Automatic same slug for multiple languages in Polylang

[Nacionarte]

HI,

Congratulations! It really works allowing the different languages to display same slug;

It is possible to do that automatically by using polylang + lingotek + Polylang Slug?

Currently I'm able to change by hand the slugs ( like en/news, es/news-1 to en/news, es/news) or autosync content but slugs are "serialized";

Let me know if the settings or any other information would be relevant.

Thanks

You mean run an updater on the existing slugs after "Polylang Slug" is activated?

I have not used lingotek before.

[Nacionarte]

Yes,

That way it is possible to create wp polylang multilingual setups in two steps, while maintaining coherence between content using same slugs for different languages.

Lingotek allows you to create the original post (let's say english one) polylang powered, and output all the other languages versions automatically.

The content created like this (without translating) maintain the original language (slugs) with the "1, -2, -3... at the end of the slugs....

Run an updater after the content is created would be great;

Why do you not activate "Polylang Slug" before you run Lingotek? That way you would not have trouble with the slugs. If the slugs are not being set correctly then that would be a bug somewhere.

I did but does not work.

I understand that lingotek do their part on remote server and send back the information, should be Polylang Slug hooking up this process ?

I did couple of test with same result (slugs numbered in different languages) and the only thing that appears on debug.log is: [29-Feb-2016 18:24:51 UTC] PHP Notice: Undefined variable: arr in /home/domain/public_html/web1/wp-content/plugins/lingotek-translation/include/group-post.php on line 258

I would raise the issue with Lingotek. It should be easier for them to find the issue as they know their codebase. The code for checking if the slug should be unique is 53 lines of code which the developers of Lingotek should easily be able to understand. https://github.com/grappler/polylang-slug/blob/master/polylang-slug.php#L60-L113

I am happy to help the Lingotek developers if they need to some changes.

I will check with them, thank you, Keep up the good job grappler.

@Nacionarte Did you get any feedback from Lingotek?
