Search module doesn't work in multilanguage site

Post by svavakim » Tue Feb 09, 2021 12:39 pm

Hi,
I am using the template ThemXpert Tx_Xenit_II Standard
https://www.imsd.ch/de/
I want to have a search button for each of the 3 languages.
But now only the English search button is visible in the front end. Not the German and the French button.

Customer support believes the website is not properly configured to be used as a multilanguage site.However, I have checked everything now according to their protocol: https://www.themexpert.com/blog/beginne ... la-website

In my belief the website is properly configured for the 3 languages. But the German/French search button doesn't work.
Who is able to help please?
Many thanks, Svava

The other way is to set the module to display for All languages.

To Per Berg, yes all 3 modules are given its language

To infograf768 , now I have set each of the 3 modules to ALL languages and as you can see:
https://www.imsd.ch/en/ the search button is diplayed

https://www.imsd.ch/de/ the suche button is NOT displayed

https://www.imsd.ch/fr/ the recherche button is NOT displayed..

Not sure we can help. You are using "Modules Anywhere" in en-GB.
