Elxis 4: Article in front page + multilinguism + Home link?

[Luca]

@datahell

Hello datahell,

is there, please, a way to make the language flag's URLs for the frontpage ending just right as the Home menu links do (domain.tld/lang/)?

Thank you,

Luca

Isn't this already happening? 

[Luca]

Hello @datahell, how are you? I hope fine!

Isn't this already happening?  Huh

Indeed... ......

I'm pretty sure (cannot guarantee, though)  that before the upgrade it was ok...
In order to verify this, I ought to downgrade from rev. 1452 to 4.0 ...

I've compared the files before and after the upgrade, before posting, and I didn't managed to find the "clue". So that I'm asking.

It is clear that, if anybody else had had this "issue", then it is my problem...

Cheers,

Luca

Now, I'm getting a little confused: no matter which autonomous page I set as frontpage (Home in menus), it is rendering the same article (which it is indeed the one I want).
At this point, I think that the issue is only on my side, maybe I had assigned that article somewhere in order to appear as the frontpage but I'm not able to find it... LOL!!! 

Elxis link* is set to content:/

The frontpage in Elxis 4.x is set on Elxis configuration, not in menus (as it was in 2009.x).
The default frontpage is content:/ which equals to the frontpage grid as you have designed it in Elxis administration. Any other values doesn't use the frontpage grid system.
To make an autonomous page your site's frontpage, set as frontpage in Elxis configurtion something like that: content:mypage.html

Thank you @datahell.

Yes, I was missing that. Sorry!

Then, I don't understand why the language flags still have the URL mydomain.tld/myarticle.html mydomain.tld/lang/myarticle.html ?

Because this is the real URL of the page...
In Elxis configuration you set what you want to be displayed in frontpage. It doesn't change the site's structure. The page will be visible in frontpage and also in its original position.

My recommendation is to use the frontpage grid in frontpage.
You can create a custom module and show it there with any content you what as you would do with an autonomous page.

Thank you very much. I'll do that. Cheers!
