Language switcher module and navigation issue

[pm4698]

Hello there.

Using Joomla 3.10.3 VirtueMart 3.8.8 installation. It appears that when I am on a Virtuemart Category/Product if I hover the mouse on the language flags (you know when you hover mouse to a link, link shows up at bottom left as a notice) I see that flag of the language I am on shows the correct URL but the other flag shows the home page. I tried to check to a specific Virtuemart category where in the related menu item of one language I also added association to the other language's item and still the same.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance

When I am talking about flags I mean country flags inside the default language switcher module.

As for the language filter plugin:

Language Selection for new Visitors: Site Language
Automatic Language Change: Yes
Associations: Yes
Add Alternate Meta Tags: Yes
Add x-default Meta Tag: Yes
x-default Language: Default front-end
Remove URL Language Code: No
Cookie Lifetime: Session

Notice that my language change module works fine in Joomla articles

Cookie Lifetime

would be far simpler to supply the live url ..  !!

Language switcher is with flags at the top left of the page.

No language switcher visible on PC-view. Cramped view switcher but only greek ?

No gr on url ?

What are you switching between ?

Have You read what to do for multilanguage in the language module ?

Check my module https://shop.st42.fr/en/products/multi-language-for-virtuemart.htm
You can switch any categories or product(you do not need to associate categories)

Thanks, I missed that, but I do not see any possibility to switch language.

Thanks, I missed that, but I do not see any possibility to switch language.

It's only on the home page and a very odd dropdown thing ...

I suspect either the products etc aren't translated or the greek has been filled in in the default english .. perhaps .. maybe .. 

though looking now and it looks like its solved

and btw @ pm4698 -- wihout Patricks (Studio 42)  lang changer when u click Greek when on say https://cosycorner.gr/index.php/en/gifts-for-all/little-toy-store/0-3-years-old/funny-faces-magnetic-play-set-detail it will return to the greek home page unless u manually create every menu and map it to the appropriate other lang one

I use Patricks language switcher and I am very pleased with the way it switches languages. The stock Joomla module does return you to the home page instead.
