I have a CakePHP 2.5 site running with CakeDC/I18n plugin to allow for multi language support. I have installed the plugin to use a 3 letter prefix when switching languages:
www.example.com/eng/
This is working fine when I click a button to change languages. The language prefix is added to the url. The problem is when I switch pages by clicking on a link the prefix is dropped. Why would this be happening? Do I need to do something in the href markup? My understanding is that the CakeDC/I18n plugin would take care of this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have been scratching my head with this one for awhile!
You need to pass as parameter the current language.
Otherwise it'll always use the default language that you defined in the bootstrap.php
Here is an example.
Router::url(
'lang' => 'spa',
'controller' => 'articles',
'action' => 'view',
'slug' => 'test'
);
