    Will it work with a custom content finder?

    Hi!

    I'm working on a 1:1-land site that uses a ContentFinder similar to this one: https://github.com/jbreuer/1-1-multilingual-example/blob/master/Sources/Umbraco.Extensions/ContentFinders/MultilingualContentFinder.cs

    Would SEO Checker work with a content finder like this where one page shared the same node/id but has different urls depending on lang?

    Hi Markus,

    Haven't tested this but it needs the context of the page so I am not sure. Only one way to find out Markus :)

    Best,

    Richard

    This probably won't work. For example the SEO Checker datatype tries to check the current page, but it doesn't know what culture it should use.

    Also SEO Checker redirects probably won't work because the URL could be different per language and SEO Checker doesn't know what it should redirect too. The redirects that are part of Umbraco 7.5 have the same issue.

    That's what I was thinking as well =/

    Have you seen any other solution to this? How are you doing it?

    There is no other solution for this. Currently I just don't use SEO Checker on projects that use a content finder. The content editors need to manually add redirects if they want to rename something.

    I see, how would you let them do this? Using the build in stuff in core of 7.5 or any package?

    Or did you build your own thing?

    You could still use SEO Checker for that. It has management for redirects. Just don't use the SEO datatype or try anything else with it.

    Sweet!

    Have you tried it with your 1:1-multi lang thing and Vorto?

    Datatype will not work with Vorto. It needs the context of the page.

    Cheers,

    Hi!

    Thank you all for your help and feedback! Soo to summaries the current state.

    Data Type:

    As Richard said the data type will not work inside Vorto but it will work “on its own” but in this case you almost certainly want different title and meta description for the different language-versions.

    404s:

    Works nice since you can set different 404s for different languages with SEO Checker.

    Redirects:

    Works but it has some limitations. If a URL ends up in the “Inbound link errors”-list you can either choose a content node to redirect to or enter a hard coded URL. The redirect will not care about the language-version of the site since both live on the same “domain” or share the same root node.

    Let’s say I have a broken inbound link for mysite.se/test/test, this will be added a missing link for the relative url /test/test, when hitting mysite.se/test/test the new url will resolve to the Swedish url and when going to mysite.com/test/test it will resolve to the English version thanks to the current language for the hostname that is visited.

    But if you would like to redirect to different nodes depending on the language of the request there is no way to do this as far as I understand?

    Hi Markus,

    Summary is correct and for your redirect question.In SEOChecker you can specify that it needs to include the Top level domain to lookup relative paths. See general config settings.

    Then you can redirect to different pages based on the top level domain.

    Hope this helps,

    Richard
