    Hey guys,

    first of all: Awesome Plugin and very easy to setup.
    I am working on a website in 4 languages and I have created 4 buttons which are placed into the header.php – why? The template doesn’t have a sidebar.
    Now I am struggeling with the following problem:

    I am on the german page, navigate to contact. The moment I click on french it guides me to the french startpage, but I would like to switch the language very easy. In this case (I am on the german contact page) and I click on french I would love to be on the french contact page.

    I hope you guys get my question: how can I realize this?

    Regards

    Martin

    Are the French and the German contact pages marked as translations of each other?

    Hi Toscho,
    thanks for your fast reply.

    No they are not marked as translation.

    Is this required?

    I just tried what you asked me but it does not help me. I marked the french contact page as a translation of german, published it…
    as mentioned above, the links are manually added into the header.php

    E.g.:
    doamin.com/de
    domain.com/ru
    domain.com/en
    doamin.com/fr

    The template does not have a sidebar (not wished/needed)

    To get the correct links, use Mlp_Helpers::show_linked_elements();. That will output a list of links to translations of the current page (if available).

    If you use hard-coded links, MLP cannot change anything. 🙂
