* Hi,
* We have a site with a static page as home page. Works fine and your plugin indeed
redirect to the correct page.
* However we would like to have the permalinks of the pages containing the /iso/
language like the blog does.
* Did I miss a settings somewhere?

* In fact, Polylang does not integrate this functionality yet. As discussed [here](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-polylang-keep-language-code-in-all-urls),
I chose not to add the language information when it is not necessary (ie for
posts, pages, categories and post tags) and add it only when it is mandatory (
for archives for example).
* The reason for this is that I wanted that, if for some reasons the plugin is
deactivated, the links are not broken, even if it would have been easier to add
the language information everywhere as other plugins generally do.
* However, since quite a lot of users seem to be interested in this feature, and
even if I will not recommend to use it, I added it in my todo list for v0.7.

* thanks for the answer and effort,
* is there a quick patch possible in your code?

* It’s not a matter of one or two lines of code. Several files will be modified.
Please be patient.
* Check this forum, I will probably release a development version for tests in
few days.

* Hi Chouby,
* I was actually trying to find this functionality in your great plugin. I understand
well the reason why you prefer not to set fixed paths of posts, but I’m struggling
with the Bombax theme (and I’m not a Web designer so I’m a bit lost).
* When I activate Polylang and set up everything, some of the stylesheets are not
accessible anymore for the added language. It’s ok for the default language when
the “Hide language information for default language” option is checked.
* Here is the difference between the two produced page sources:
* Default language:
* ```
[...]
[...]
```
* Second language:
* ```
[...]
```
* (I can post captures of the pages, but the site is currently only local to our
LAN)
* Will the next version enable this to work, or do I need to find another way?
* Thank you very much for the plugin, and for you help!

* No, the new version won’t correct that.
* The problem is that theme authors should not code like this, but most do. You
can correct it yourself (maybe you can ask the author to include the modification
in the next update).
* Edit the file bombax/header.php and replace lines 20 & 21
* ```
wp_enqueue_script('itx',get_bloginfo('url').'/?itx=js');
wp_enqueue_style('itx',get_bloginfo('url').itx_preview_vars('css'));
```
* by:
* ```
wp_enqueue_script('itx',home_url('?itx=js'));
wp_enqueue_style('itx',home_url(itx_preview_vars('css')));
```

* For people interested in and to better explain better why such coding can’t work
with Polylang (and most probably other multilingual plugins).
* On most sites, there is one or more links to the homepage (in the header, in
the menu…). For multilingual sites, we want that this links to the homepage in
the correct language (not the homepage in the default language).
* So Polylang filters every call to bloginfo(‘url’), get_bloginfo(‘url’), home_url()
which are the 3 ways to link to the homepage and adds the language information.
If other links use these function, then it breaks 🙁 .
* The alternative for Polylang would be to provide a new function which knows about
the translated homepage but it obliges to modify almost all themes. That’s why
I prefer the current solution.

* **Thank you so much!!!** It works perfectly.
I will ask them to include this
modification.
