Language selector: Is there a way to switch to the same page in the other language?

[syeda-git]

Hi,

I have set up a basic language selector site https://syeda-git.github.io/mkdocs-sandbox/en/mydoc_about/
Currently, if i switch from that page to French, the root(index) page in FR is displayed.

The expectation is that when i switch from a page, the same page in the target language should be displayed.
So, if i switch from https://syeda-git.github.io/mkdocs-sandbox/en/mydoc_about/ to FR, i should see
https://syeda-git.github.io/mkdocs-sandbox/fr/mydoc_about/

Is that possible by default or some Javascripting is required?

Thanks...
Syed

It's currently not supported. However, it's already on the roadmap. I can't say when I'll find the time to investigate it, but it will be definitely added at some point. In the meantime, you might be successful using JavaScript, or the mkdocs-static-i18n plugin which I understand has basic support for this feature.
