    Url Tracker in multilingual setup

    Is it possible to use the Url Tracker in a multilingual setup where each language is placed in a subdirectory, so not in separate (sub)domains? I regularly use the following setup:

    --- Root (no hostname, culture Inherit)
        --- NL (no hostname, culture nl-NL)
        --- EN (no hostname, culture en-US)

    Url Tracker doesn't support this setup, because I have to configure hostnames for the NL and EN nodes, e.g.:

    NL: example.com/nl
    EN: example.com/en

    But when I do this Url Tracker starts prepending language subdirectories to the Old URL property, .e.g when I create the following redirect:

    Root node: NL (example.com/nl)
    Old URL: url_to_redirect
    Redirect node: <selected node to redirect to>
    Redirect type: Permanent (301)
    Forward querystring: Yes

    Url Tracker saves this as:

    Old URL: nl/nl/url_to_redirect

    Any suggestions?

    I've made some changes to our default multilingual setup, but unfortunately we're still having issues with 301 URL Tracker.

    Web.config: umbracoHideTopLevelNodeFromPath="false"

    LanguageRedirect (Doctype: LanguageRedirect): Culture Language: Inherit, no domain settings, redirects to /nl or /en based on cookie
    NL (Doctype: HomePage): Culture Language: nl-NL, no domain settings
    EN (Doctype: HomePage): Culture Language: en-US, no domain settings

    Of course URL Tracker forces me to configure domain settings, so:

    NL: example.com/nl
    EN: example.com/en

    URL Tracker still saves Old URL as "nl/nl/url_to_redirect" instead of "nl/url_to_redirect" as described in my initial post.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello,

    I've got exactly the same problem.

    http://screencast.com/t/7PnRaOPhHk0Q

    When renaming a page, the languages node gets added twice.

    E.g.

    en/my-page => rename to => en/my-great-page

    Redirect = en/en/my-page => en/my-great-page

    Lau

    According to @kipusoep 301 URL Tracker has not been tested (and most likely will not work) on a multilingual setup based on subdirectories instead of subdomains. He does plan to add support for this type of multilingual setup in the future.

    Wondering if this was fixed in later version of URL Tracker. I have a multi-region, multi language site with similar setup with URL Tracker 3.0.

    Yes, AFAIK this issue has been fixed in later versions.
