I am trying to create a multilanguage site that functions logical, while also maintaining a clean structure. What I would like to have is the following structure :
Content
+ Home [NL]
| + News Section
| - \ News Item 1
| | Separate Page
| \ Last Page
+ Home [EN]
- + News Section
- - \ News Item 1
- |Separate Page
- \ Last Page
I tried to give the Home nodes the umbracoUrlName of 'nl' and 'en', but that makes their own url nl.aspx and en.aspx. I'd like to change that to /nl/home.aspx and /en/home.aspx, but I can't get ANY umbracoUrlAlias to work on the Home nodes. It does work for the lower nodes.
Did you try to enter nl/home and en/home as umbracoUrlAlias?
umbracoUrlAlias doesn't change the url, it's just another url to getting to the page!
If you need to permanently change the url, you'd need umbracoUrlName
Also, have a play with the umbracoHideTopLevelPath settings in web.config.
thanks for taking time to look into this. Yes I entered a number of things as the umbracoUrlAlias, i.e. en/home, but also home-en and stuff like that. It doesn't work on the root nodes, but it does work on nodes below that.
I have set the umbracoHideTopLevelPath to false, because I need that to give all subnodes the language prefix. I hope that doesn't originates this problem.
I have made a couple of urlRewrite rules to rewrite the en/default.aspx to en.aspx, so I am able to reference the pages as I want now, but I still don't understand why I cannot get the urlAliases to work....:-k
umbracoUrlAlias rules! (If you get it to work :))
Hi all!

How is this possible?
Hope anyone can help...
