Get current language

Reply Threaded

Hi,

in my Plone-site I switch languages by adding
'?set_language=LANGUAGE-CODE' to the url. This works fine but if I want
to get the current language with plone_portal_state.language() it always
returns the default language also it's supposed to return the current
language.

I'm running Plone 3.2.2 and LinguaPlone 2.4. Is it a bug or am I missing
something?

While playing around with language settings I found out that it is
possible to get the current language with
portal_languages.getLanguageBindings(). It's the first element of the
returned list. Are there any differences in getting the current language
between plone_portal_state.language() and
portal_languages.getLanguageBindings() besides former method doesn't
seem to work properly?

Best regards
Tobias

Thank you, Robert, you're right: portal_languages.getPreferredLanguage()
gives you the current language which seems to be the same as the first
element of the returned tuple of portal_languages.getLanguageBindings().
What about plone_portal_state.language()?
