Hi @ひめじまあけの / Chyser. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- It sounds like you are having trouble getting both languages to work in your Nuxt i18n setup—when you have two languages configured, only the default language works, and the second one does not. Based on the knowledge sources, a common cause for this issue is misconfiguration of the i18n module, especially where the i18n options are placed. For Nuxt 3 with @nuxtjs/i18n, the configuration for locales, defaultLocale, and detectBrowserLanguage should be in your nuxt.config.ts file, not in a separate i18n.config.ts. The i18n.config.ts is only for Vue I18n-specific options (like messages, legacy mode, etc.) and not for the Nuxt i18n module options. Example of correct configuration in nuxt.config.ts:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxtjs/i18n'],
  i18n: {
    locales: [
      { code: 'en', iso: 'en-US', name: 'English' },
      { code: 'fr', iso: 'fr-FR', name: 'Français' }
    ],
    defaultLocale: 'en',
    detectBrowserLanguage: {
      useCookie: true,
      cookieKey: 'i18n_redirected',
      redirectOn: 'root'
    },
    vueI18n: './i18n.config.ts' // Path to your Vue I18n config
  }
})

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxtjs/i18n'],
  i18n: {
    locales: [
      { code: 'en', iso: 'en-US', name: 'English' },
      { code: 'fr', iso: 'fr-FR', name: 'Français' }
    ],
    defaultLocale: 'en',
    detectBrowserLanguage: {
      useCookie: true,
      cookieKey: 'i18n_redirected',
      redirectOn: 'root'
    },
    vueI18n: './i18n.config.ts' // Path to your Vue I18n config
  }
})

And in i18n.config.ts:

export default defineI18nConfig(() => ({
  legacy: false,
  locale: 'en',
  messages: {
    en: { welcome: 'Welcome' },
    fr: { welcome: 'Bienvenue' }
  }
}))

export default defineI18nConfig(() => ({
  legacy: false,
  locale: 'en',
  messages: {
    en: { welcome: 'Welcome' },
    fr: { welcome: 'Bienvenue' }
  }
}))

If you put the locales and defaultLocale in i18n.config.ts instead of nuxt.config.ts, only the default language will work and the second language will not be recognized. This is a common mistake, as highlighted in the knowledge sources:

This block of config should be in the nuxt.config.ts file and not in the i18n.config.ts :
locales: [
    { code: 'en', iso: 'en-US' },
    { code: 'fr', iso: 'fr-FR' }
],
defaultLocale: 'en',
// strategy: 'no_prefix',
detectBrowserLanguage: {
    useCookie: true,
    cookieKey: 'i18n_redirected',
    redirectOn: 'root',
    // alwaysRedirect: true
},
locales: [
    { code: 'en', iso: 'en-US' },
    { code: 'fr', iso: 'fr-FR' }
],
defaultLocale: 'en',
// strategy: 'no_prefix',
detectBrowserLanguage: {
    useCookie: true,
    cookieKey: 'i18n_redirected',
    redirectOn: 'root',
    // alwaysRedirect: true
},
Nuxt 3 i18n browser detection not working

What you should do: - Move all Nuxt i18n module options (locales, defaultLocale, detectBrowserLanguage, etc.) to nuxt.config.ts. - Only put Vue I18n options (messages, legacy, etc.) in i18n.config.ts. If you follow this structure, both languages should work as expected. If you still have issues, double-check that your language files or message objects are correctly set up and that the codes match between your config and your usage. If you need more help, please provide your current nuxt.config.ts and i18n.config.ts files for review. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

can you give me locales configurate @kapa.ai

kapa.ai•5mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Certainly! Here is an example of a correct locales configuration for Nuxt i18n, based on the knowledge sources:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxtjs/i18n'],
  i18n: {
    locales: [
      { code: 'en', iso: 'en-US', name: 'English' },
      { code: 'fr', iso: 'fr-FR', name: 'Français' }
    ],
    defaultLocale: 'en',
    detectBrowserLanguage: {
      useCookie: true,
      cookieKey: 'i18n_redirected',
      redirectOn: 'root'
    },
    vueI18n: './i18n.config.ts'
  }
})

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxtjs/i18n'],
  i18n: {
    locales: [
      { code: 'en', iso: 'en-US', name: 'English' },
      { code: 'fr', iso: 'fr-FR', name: 'Français' }
    ],
    defaultLocale: 'en',
    detectBrowserLanguage: {
      useCookie: true,
      cookieKey: 'i18n_redirected',
      redirectOn: 'root'
    },
    vueI18n: './i18n.config.ts'
  }
})

- Place this configuration in your nuxt.config.ts file. - The locales array defines each language with its code, iso, and name. - The defaultLocale sets the default language. - The vueI18n option points to your Vue I18n config file, where you define your translation messages. This structure is confirmed in the knowledge sources and is required for both languages to work properly in your Nuxt app Nuxt 3 i18n browser detection not working. If you need an example of the i18n.config.ts file for the messages, let me know! ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

where can i use my en.json and tr.json @kapa.ai

kapa.ai•5mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- You should use your en.json and tr.json files as language files for your translations. According to the knowledge sources, you can specify a langDir (language directory) in your Nuxt i18n configuration and reference your JSON files in the locales array in your nuxt.config.ts file. Here’s how you can configure it:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxtjs/i18n'],
  i18n: {
    langDir: 'locales/', // directory where your en.json and tr.json are stored
    locales: [
      { code: 'en', iso: 'en-US', name: 'English', file: 'en.json' },
      { code: 'tr', iso: 'tr-TR', name: 'Türkçe', file: 'tr.json' }
    ],
    defaultLocale: 'en',
    vueI18n: './i18n.config.ts'
  }
})

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxtjs/i18n'],
  i18n: {
    langDir: 'locales/', // directory where your en.json and tr.json are stored
    locales: [
      { code: 'en', iso: 'en-US', name: 'English', file: 'en.json' },
      { code: 'tr', iso: 'tr-TR', name: 'Türkçe', file: 'tr.json' }
    ],
    defaultLocale: 'en',
    vueI18n: './i18n.config.ts'
  }
})

- Place your en.json and tr.json files inside the locales/ directory at the root of your project. - The file property in each locale object should match the filename of your JSON translation file. This approach is shown in the knowledge sources and is the recommended way to use external JSON files for translations in Nuxt 3 with @nuxtjs/i18n i18n is not working after update nuxt to 3.8.0. If you follow this structure, Nuxt will automatically load your en.json and tr.json files for the respective languages. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
