[Resolved] Nginx configuration for translating login page

Hello,

As discussed I converted our conversation into a ticket. Please let me know if you managed to create the redirect rule in your htaccess and if it solved the issue.

Thanks,
Nico

Hello,

Here is the full documentation. I made a mistake, you don't have to place that code inside your htaccess file but inside the ngnix settings:

Translating Login and Registration Pages for Sites that Use nginx
If your site uses nginx and your language URL format is set to Different languages in directories, you may see a 404 error when trying to access a login or registration page in a secondary language.

To avoid this, you will need to adjust some settings.

Server Requirements for Sites that Use nginx
Rules for translating the login and registration pages are usually stored in the htaccess file. Because ngnix does not access this file, you will need to modify the nginx settings to add the following rewrite rules. If you do not have the permissions to do so, please contact your hosting provider to make these changes.

The rule to add is:

rewrite ^/xx/wp-login.php /wp-login.php break;

Where xx is the language code.

For example, if the user has English, German, and French languages active on their site, the nginx rules would be:

rewrite ^/en/wp-login.php /wp-login.php break;
rewrite ^/de/wp-login.php /wp-login.php break;
rewrite ^/fr/wp-login.php /wp-login.php break;

If your language URL format is set to A different domain per language or Language name added as a parameter, no additional configurations are required.
