Niels

Hi,

Unfortunately, as far as I know, this is not possible with Joomla's internal multilanguage system. You would need to use FaLang or JoomFish to achieve this.
