Switch Language via Menu Item?

[nhudell]

I am having a lot of difficulty getting the standard language switching module to work with my template.

Is there any way to create a Menu Item that can switch the languages? That would be very helpful to have this functionality sit in with the other menu objects.

You evidently may use an External URL menu item with the correct full url in each lang menu (http: //mysite.com/en/ or /fr/ etc.)
But this would not deal with associations and only redirect you to the home pages for a language.

Better try to solve your template issue.

Thank you for the info, and the advice. Much appreciated!

For future reference, the nice people at RocketTheme provided me with this very simple CSS that solved the issue for me. It should work in any template, but worked fine for me in my Gantry based template.

Code: Select all

div.mod-languages {
   position: absolute;
   top: 1rem;
   right: 1rem;
}
