Language in URL

Post by jsmoove » Mon Jul 02, 2012 2:17 am

Hi,

This question has been asked many times, and there has been many answers to it as well. I'm trying to load a different language than the default through URL, but it is not working. I tested both the URLs below at my site and failed to change:
http://www.365print.hk/index.php?language=en
http://www.365print.hk/index.php?language=english

I'm using 1.5.2.1 FYI.

Thanks in advance,
J

Hey Jay,

What is the difference with your two mods?
http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... on_id=3550
http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... on_id=6424

For your Multi-language SEO, would it affect my previous settings for my SEO URLs?

Thanks,
J

Hi J

The first will affect all URL's for product, categories, manufacturers and information pages as it auto rewrites them.
The second will simply add the language two letter prefix to your URL's, such as /en/ and /de/ and will switch to the correct language. For example, if someone clicks on a link say with /de/ and the language is currently English, it switches to German

Kind regards
Jay

Nothing other than adding the /en/ or /de/ to the URL

Hi Thom

I'm actually planning on making a bundle deal of all the above pretty much, I've just not had a chance yet. I will over the next few days with any luck

Kind regards
Jay

I am using the Super Seo Multilingual and Friendly urls free extension. It once worked and no problem change the language between two. Unfortunately, after I disabled the second language, it wouldn't work again. The url will go to blank page. I don't know how to solve this.
