Linking Languages with Menu items
« on: January 10, 2014, 11:35:52 pm »
I created a new menu item called English and linked it to index.php/en but when you click on it on the front page it browses to index.php/en/en generating an error. The Jdiction module works alright. What value should I put in the Link parameter to avoid this URL confusion.

Thanks

You could use the module (jd_languageswitcher)

normally if the menu item is a link it maybe have to be an absolute link, but I'm not sure.

What happens if you call the url /index.php/en in the browser? does it work?

Hi, let's say if the site is on URL/index.php/en and you call URL/index.php/en, the result is URL/index.php/en/en.

How do I use jd_languageswitcher in a menu item?

Thanks

this could be a problem with the accesslevel in the content language

admin->languages->content->edit language->save language

this could solve the problem.
