    Use the extension repository. It is built into Contao.

    The more people using Contao the better, and new people are very welcome. But even though you are new, you can still put some effort into it. I don't think you even searched for your answer: http://www.contao.org/repository.html

    Hi KK
    In your backend menu under "System" you'll see "Extension catalog" .
    Locate the extension you want, click on the [green] name of it, click the install button at the bottom of the screen that you see, and follow through from there

    Hi KK, welcome.
    The said selectbox called “Fallback-Page” is under page settings. Go to Site structures -> Click Edit Page button. now under pages meta information you'll get among others like page title, Language, Robots tag, describtion you'll have Fallback-Page.

    Hi KK005,

    may we assume that you set up a page of type "Website root" in your "Site structure" for your first language and marked as "Language fallback"?
    If this is the case: Have you duplicated the entire site structure under this starting point for your second language?
    If this is also true, then you find this select field for all the "Regular pages" in the corresponding page settings.

    I'll try and post an export of the Im.Ex. extension I'll be testing this week. Then you'll get a setup of multilingual content. This way you'll have it set up and you can follow the example. If you can't wait;

    You first need to add a site root for each language. So you need to add a new page and choose page type "root page". Right now you do not have any. Then move all pages inside this root page.

    Also you should install the "changelanguage" extension. This is the name so you can find it in the repository. When finished the root page get's an extra field defining it as the base language (or something like that).

    Now the fastest way is to copy the root page and all subpages (green plus with yellow arrow). Paste it after the existing (not as subpage). You end at the root pages properties page, edit "Foreign-Domain Root Page" set it to the original page. If you would then change each pages language to the one you need (edit multiple is the fastest way). The thing you need to do now is associate each page with the original page. If you edit a page an extra option is added "Fallback-page"; you need to select each pages original language equal.

    The final thing is add a module of the type changelanguage which adds options to insert a language switcher to your layout.

    Hi, as xchs has asked, did you made/duplicate a root for the second language? I am just asking this coz looking at the screenshot you provide, I doubt of it. And another thing in the screenshots you have provided for german language wrong input. Its - 'de' not 'ge' as you have in language.

    Please look at following screenshots if it helps.
    Site Structure with 3 website roots:

    Fallback setting :

    Is your main language german or serbia? In the screenshots img577 and img 810 you have Language fallback checked in both. The Language fallback should be checked only for the main language (website root). And for each pages in the 2nd language (2nd website root ) under edit page you'll have the options to set the Fallback-Page as I've shown in previous post.

    Ok, then as tsarma said do the following:
    • Root page "Metz-german": Check the option "Language fallback"[/*:m:nt72im63]
    • Root page "Metz-Serbia": Uncheck the option "Language fallback" and replace in the field "Language" the ISO 639-1 language code "en" with "sr"[/*:m:nt72im63]
    After that, you can assign for all the "Regular pages" under the Serbian site structure the corresponding fallback page from the german website root.
