- Description
I'm a bit surprised that this hasn't been picked up by other international users as it seems to be quite broken to me, so maybe I'm missing something.
Multilingual structures only work for detected browser language and for registered user preference. If you try and change the page language using the language drop down box it browses to the new url, but the delivered page does not change.
I think this is classed a bug, as it renders the language dropdown box useless.
It also makes it impossible to edit translations as whenver you visit a page to translate it reverts to the page that is in your default language.
Edit: I've just realised this only happens when open page as structure" (feature_wiki_open_as_structure) is on. That setting is very useful however...
Edit: Even then, the language of the root page in the structure cannot be changed. Unless feature_sync_language is enabled and you go to a sub page, change the language and then go back to the root.
- Solution
I believe that making the drop down language selection box higher priority than detected browser language or user preferences would do the job.
