Hi,
I did everything according to the instructions
http://rtfm.modx.com/display/revolution20/Creating+a+Subdomain+from+a+Folder+using+Virtual+Hosts

When i change the language, subdomain: en.mydomain.com is loading the error_page. Also is bad path to css, images, js.

What I do:

Context: en
Context Setings:

base_url /
cultureKey en
error_page 1427
http_host en.mydomain.com
site_url http://www.en.mydomain.com/
site_start 6

Plugin gateway with OnHandleRequest selected

<?php
if($modx->context->get('key') != "mgr"){
    //grab the current domain from the http_host option
    switch ($modx->getOption('http_host')) {
        case 'en.mydomain.com':
            //switch the context
            $modx->switchContext('en');
            //set the cultureKey
            $modx->setOption('cultureKey', 'en');
            break;

        default:
            // Set the default language/context here
            $modx->switchContext('web');
            $modx->setOption('cultureKey', 'pl');
            break;
    }
}

en.mydomain.com is in en subfolder and contains 3 files:

index.php repleced $modx->initialize('web'); to $modx->initialize('en');
default .htaccess with RewriteBase /
config.core.php with

<?php
define('MODX_CORE_PATH', dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/core/');
define('MODX_CONFIG_KEY', 'config');
?>

Personally I like this one http://www.multilingual-modx.com/blog/2011/seo-friendly-multilingual-websites-with-modx-and-babel.html

I use the plugin mentioned in one of the comments to this article https://gist.github.com/gadamiak/3812853

Yes this work great i know, but there is issue with Login plugin.
You can not log into another language

When you login in "web" context is ok, and you can also login in "other" context.
But if you want login first in "other" context, login page is only reload.

I try with

[[!Login? &contexts=`web,en`]]
[[!Login? &contexts=`en,web`]]
[[!Login? &contexts=`en`]]
[[!Login? &contexts=`web`]]

and nothing. Also I discovered that when i change in template base you can login:

en context: site_url "http://example.com/en/" -> won't work
en context: site_url "http://example.com/" -> work, but all other links are bad sad

How to get to work properly?

Did you set up the base_url and site_url in the context settings for each context?

You also may need to add a session_cookie_domain setting to the main System Settings. http://rtfm.modx.com/display/revolution20/session_cookie_domain

This has noting to do with language, though you will need to set the language for each context.

It may have more to do with your Snippet call:

Try something like this:

[[!Login?loginTpl=`lgnLoginTplIeFixed`&tplType=`modChunk`&contexts=`web,operations`&rememberMeKey=`rememberme`]]

The

&contexts

and

&rememberMeKey

should help you, especially

&rememberMeKey

if you are attempting to use Internet Explorer (even 10 has the issue) and are attempting to log in across contexts.

Additionally, you may need to set

session_cookie_domain

to .domain.com to create a cross subdomain cookie which will hold across all of the contexts.

Take note on the syntax: dot domain dot tld

Finally, make sure you have a

rememberme

checkbox or hidden field in the log in form:

<input type="hidden" id="rememberMe" name="rememberme"
					value="rememberme" checked="checked" />

Let's start from the beginning, so as to better understand the problem.

I changed the settings page execly like hire: http://designfromwithin.com/blog-webdesign-development/2012/01/12/modx-multilingual-setting-up-babel-and-have-a-website-with-multible-languages/

Work perfekt when change the language huh ?

session_cookie_domain now is default empty
Do I have to set ".e-hipokrates.com" ?
Once I changed it, I could not log in to the Manager

I call plugin:

[[!Login? &loginResourceId=`6` &contexts=`web,en` &logoutResourceId=`1605` &language=`english` ]]

Does anyone know why this is happening? [ed. note: avenus last edited this post 13 years, 3 months ago.]

I added

<input type="hidden" id="rememberMe" name="rememberme" value="rememberme" checked="checked" />

[[!Login? &loginResourceId=`6` &rememberMeKey=`rememberme` &contexts=`web,en` &logoutResourceId=`1605` &language=`english` ]]

Nothing change, still can't login on en context
Page only reload.

So I do some tests.
One again I did everything according to the instructions
http://rtfm.modx.com/display/revolution20/Creating+a+Subdomain+from+a+Folder+using+Virtual+Hosts

because it is a problem with logging when context are on folder:
ex.

mydomain.com --> Login plugin always working
mydomain.com/en/ --> Login don't work only reload page
mydomain.com/it/ --> Login don't work only reload page

But when we use subdomains and domains everything work perfect

mydomain.com --> Login plugin always working
en.mydomain.com --> Login plugin always working
it.mydomain.com --> Login plugin always working

The problem was to redirect traffic from the directory
/home_server_path/public_html/en/assets
to
/home_server_path/public_html/assets

So I had to modify .htacces in /home_server_path/public_html/en/ folder

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^assets/?(.*) http://www.mydomain.com/assets/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} .
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.en.mydomain\.com [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.en.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
