the fact here (that others also misunderstand) is that a text that is not included in a (:if:) branch does NOT mean that it is in the default language. consider the following (your default language is german): (:if userlang en:) text in english (:if userlang de:) text in german (:if:) text for ALL languages as you see the text that is outside the (:if:) branches is NOT the default language but displayed for ALL languages. > 2.

And how? maybe the documentation is not clear. let's suppose you have: $DefaultLanguages = array('de','en'); which says that in your site you have german and english versions, in this order of preference. if in a certain page the english is not defined then using the default= option will still display the link for english but it will redirect to the page specified (for example a home page). if default= is not specified then only the links for the defined languages will be displayed. > 3.
