Multilanguage static links to CMS pages

[Krystian Podemski]

Hello,

Today I came across a fairly trivial problem. Suppose we have a few language in the store and we want to make a static menu, where you will find links to pages in the CMS - we have seo url enabled and we want have this in few languages.

Is there any easy way to display the friendly multi-lingual links giving only a simple code and id of cms page?

We have getCMSLink() method, but what do you do when you do not know the alias (required in this method)?

I have not found any simple solutions and...

I made ​​it up like this:

1. I created a class CMS in override/classes/ that extends the basic functionality of CMS.
2. I put the query there wich only get the alias of url by cms page id.
3. I register the new Smarty function call cmsRewriteLinks, it looks now like this:

{$link->getCMSLink(3, {cmsRewriteLinks id_cms=3})}

Depending on the language gives me the url to the page in the CMS.

For eg.

http://shop.com/en/content/3-terms-and-conditions-of-use

and for french:

http://shop.com/fr/content/3-conditions-generales-de-ventes

Is it not necessary and is an easier way?

Hi,

 

Did you find a better way to do it? If not, could you explain how you have done it exactly?

 

It would be very helpful for me, but I cannot find a solution yet.

 

Thank you!
