[TYPO3-english] Problem with sr_language_menu and realurl on multilingual website

[Björn Wendeler]

Hi Dave,

thanks for your hint. In my first message I forgot to paste the link to our
bootstrap.ts, so here it is:
http://www.rotorflug.com/fileadmin/lib/ts/bootstrap.ts

As you can see, I have the configuration for [globalVar = GP:L = 0] included
in the bootstrap.ts. So this cannot be the reason for this issue.

Does the language switching back and forth work on your project/page then?

Eventually there's another error in my config somewhere?!

Thanks again and in advance for any hint!

>> But when you click onto the German flag now, the URL should be

> config {
>      linkVars = L
>      sys_language_overlay = 1
>      sys_language_uid = 0
>      htmlTag_langKey = de
>      language = de
>      locale_all = de_DE
>      metaCharset = utf-8
> #    renderCharset = utf-8
> }

> [globalVar = GP:L = 0]
> config {
>      sys_language_uid = 0
>      language = de
>      locale_all = de_DE
>      htmlTag_langKey = de
> }
> 
> [globalVar = GP:L = 6]
> config {
>      sys_language_uid = 6
>      language = ar
>      locale_all = ar_AR
>      htmlTag_langKey = ar
