The page behind the hyperlink will open in default language.

  • The site’s default language is Finnish.
    User chooses the language to English.
    User chooses link from menu. Page will open correctly in English.
    Page contains a link to more information. The page behind the link will open again in Finnish.

    It seems to me that this is a problem ??

    What URL I must open to check your issue ?

    That same.
    Go to https://www.elamysvirta.fi. select language (English), choose “services” and “fishing” for example. Then you can try “Muonionjoki” hyperlink… and You are in Finnish site again

    You need to localize link in your theme and to get it in current language.
    For example if you have code

    
<?php
$url = 'https://www.elamysvirta.fi/palvelut/kalastus/muonionjoki/';
?>
<h3><a href="<?php echo $url; ?>"><strong>Muonionjoki</strong> </a>&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;river</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35czHk7NvUc&t=27s" target="_blank">Video “Released salmon”</a></h3>

    then you need to replace first string to

    
<?php
$url = WPGlobus_Utils::localize_url('https://www.elamysvirta.fi/palvelut/kalastus/muonionjoki/');
?>

    That fixes only one link? I am looking for universal solution. This is really arduous solution, because there are a lot of links

    @maijapiippo

    There is no code in WPGlobus that automatically translates links in the post content.

    You should change the links so that when you are on the page
    https://www.elamysvirta.fi/gb/palvelut/kalastus/

    then you put the link as
    https://www.elamysvirta.fi/gb/palvelut/kalastus/muonionjoki/

    (with /gb/ and without any PHP code)

    A relative link muonionjoki/ should work, too.

    Now, if you want to have all links in the body localized automatically, you can add a the_content filter and use the code similar to what Alex wrote. I wouldn’t do it and simply would write the correct links for each language.

    P.S. Lovely fish!
