Multilingual – falls back to english search page

Hey, we have a bilingual (WPML) product directory page. The default language is English.

I now created a search form for English and German.

For the German Page the Link is eg. http://www.website.com/de/search

If I now search for a product, only German product Posts appear (which is good!)

However, what happens is that the URL changes: http://www.website.com/search/?_sf_s=product.

So there are only German Products but we are not on the German page anymore! If the user now seeks for a keyword he only gets english product results.

Hope for help! Thank you very much!

Hey Gregor I’ve just mailed you an updated version so please test this…

Do you have a link I could look at (you can send a private reply)?

In the “display results” tab, if you are using the shortcode option then try the following:

Make sure that in your translated version of the search form that you also update Results URL to reflect the URL for that specific language.

Thanks
