Language selection templatetag

[sunjoomoon]

Do we have any templatetag for changing/ switching language in the template? That is for the site visitors to select a language, if multilingual site. I've tried many but none works well.

For multilanguage selection, I tried many of course including django doc as per https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/topics/i18n/translation/#the-set-language-redirect-view

The thing was it failed to move to the selected language... all were fine except for that.

After googling around, I found below answer...

<form action="{% url 'set_language' %}" method="post" id="lang_changer">
{% csrf_token %}
<input name="next" type="hidden" value="{{ redirect_to }}" />
<select name="language">
{% get_language_info_list for LANGUAGES as languages %}
{% for language in languages %}
<option value="{{ language.code }}"{% if language.code == LANGUAGE_CODE %} selected="selected"{% endif %}>
    {{ language.name_local }} ({{ language.code }})
</option>
{% endfor %}
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Go" />
</form>
<script>$('#lang_changer input[name="next"]').attr('value', '/'+window.location.pathname.substring(4));</script>
