The audience of my website is English users from around the world, so I can't really use the "en-GB" or "en-US" language tag because they specify a region.
I've been looking around for people with the same problem and also came across the following tool: http://www.internationalseomap.com/href ... generator/
When I choose to leave the region to default and specify the language to English it generates a "en" language tag.
When I try to set this in Joomla I get the following error:
I have the same problem with other language tags, e.g. Dutch, which is mainly used in The Netherlands and Belgium. And French which is used in France and Canada, as well as other places in Europe and Africa.Error
Save failed with the following error:
The Language Tag should contain 2 or 3 lowercase letters corresponding to the ISO language, a dash and 2 uppercase letters corresponding to the ISO country code.
This should be the exact prefix used for the language installed or to be installed. Example: en-GB, srp-ME.
I could target each region, but this would create a huge list of choices on the language selector tool, and it would require more maintenance work since I need to have a copy of article's for each region.
