Tags link to 404

Joomla 3.9.2

I have a multilingual website which functions very well, except for the tags which all redirect to the 404 page. The problem is the language code in the url. In the language filter plugin if I turn off "Remove URL Language Code" the tags work but only in the default language (as the language code remains for the second language).

It seems that when the tag is created it does not create the correct url?

Any ideas??

Check your settings in com_tags Options.

Thank-you Infograf

Yes, I have the same. "Language Filter" had been set to "All" but I changed this a few days ago hoping it would be the solution: still the same problem.

Last night I installed OSMap and found it is also creating a 404 link:
en/component/osmap/?view=xml&id=1

I changed this manually to:
en/?option=com_osmap&view=xml&tmpl=component&id=1

...and the page worked. I am wondering if these two problems are connected?

In Global Config I have all SEO Settings enabled. I've played with different variations but no joy.

Impossible to help without access as superuser to your site to see/test if a 3rd party extension is responsible for this.

The Yoo Master2 template is blocking tags from the homepage; but is not the cause of the 404

I looked at your issue grace to the credentials you sent me.
The solution is to create in the main menu for each language a menu item of type `List of All Tags`.
Make it hidden.
Do NOT forget to clean the cache via your specific Toolbar button.
I have done it for you for the English Main Menu and it looks like working fine.

Thank-you!! I've spent hours on this.

Over the weekend I set up a site using a fresh install, bi-lingual with the same template and add-ons. I couldn't duplicate the problem and the tags work fine in both languages. The two sites I had a problem with both started life as 2.5 so wondering if the update was the cause??

Thanks again.

It could be related to the use of "URL Modern Routing"
