Hi all, I am developing a website wich will have two language, but each language will have differents content. For that, I created two folder in the root of the admin, one for french and one for english, and I set the language of each folder. For the moment, the operator i18n don't check the language of the object, I tested a translation in the folder template and it's only on french, the default language of the siteaccess. Wich solution can I use? I am desperate... Thank you.Bob

Any reason for not creating separate siteaccesses? Note that you can create two siteaccesses even if you have two separate content subtrees.

Hi !
Thank you for this speedy response, impressive!
"Note that you can create two siteaccesses even if you have two separate content subtrees."
OMG is it possible!? With the SiteAccess MatchOrder Host? Like www.mydomain.com/fr for SiteAccess fr / fr folder subtree and www.mydomain.com/nl for SiteAccess en / en folder subtree?
What is this magic solution? Thank you very much.

I am not a grand wizard in SiteAccess config, but you could try until you get it working (or hope someone else chimes in in this thread):
- the easy route: create a new vhost: fr.mydomain.com
- the other way: use MatchOrder=uri;host
NB: other settings you might play with can make the '/nl' '/fr' disappear from your urls and breadcrumbs, so that each siteaccess looks like there is only its own content subtree. There are a few of them: PathPrefix, IndexPage, DefaultPage are the ones off the top of my head in site.ini.

Thank you.
"create a new vhost: fr.mydomain.com" I don't want that for SEO purpose.
"use MatchOrder=uri;host" I tested that without result. I will test again and tell you if it works.
I realy believed that have siteaccess for subtree wasn't possible...
Thank you again.

Thank you very much Gaetano, I resolved the problem with:
In settings/override/site.ini.append
MatchOrder=host_uri HostUriMatchMapItems[]=admin.mysite.com;;ezflow_site_admin HostUriMatchMapItems[]=www.mysite.com;fr;freHostUriMatchMapItems[]=www.mysite.com;en;eng
In settings/siteaccess/fre
IndexPage=/content/view/full/111/ # the node id of the folder frRootNodeDepth=2
Same in settings/siteaccess/eng with the node id of the folder en
THANK YOU !!!
