    multilanguage site with duplicate page names

    Hi,

    Anyone faced the problem, where your multilanguage site had duplicate page names, for instance:

    -en
    .. software

    - nl
    .. software

    The navigation in my multilingual website returns in both cases the url:

    www.mysite.com/software.aspx

    while it should return:

    www.mysite.com/en/software.aspx

    or

    www.mysite.com/nl/software.aspx

    How did you tackle this problem?

    Thanks for your advice

    I'm not clear on all the details, but here's how I do this in one 7 language site I manage:

    Each language's content is in its own branch, i.e. in the content pane,

    en
    1.aspx
    2.aspx
    3.aspx

    es
    1.aspx
    2.aspx
    3.aspx

    and the "manage hostnames" per branch is set accordingly, i.e.,

    en ← widgets.com/en
    es ← widgets.com/es

    hth; Kyle

    Hi Kyle,

    I'll try out your example, and let you know if it worked for me.

    Thanks for your advice,

    Anthony

    Hi Anthony

    You might want to check the web.config out as well. Find this:

    <add key="umbracoHideTopLevelNodeFromPath" value="true" />

    and change it to this:

    <add key="umbracoHideTopLevelNodeFromPath" value="false" />

    This should tell Umbraco NOT to hide the top level node from the URL.

    i'm also having an issue with this one. Even if I set the hostname accordingly it is still not displaying my pages properly.

     

    My config is as follows (Please note that we are still using the ip address because this is for testing purpose.)

     en -> 208.75.250.78

        page1.aspx

        page2.aspx

     

    ar -> 208.75.250.78/ar

        page1.aspx

        page2.aspx

     

    This setup is working on my local machine. I followed the example in the other forum post to set en.local/ar.local but when I uploaded it our server and change the hostname. that's the time we encounter the problem.

    I've been trying to fix this for 4 days now and would really need some help. I also e-mail umbraco (we have umbraco pro license) but I haven't got any detailed answer from them.
