alias confused with culture_key about babel HOT 5 CLOSED

Please note that Babel itself doesn't perform any redirects. Currently there is no gateway plugin shipped with Babel. How does your gateway plugin look like? Are you using any htaccess redirects?

from babel.

if (stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'/fr') !== false || stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'/fr/') !== false) {
    $modx->switchContext('french');
    $modx->setOption('cultureKey', 'fr');

} elseif (stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'/de') !== false || stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'/de/') !== false) {
    $modx->switchContext('german');
    $modx->setOption('cultureKey', 'de');

} else {
    $modx->switchContext('web');
    $modx->setOption('cultureKey', 'en');
}

from babel.

Here we go, the unwanted behaviour is caused by your own gateway plugin. This statement validates to true for something like /demand.html

 stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'/de') !== false

Check out the offical Babel tutorials at http://www.multilingual-modx.com/ to get your context switches work properly.

That was what was wrong! Thank you! But I want people to be redirected to
the german context wether they type in site.com/de/ or site.com/de (with or
without the trailing slash... is that something that I need to add in the
htacess file?

Yes, I think so. Take a look at this tutorial for some htaccess rules: http://www.multilingual-modx.com/blog/2011/seo-friendly-multilingual-websites-with-modx-and-babel.html
