Language Switcher - includes default language code

Hi,

Why does the default language include "/en/" when I switch languages?

www.2020.taichungdesigner.com/en/about
www.2020.taichungdesigner.com/about

In my System - Language Filter - I have removed URL Language Code:

But, when clicking on the language switcher:

/en/about - it includes /en/ in the title.

I'm looking at this Joomla site - and it doesn't seem to include it when switching languages:

joomlaseo.com/joomla-seo-basics

Is there something I missed?

Thanks

Hello

The removal of language code is done by JRoute not by the component router
(according to the Joomla language filter plugin)

If you are currently viewing default language then the language switcher will show URLs without the code
If you are currently viewing any non-default language then the language switcher will show URLs with the code

Here is an example of Joomla category view in non-default language you can see that language code for default language is included
(currently default language for this website is Greek)

After you click the URL.
The website should redirect to same URL without the language code

Hi ggppdk,

Thanks for taking the time to explain it. It helped solve my issue as the page wasn't redirecting from /en/ to /.

My Joomla! Template was causing the issue. I’m using PJAX via barba.js ( barba.js.org/v1/ ). So – the header info sent to redirect the page was not being picked up by barba.js.

Disabling barba.js on language switch by adding class “no-barba” to the links seems to solve the issue.

Cheers,

Robert
