Hello @ all,
I am new to Processwire and I am struggling for a while with this problem.
I have setted up a multilingual site with a language switcher. The switcher works fine except on the homepage. It seems the aliases for the different languages (German: startseite, English: home) will not be taken on the homepage.
If I switch to the other language on the homepage it doesnt work - it wil be always in German. The aliases will not be added to the homepage url so it is always the root url and this maybe causes the problem.
I found this in the explanation:
Please note that the URL for the default-language homepage is always your site's root URL, regardless of what you specify in the homepage name. This is intentional, as it's not desirable to have a homepage that produces a 404 or immediately performs a redirect to another URL. If populated, your homepage name for the default language is still applicable for the rest of the pages in your site.
But how can I switch on the homepage to another language???
Do I need the language prepend in the urls (de, en,...)?
I have searched in the forum but I couldnt find a solution to this problem.
I use the latest version of Processwire.
Can anyone point me into the right direction?
Best regards Jürgen
