Just one flag and wrong default language

Post by iptamas » Wed Sep 21, 2016 7:45 pm

Hi Everybody,

I'm making my first live Joomla site, working on multi-language settings. I was following a good tutorial how to do it, but I think I messed up something at the end. Actually the site works more or less, but only the British flag is there, and English is the default language. So I can reach the Hungarian content, and once I get there, it works well, and when I switch back to English, it also works well. But I want Hungarian to be the default one, and obviously to switch languages. I also noticed that in the Hungarian menu Home was only marked with a star (I think it should be marked with a flag). Will anybody help me please?

Thanks, apsilva... I think default language is sorted, but I still do not know why the other flag is missing.

Have you set ONE default Home menu item, in its own menu, set to ALL languages (it should have a yellow star). And no menu module to display that menu item?
Then each content language you use should have its own default Home menu item in their own menus (flags will show).
