Hi,
i am using kirby as headless for a mulitlanguage page with kql.
Currently it is EN and DE.
In the pages everything works fine, but the site only shows DE content even if the site.en.txt file contains the right values:
Any idea?
Thanks in advance.
Do you have any caching in place on the server? Or expire headers?
Hi Texnixe,
i checked that. It is not the case, the behavior is still the same. I added the lines in the .htaccess and flushed the opcache. In the pages it works but not in the “site”.
The .htaccess file:
# Kirby .htaccess
php_value opcache.revalidate_freq 0
# Core rewrite rules
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
# Make sure to set the RewriteBase correctly if you are running
# the site in a subfolder otherwise links or the entire site will break.
# RewriteBase /
# Block files and folders beginning with a dot, such as `.git`, except for
# the `.well-known` folder, which is used for Let's Encrypt and `security.txt`.
RewriteRule (^|/)\.(?!well-known\/) index.php [L]
# Make site links work.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php [L]
</IfModule>

x-language: en
the language file:
<?php
return [
'code' => 'en',
'default' => false,
'direction' => 'ltr',
'locale' => [
'LC_ALL' => 'en_US'
],
'name' => 'Englisch',
'translations' => [
....
],
'url' => NULL
];
i added
translate: false
to some fields in the site blueprint an this works also. when i switch the language these fields appear as readonly.
ok, i found the problem by changing the config file, step by step.
if i remove this part everything works fine.
here i add values from the fields to the email settings. what may be wrong with that?
'ready' => function() {
return [
'email' => [
'transport' => [
'host' => kirby()->site()->emailhost()->value(),
'port' => kirby()->site()->emailport()->toInt(),
'security' => kirby()->site()->emailsecurity()->toBool(),
'auth' => kirby()->site()->emailauth()->toBool(),
'username' => kirby()->site()->emailuser()->value(),
'password' => kirby()->site()->emailpass()->value(),
]
]
];
},
i changed it to this and afterwards everything appears as it should:
'ready' => function() {
return [
'email' => [
'transport' => [
'host' => kirby()->site()->content(kirby()->language())->emailhost()->value(),
'port' => kirby()->site()->content(kirby()->language())->emailport()->toInt(),
'security' => kirby()->site()->content(kirby()->language())->emailsecurity()->toBool(),
'auth' => kirby()->site()->content(kirby()->language())->emailauth()->toBool(),
'username' => kirby()->site()->content(kirby()->language())->emailuser()->value(),
'password' => kirby()->site()->content(kirby()->language())->emailpass()->value(),
]
]
];
},
