In “Link to url“ page types, there is a “URL” field to set de url for the redirect. This field cannot be translated, so, in multilingual sites, you cannot set a different url for each language.
It causes that we are redirecting links to the wrong language and people need to change the language at the destination website.
The solution would be to make that field localizable, as it is the “Name” field, or many other.
HI @oihana, so, “Link to URL” page types, along with all of the legacy “Widget” page types are in “Maintenance” mode. The more up-to-date approach for this requirement is to use Navigation Menus, and the URL option - it performs the same function, but without adding a new page to the site to simply act as a redirect.
However, the URL option for Navigation Menus also lacks the ability to have a localized URL (similarly, you can localize the Name).
Adding this reply here so that our Product team can consider adding the ability to have localized URLs for the URL Navigation Menu type.
Hi, thank you, that would be perfect.
Hi, I'd like to add other "lacks" for URL o Subemenu nodes in Navigation Menus. They are a valid alternative to original "Link to Url" or "Pageset" pages only for basic features. If you need to add an icon to a page displayed in a navbar (a very classic feature for pages) or add a sort of configuration with a "page custom field" to clearly differentiate a specific page from others (for example to add a badge "new" beside page name in navbar, or other purposes) it's not possible with these new kind of navigation menu nodes, forcing an Editor to come back to classic approach.
