Language switcher does not always appear

In case the language switcher does not appear, you can try the following:
Enable at least 2 languages, and then edit language negotiation.

You can find this at Home » Administer » Site configuration » Languages » Configure

Choose "Path prefix with language fallback"

How to prevent incorrect node translation link in lang switcher?

by Anonymous - 12/13/2009 - 20:10

Hi, I am wondering how you deal with the following problem with the language switcher.
Suppose you have a website with English (default) and Spanish. Both languages configured with language prefix, language negotiation is with prefix with fallback. You add a page:
example.com/en/welcome (node/1), and translate it:
example.com/es/bienvenido (node/2).
If you're at the 'welcome' page, and click the language switcher for Spanish, you'll go to example.com/es/bienvenido, great.

Now you publish a story, say example.com/en/some-story-title(node/3), but there is no translation. Now when you click 'Spanish' from there, it will take you to example.com/es/node/3, even though this is an English story.
example.com/es/node/3 Should not exist, and now you have duplicate content...

So how do you stop the language switcher block from linking to this inconsistent url?

Did you receive an answer?
