Hi,

I am trying to get the Apollo localization working with ifinity sitemap and urlrewrite. I am first digging into the sitemap. Erik has been very helpful by supplying me a dedicated PL3 which can pass the language and portalid so that the localized tabs are collected. What I have understood is that in PL5 this will become standard. So besides getLocalizedTab() you now have getLocalizedTab(language)  and getLocalizedTab(language, portalId).

So far so good. So I get a localized TabInfo from Apollo. But then the http urlrewriter of DNN does what is given in next piece of code (DNN 4.8.4).

At (A) if you have only one local installed and not enable language in url you get the thread's culture name instead of the language you have defined.

At (B) you get the DNN tabs instead of the localized tab sent true the parameter. I actually do no understand why this loop is required? I believe removing it will speed up performance significantly. If you pass a TabInfo, why check it again if it is existing?

Any help appreciated.
