Managing Language Mappings in Your Community

Overview

The issue arose when enabling localized languages for a community, resulting in the homepage redirecting to a group. 

The problem happens due to incorrect language mapping settings, specifically for English (US), which was set to redirect to the Community Groups page. The solution involves remapping English (US) to the correct category and configuring language mappings in the admin settings. 

Information

Issue: Enabling localized languages misconfigured the homepage, redirecting it to a group.

Cause: Incorrect language mapping settings for English (US), redirecting to the Community Groups page.

Resolution Steps

  1. Verify Language Mapping Settings:
    • Navigate to Aurora Admin → Settings → Features → Localized Categories.
    • Check the language mapping for English (US).
  2. Remap English (US) to the Correct Category:
    • Select the appropriate category for English (US).
    • Save the changes.
  3. Configure Language Mappings for Other Languages:
    • For Spanish (es-ES), select the desired top-level category.
    • Ensure other languages are mapped to their respective categories or left unmapped as needed.
  4. Verify Resolution:
    • Test the homepage to ensure it no longer redirects to the Community Groups page.
    • Confirm that language-specific categories are correctly displayed.

Note: If issues persist, ensure that all language mappings are correctly configured and that any test categories used for mapping are properly managed. Further details about this feature can be seen in Aurora: Create and map a localized category.
