Make Leganto permalinks and front page available in different languages by including language parameter in the URL
At present, there is no language parameter in the URL for Leganto permalinks or the Leganto front page, which means that even if we toggle the language from our default (English) to another language, and then copy a permalink, the permalink will default to English when opened.
This is a problem for us as, in Wales, both English and Welsh are given equal status under Welsh Government language standards, and Welsh must not be treated less favourably than English. We need to provide links to Welsh language reading lists for courses taught through the medium of Welsh, which should not default to English on click.

Once this has been done, we also need the ability to add language-specific URLs for the help menu, as was done for the Primo main menu: https://ideas.exlibrisgroup.com/forums/308176-primo/suggestions/33568048-menu-tile-urls-must-be-customizable-by-language?tracking_code=0bfb951c822b85d1e2869964ebd67164

I second that.
We are an university with a lot of international students, so we offer everything in German and English. Therefore if a students comes from the EN interface of our LMS we'd like them to arrive at the English interface of Leganto.
There should really be a language parameter that can be either used in an URL you put somewhere on your website, or that can be set according to an LTI parameter.Veronika
