Hello all.
I've put on line my first web2py website, thanks to all for help.
It's native in English, with Italian translation. So I've got things like
that:
Controller:
def products():
...
response.title = 'My web site' + ' -' + T('Products')
...
And in my views I load text from db like that:
...
{{if T.accepted_language=='it':}}
{{=(category.description_it)}}
{{else:}}
{{=(category.description_en)}}
{{pass}}
...
The problem seems to be that search engines take care only about English
pages, and not Italian ones.
Perhaps it's normal, URL don't change if page is displayed in English or
Italian.
Certainly I have to set language in routers.py for having different URL's
depending of languages.
I've tried like that but I obtain always en in my URL, also if I display
pages in Italian:
mydomain.com/en/products
I don't have /it/ also with the it language.
routers = dict(
BASE = dict(
domains = {
"mydomain.com" : "myapp",
}
),
myapp = dict(
languages=['en', 'it'],
default_language=None
),
)
Here is how I manage language selection in menu:
In layout.html I append the language menu:
...
{{if response.menu:}}
{{if session.language is None:}}
{{session.language == T.accepted_language}}
{{pass}}
{{if session.language == 'it' or T.accepted_language == 'it':}}
{{response.menu.append(('IT', False, URL('default', 'it'), [('EN',
False, URL('default', 'en'), [])]))}}
{{else:}}
{{response.menu.append(('EN', False, URL('default', 'en'), [('IT',
False, URL('default', 'it'), [])]))}}
{{pass}}
{{=MENU(response.menu, _class='nav',li_class='dropdown',ul_class=
'dropdown-menu')}}
{{pass}}
...
In controller:
def it():
session.language = 'it'
if request.env.http_referer:
redirect(request.env.http_referer)
else:
redirect(URL('index'))
return dict()
def en():
session.language = 'en-us'
if request.env.http_referer:
redirect(request.env.http_referer)
else:
redirect(URL('index'))
return dict()
And in controller for every view at the beginning of functions I set my
session.language variable:
def products():
if session.language:
T.force(session.language)
...
1/ How can I have /it/ instead of /en/ with Italian pages ?
2/ If I use a tool like that
http://www.seoutility.com/it/tools/google/sitemap_generator.aspx does for
sitemap.xml generation it will find also Italian pages ?
Thanks, regards.
