Background of the issue:
I am trying to switch to the right homepage of the Dutch language on my site hidden link. This morning, your colleague Kor helped me with this issue, but I overlooked an important mistake.
Symptoms:
The special Dutch homepage does not show when switching languages.
Questions:
Why does the special Dutch homepage not show when switching languages?
Good morning, Yes please. it is a big problem for me (and my customer).
Please look at:
1. the language menu. (2 flags) -> this is right
2. Beneath you see the pages shown from the English menu
2A. these are only the pages of the english menu and after choosing the Dutch flag from the language only the translated pages will show.
2B. It is important when choosing the Dutch flag the Dutch menu will show. The Dutch menu that has to be shown is called: Primary Navigation
