In a Typoscript HMENU, how to force the language for the URL


I have a multi-language, multi-site, multi-domain TYPO3 (4.5) Instance where RealURL keeps me busy. In some sub-sites, I just can't get it to create the right URLs for Languages 1 and 2.

It will result in the pattern www.language-2-domain.com/language-1-pagetitle

Instead of keeping on fiddling with realurl_conf, I would like to know if/how it is possible to tell a TMENU to force use a certain language - then I could solve it with a condition.

Here's a completely normal TMENU:

lib.content_sitemap = COA
lib.content_sitemap {
5 = HMENU
5 {
  wrap = <ul>|</ul>
  1 = TMENU
  1 {
    expAll = 1
    noBlur = 1
    NO {
       wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
       text = nav_title // title
     }

   ACT < .NO
   ACT {
       wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
       }
   ACT = 1

   CUR < .NO
   CUR {
       wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
       }
   CUR = 1
    }
  }
}

Now what I could use would be something like

5.1.NO.text.sys_language_uid = 1

Is there something like that?

EDIT: I see, it's not the "text" that's concerned. Can I build the typolink in NO by hand with "doNotLinkIt" and force the language there?


Solution

  • This is an obvious example of "get desperate and look for hacks instead of looking at the problem after a good night's sleep".

    There were inconsistencies in the RealURL Config which provoked the erroneous behaviour.

    I'm posting the hopefully fully working RealURL config. It covers two single-domain/multi-language websites as well as two multi-domain/multi-language websites. That is why I use the regex on the URL.
