My website covers 4 languages. In order to 'switch' / 'translate' a certain content into another language I use the association concept. This concept works fine in most cases but unfortunately not in all cases. Let me show some examples:
The language switch between articles e.g:
DE: https://my_website.com/de/hilfe/190-kann-ich-mein-profil-fuer-ein-bestimmte-zeit-deaktivieren
...and ...
EN: https://my_website.com/en/help/191-can-i-deactivate-my-profile-for-a-certain-time ... works
The language switch between menu items e.g
EN: https://my_website.com/en/cb-profile
...and ...
DE: https://my_website.com/de/cb-profile ... works, the above example shows the profile of the user who is logged in
The language switch between a selected (foreign) user profile does NOTÂ work
eg. I search & select the following user profile in DE:
DE:Â https://my_website.com/de/cb-profile/24930-cammy215
.... as soon as I switch to EN, the following URL appears:
EN: https://my_website.com/en/cb-profile
...this is not correct .... because of some reasons the user ID: 24930-cammy215 at the end of the original URL will be lost.... the correct URL should be https://my_website.com/en/cb-profile/24930-cammy215 .... (this URL is valid, because I can enter it manually into the address field of the browser an this works)
The language switcher module only switches menu items. It discards other variables in the URL that are not a part of the menu item. You should be able to see this when you mouseover the flags if using flags mode as you'll see the URL is missing the user in it. I'm not really sure how to resolve that as we've no control over the language switcher behavior.
