Hi Niphlod, once I discovered that making a symbolic link for each language
in the app directory pointing to the app directory worked well.
Namely something like that app_dir/it ---> app_dir . However it would be
better to find something cleaner but for that I have to look at nginx but
right now I don't access to the virtual machine.
I guess we can add a new directive for serving static files with language
in url. will it works?
