Hi there!

I got a problem. I did all the settings, but unfortunately the language switcher is not shown. If I change the URL manualy to a different language, it works.
I tried it in different positions in the template.

Any idea what is wrong?

I installed it on a j 3.6.3

Best regards,

Guy

Hi Guy,

Did it work prior to J 3.6.3?

I have heard reports of problems with multi-language but nothing confirmed

Cheers

Hi Guy

If this is a new project/site it sounds like a set up issue hiding the switcher, they can fussy in setup.

We run numerous multi language sites and have not seen any issues on updating to 3.6.2, or php 7. We started updating to 3.6.3 and again no issues to date but not extensively updated across sites as we halted pending 3.6.4 release next Tuesday which looks like being a busy day in the office!

Yes indeed

Hi Ian and Paul,

thanks for the reply! All our site in Luxembourg are multilanguage, and we have around 70 sites running.. So this is the first time it does not work correctly.
And if it would be a setup error, why can I change the language by changing the URL

Try it yourself..

vet.design4you.lu/fr/
vet.design4you.lu/de


I will try to upload and install the full package as I can download it, and install all as it is..

Maybe then it will work.

Best regards,

Guy

Hi Guy

It is odd that the language module does not show in the code (which why you asked of course!!!), so difficult to debug by just looking at the frontend, so maybe support need to help you via a ticket.

You could check the module is shown in a active position on the template, that is the template design has not switched that position off. Then check it is enabled for all languages etc.

Check associations of items is still correct within Joomla, this has caused me issue in the past.

Check any SEF plugins are not giving false output and cache is clear.

One thing that is different to our usual setup of multi language is there appears to not be a default language. Both the url's you provide have /fr and /de, the country codes. On our setup we would have a base language with no country code as an entry point, then switch to the other language and the direct association would add the country code. It may be worth checking something has not gone astray here or got missed as I notice it is applied to JB quickstart rather than a fresh install.

Sorry I cannot help pin point the issue but hope the above may help in some way.

Hi Ian,

thanks for the reply, I already did try it in different positions.
The default language is /en, which comes if you just enter the domain name.
I will open a ticket. All the rest I already did check..

Many thanks and best regards,

Guy

Hi Guy,

I can't seem to see it on the system
