Changing default language of the translated website
« on: February 26, 2014, 10:29:25 pm »

Since multiple domains aren't supported well by Joomla, I've created copies of my website - one for each language, put them into separate folders and made the domains point directly to them. For example domain.fr is pointing to folder /site/french and domain.es is pointing to /site/spanish.

I was hoping that this would end my suffering with this webpage, if I now only change the default language in Joomla settings for each one of the instalations. For example in the page domain.es I choose the default site language to be Spanish hoping that now when I enter the site it would take me to domain.com/es. But unfortunatelly it doesn't work. When I enter the site, the address changes to domain.com/pl (polish was the primary default language of the site).

Is there some way to go around that?

Joomla uses the browser default language. You could remove the language tag in the language plugin.
