eZ publish 3.6.8:

I enabled 2 languages in my setupwizard during installation. All my articles are on the primary language, but only a few on the secondary language.

I've created a couple of flags with links at my plagelayout.tpl, but I cant make them work as I want. What code do I need to embed to let my users switch between the languages?

Hello,

You can use for example :

{if eq( $site.http_equiv.Content-language, fr-FR)}	
		<a href="{concat('http://www.exemple.com/en/', $DesignKeys:used.url_alias)}">English version</a>
		{else}			
		<a href="{concat('http://www.exemple.com/fr/', $DesignKeys:used.url_alias)}">Version française</a>
		{/if}

You can also use a loop and a direct link to the same page in another language

<ul>
        {def $locales=fetch( 'content', 'translation_list' )}
  		{foreach $locales as $locale}
  			<li>
<a href={concat("../",$locale.country_code|downcase(),"/",$module_result.content_info.url_alias)|ezurl}  >{$locale.language_name}</a>
                       </li>
  			{/if}
		{/foreach}
	{undef}
</ul>

Thanks for your replies! I have now got it working using the siteaccess method.
