    multilingual setup is not working

    Hi,

    Even if I set this following configuration

    <useDomainPrefixes>true</useDomainPrefixes>

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

     

    My multilingual site in our server is not working. I can only access the pages in other languages if I make it unique (e.g. I add the language code on the page)

    Hi Sherry-Ann,

    I am not 100% sure, but I think it picks the first matching page no matter what, except if you create relations between the pages. In any case, would it not be better anyway for SEO purpose that your pages have names in the corresponding language? Or is there a specific reason why you want to use the same page names in all languages?

    Cheers,

    Michael

    The 2nd level node is now working when I changed in my url rewriting. The problem is the 3rd level nodes because it does not pick up the hostname and language that I set.

    The only difference with the 3rd level node is I setup a umbracoUrlName and umbracoUrlAlias. Why is it not working with multilingual site?

    The hostname thing is a known bug in umbraco: http://our.umbraco.org/forum/using/ui-questions/3502-Problem-with-useDomainPrefixes---no-unique-URL-starting-with-3rd-level it could be that the language issue is related?

    I'm not sure if this is still an issue in 4.6.x. What version of Umbraco are you using?

    Update: I've had a look at codeplex, and it looks like that issue was fixed from 4.1 onwards if that helps?

    i'm using the 4.6

    Do I really need to include the root node in the umbracoUrlAlias. Currently it is set to dubai-flora-grand-hotel but then to make it unique to each language node I was thinking of using /en/dubai-flora-grand-hotel. Hopefully, it will work. :D
