I'm working a multilingual site in EE and I am optimizing the URL's for SEO reasons in multi languages as well. The purpose is that people can visit the URL
http://www.domain.com/nl/contact/medewerkers and also http://www.domain.com/fr/contact/personnel
both pointing to the same templategroup 'medewerkers' (medewerkers is staff in English fyi)
Just to be complete: the switch of the language is triggered by the first segment in the URL and works fine
The idea was to have some entries in the .htaccess in the /fr subdir of the site to make the 'translation' of the URL to right template group.
So in this /fr/.htaccess I've specified
RewriteRule ^contact/personnel$ contact/medewerkers
However for some reason this does not seem to work properly
