Hello,
I recently received this request from one of our users:
'One of my clients wants to link to your institutional repository, but the URL is the same in English and French. We believe that it automatically assumes the browser's language, which is not ideal. Is there any way to fix this to have two separate URLs?'
I haven't dug into the guts of the code yet, but before I do get into it... does anyone know if (1) there's a fairly easy way to tweak it to have language codes specified in the URLs like Wikipedia does (ie.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page) or (2) Have you heard anything specific to UX peer-reviewed research about why it would be bad to detect the browser language and render it accordingly... or does anyone know why the programmers chose to have it detect browser language?
Thanks,
Carolyn.
