That's a pretty basic requirement, I would think.

Ok. The snippet (I named it mmlLanguage) works great. I've made a select drop-down for the language menu, so that it will show the current language at the top, but without a value.
The main "langlinks" menu block looks like this:
<div class="langlinks">
<form>
<select name="URL" onchange="window.location.href=this.form.URL.options[this.form.URL.selectedIndex].value">
<option value="">[[!mmlLanguage]]</option>
[![!mmlLangLinks? &wrapper=`@CODE [[+output]]`]]
</select>
</form>
</div>
And the mmlLinkTpl looks like this:
[[+language:is=`[[!mmlLanguage]]`:then=``:else=`<option value="[[+link]]">[[+language]]</option>`]]
Hi,
I have two issues that i'm struggling with...
1. The home button from my main navigation when on a secondary language goes to the default language home page. So it defaults to www.myWebsite.com rather than www.myWebsite.com/lang/ - any ideas how I can remedy this?
2. Does anyone know how I get a breadcrumb trail to work with the translations? I am using the snippet 'Breadcrumb' (
http://rtfm.modx.com/extras/revo/breadcrumb/) but can't figure out how to get this to work.
Thanks for any help

This should just work, if you did start with a setup like here:

If not, we would need to know, what is different at yours.

Use pdoCrumb instaed.
Example:
[[!pdoCrumbs?
&tpl = `breadCrumbTpl`
&tplCurrent = `breadCrumbcurrentTpl`
&hideSingle=`1`
&includeTVs=`mml_pagetitle`
&loadModels=`migxmultilang`
&prepareSnippet = `mmlTranslatePdoToolsRow`
]]
breadCrumbTpl:
<a href="[[+link]]">[[+pagetitle]]</a>
breadCrumbcurrentTpl:

Hi Bruno,
Thanks for the heads up about pdoCrumbs.
As far as I can see the menu is set up as you have indicated:
[[$nav_multilang]]
[[!pdoMenu?
&startId=`0`
&level=`3`
&rowTpl=`wfRow_multilang`
&parentRowTpl=`wfParentRow_multilang`
&outerTpl=`wfOuter`
&innerTpl=`wfInner`
&levelClass=`level`
&includeTVs=`mml_pagetitle,mml_menutitle`
&prepareTVs=`1`
&tvPrefix=`tv.`
&loadModels=`migxmultilang`
&prepareSnippet=`mmlTranslatePdoToolsRow`
&excludeDocs=`955,956,957,958,1323`
]]
Template:
[[!mmlCache?
&element=`pdoResources`
&parents=`0`
&resources=`[[*id]]`
&tpl=`GenericTemplate`
&includeTVs=`[[mmlGetTemplateTVs]]`
&prepareTVs=`1`
&processTVs=`1`
&includeContent=`1`
&tvPrefix=``
&loadModels=`migxmultilang`
&prepareSnippet=`mmlTranslatePdoToolsRow`
&cache=`1`
]]
The [[+link]] works OK and goes to the relevant home page but the actual Home page link does not append the language key.

what is the generated link?
what is the cultureKey of this context?
what is the base_url of this context?
Hi Bruno,
Hopefully i have understood your questions but please let me know if not...
1. Presumably you mean the link generated from the home button - it is simply: www.myWebsite.com (i.e, no appended language key)
2. Do you mean the language keys ‘we’ or ‘en’ ?
3. <base href="[[!++site_url]]" />

1. I mean the generated link, when you look into the generated source-code, I think it is not 'www.myWebsite.com' but something like
2. I mean the system-setting or context-setting of your site. Is it 'we' or is it 'en'?
3. What do you get with
- this is not the site_url
HI Bruno,
1. yes the generated link is as you say: '/'
2. there is only one context, this is not a multi-context site, AFAIK we don't set this - but i'm guessing it's English if going by the multilang stuff.
3. When i add [[++base_url]] to a resource i get '/'

Now solved;
The original rowTpl contained the wayfinder links. As it changed to use the pdoMenu I had to swap [[+wf.link]] with [[+link]] and it all works:-)
