Sergei Chusmah	Friday 24 August 2007 4:59:26 am I have a site in several languages, with a host method for selecting the language (i.e. example.com, fr.example.com, de.example.com) the version os 3.6 The problem is when a user logs in to example.com, and then switches the language, it redirects him to the user login page again. Maybe the stored cookies are valid only for a host name... How can I solve this? Also, the language code is not available to all my templates, is there a way to include it somehere so it is available to all templates? One last question, is there a common variable which stores the current host url (i.e. en.example.com). Maybe in the ·site array? Is there a doc where its contents are described? Thanks a lot!

You may change your siteaccess selection to something like www.example.com/fr www.example.com/de to be able to share the session between the different siteaccess. You should also have a look to the session configuration: http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_6/reference/configuration_files/site_ini/session > the language code is not available to all my templates I'm not sure to understand your question. May be getting the settings with the ezini operator is sufficient: ezini('RegionalSettings','locale') or something similar. > Is there a common variable which stores the current host url Yes, ezsys is the operator you are looking for. Have a look to the documentation: http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_6/reference/template_operators/data_and_information_extraction/ezsys Good luck, Microblau SL http://www.microblau.net

Regarding cookies, I think they can be set to a whole domain (i.e. *.example.com) with the syntax ".example.com", don't know if that would work in ez... ezsys and ezini solved my other problems, thanks :)

The main problem here is that you can not configure this in eZPublish. If you really want this, you have to hack the session's library. You also may send a request for enhancement for this feature at http://issues.ez.no Regards. Microblau SL http://www.microblau.net
