Hi,

I have a custom route on a localized site (en & fr), but I'm relatively new to SS and haven't figured out how to provide a French version of the same route. I hard coded a second route with "fr/" (using the same action), but I still need to pass the locale to the templates. I was trying to do something in the controller init function along the lines of :

i18n->set_locale('fr_FR');

here are the routes:

Director:
rules:
'collection-rules//$Action/$ID/$OtherID': 'CollectionRulePageController'
'fr/collection-rules//$Action/$ID/$OtherID': 'CollectionRulePageController'

any advise would be greatly appreciated...

First of all I think it should be:

i18n::set_locale('fr_FR'):

Next: why not use a second controller for the french route, something like:

FrCollectionRulePageController extends CollectionRulePageController

And then have each provide its own locale?

Another way would be to check the url from within the controller
