Hi

I have just downloaded the DS Localizator and let me say I am so far very impressed. I could work out most of the functionality easily so thanks for the excellent job.

My intention for obtaining this is very simple. I want to show different content of TEXT/HTML module to different visitors based on their geographics location. So when a UK visitor comes to the sites he will see:

"Text for UK visitor"

and when the rest of the world comes to the site, they will see

"Text for the rest of the world"

I saw in the description that you support GeoIP for automatic recognition. I tried to use it but I can't get any automation working. I am also using MLHTML in combination with DS Localizator which is great. So I can use the DS Language selector to see various content in the MLHTML which I can get it to work and is alreading working as you expect.

However, by default I can only see the US language no matter where the site is visited from (UK or US) .  I am sure there must be come correct way of setting this up, so any help will be appriciated.

Do you have to disable language selection for the GeoIP to work? If so how and where?

Currently I use these in general options:

portal setting localization = false

tab local = false

module local = false

dont use cookie = true

dont use query = false

replace URLS = false

replace solpart = false

dont use geoIP = false

dont use browser local = true

detection order: GeoIP ( i have removed all the rest)

The rest of the setting are as default when installed.

 

Thanks for any inputs

 

 

 

 

Thanks Locopon. I couldn't get back sooner.

The hack is installed and I have also activate the module localization. Here is what I set up now:

I have two languages enabled in dnn. US and UK English.

I set up  two text/html. I went to module localization, selected text box 1 in the appropriate tab, selected US english and set it as hidden. Then I went to text box 2, selected UK english and selected hidden. The idea was to see which one is hidden.

Currently the US english goes hidden. It is as if it set by default to read it as US language and is not responding to GeoIP. US language is of course the defaul language of the site. I tested this on proxies as well, and the result is always the same.

Am I correct to assume that the expected functionality is that GeoIP automatically matches a given language. This can be awkward if a language is spoken in multiple places in the world. Is there a way to link the GeoIP regions (using the DSLocalizator)  with  a specific language localisation in the DNN to make everything simple.

Thanks for you help
