Problem with home page - multilangue

Post by fanfanmix » Sun Aug 05, 2012 2:32 am

Hi, I need a little help for some suggestions.
I have a multilingual website (4 languages). I have 1 conditions that I have not found yet a solution:

1. I want my home page to be french. When someone type for example in the address bar like: http://www.domain.org it must display the home page in FRENCH


Can anyone have a suggestion?

Thank you

Try the following:

(a) Go to Language Manager, for the Site, make French language as the default language
(b) Go to Plug-in Manager, open the plug-in "System - Language Filter" for edit, for the option "Language Selection for new Visitors", choose the value "Site Language"

Clear the browser cache and clear the cookies before testing this. The reason being, if some other language was used earlier, it would be recorded in the cookie and when you go to the site next time, the site would be showed in that language.

Also, in the languagefilter parameters, set
Remove URL Language Code
to Yes
