On multi-language sites, by default, the language selector links to the page with the same name (URL) in each language. For example, if the user is on
https://fasttrackgreyscaletemplate.informamarkets.com/en/attend/internal-page-2.html
the AR (Arabic) language selector will have the link
https://fasttrackgreyscaletemplate.informamarkets.com/ar/attend/internal-page-2.html
However, if the Arabic website does not have the /ar/attend/internal-page-2.html page created then the user is redirected to the parent page of that site. In this case, the parent page is https://fasttrackgreyscaletemplate.informamarkets.com/ar/attend.html. If the Arabic site does not have the ar/attend.html page, the AR language selector will link to the next parent, which would be the ar language root page, in this case, https://fasttrackgreyscaletemplate.informamarkets.com/ar.html.
Here’s an example of such a page on the EN (English) site that is not present on the AR site:
https://fasttrackgreyscaletemplate.informamarkets.com/en/attend/data-team-testing/testlangselector.html.
The AR language selector in this case links to the parent of the parent page which is
https://fasttrackgreyscaletemplate.informamarkets.com/ar/attend.html.
Note:
- The language page of each site should be set to redirect to the homepage of the site. Authors can set this redirect on language pages (via page properties).
