Bug #90641
closedSetting hreflang to "x-default" break html-lang attribute
0%
Description
- www.example.com/ is the default international page
- www.example.com/de-de is a different page tree for Germany
- www.example.com/it-it is a different page tree for Italy
- www.example.com/en-GB is a different page tree for Great Britain.
Each page tree uses an own config.yaml for the site configuration.
On the homepage within the HTML-head this correct hreflang tags where rendered:
<link rel="alternate" href="https://www.example.com/it-it/" hreflang="de-DE">
<link rel="alternate" href="https://www.example.com/it-it/" hreflang="it-IT">
<link rel="alternate" href="https://www.example.com/it-it/" hreflang="en-DB">
<link rel="alternate" href="https://www.example.com/" hreflang="x-default">
This works, since I set hreflang to "x-default" for the default international page.
Since this property is `Used within for "lang" and "hreflang" attributes` I got a the following HTML-tag:
<html dir="ltr" lang="x-default">
This is indeed wrong.

There should be no need to set the x-default hreflang, as it is handled by the HreflangGenerator. (typo3/sysext/seo/Classes/HrefLang/HrefLangGenerator.php Line 96)
You should set the hreflang of the international page to the "correct" value, like "en-GB" and not to x-default.
Could you please check whether this has already solved the problem.

This is correct for single page tree solutions. Thanks. I saw we have a custom implementation of hreflang tags for the multi page tree setup. So I can fix this there.
@Simon
I would suggest to close this issue.
