Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73918&edit=1 ID: 73918 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: meghesanovidiu at yahoo dot com Summary: selected language ignored -Status: Not a bug +Status: Re-Opened Type: Bug Package: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant -Assigned To: cmb +Assigned To: Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The PHP manual has hreflang links, so search engines should cater to that. It may be, however, that there's something wrong with the hreflang links. I don't have time to investigate on this, though.

Compare the behavior of the following URLs with regard to the selected language: <http://php.net/manual/function.strpos.php> <http://php.net/manual/en/function.strpos.php> <http://php.net/manual/ro/function.strpos.php> Only the first URL will respect the selected language; the others will choose the language given in the URL. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-01-12 11:18:09] meghesanovidiu at yahoo dot com Description: ------------ i search for a php function on google, which lands me on the function page in the php doc. it automatically selects the language (romanian for me). i choose english. the next time i repeat the procedure (from the search), i land again on the php site on the romanian version so i have to change the language again. the site should keep my language option in a cookie and respect it. it's annoying to change it every time i come to the site... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73918&edit=1
