    I would do it via the .htaccess which most multi lang systems do, something like the below should work but change the en|nl|de to whatever your culture keys are

    # redirect all requests to /de/assets* and /nl/assets* to /assets*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(en|nl|de)/assets(.*)$ assets$2 [L,QSA]

      I don't do multi-context sites any more, so I'm not much help here. Are you sure you don't mean [[++assets_url]]? That's what you need for images, CSS, and JS files. It's easy to get them confused.

      Check the MODX_ASSETS_PATH and MODX_ASSETS_URL settings in core/config/config.inc.php - that's usually what's used for any access to the assets area. If that doesn't work, I'd go with PaulP's suggestion.

        @BobRay, thanks so much for you time. I'll try PaulP's method. How do you handle multiple languages then?
        @paulP, thanks for your help. I've tried it but no luck yet, maybe the .htaccess needs to sync. But this piece of code can rewrite my html path?

          TBH, I've never done a multi-language site.

          Make sure PaulP's code is above any other rewrite rules, but after the RewriteEngine on and RewriteBase line, which should be:

          RewriteBase /

            RewriteBase /

            This fixes it! I've put the rules above the default rewrite rules of modX and it works. So final code:

            # redirect all requests to /de/assets* and /nl/assets* to /assets*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(eng)/assets(.*)$ assets$2 [L,QSA]

# The Friendly URLs part
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]


            Thanks to you all. You guys keep this community alive.

              I'm glad we could help. Paulp deserves most of the credit.
