Taxonomy Localization - Sitefinity - General Discussions

I have a project that I'm using some of the examples posted in these forums and the developer's guide to get taxonomy terms using the API. It's a bilingual site (English and French) but I'm seemingly only able to get the English versions of the terms.

I'm using the following:

TaxonomyManager tManager = TaxonomyManager.GetManager();

ITaxonomy categoriesTaxonomy = tManager.GetTaxonomy(TaxonomyManager.CategoriesTaxonomyId);

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi Kevin,

You can set the CurrentUICulture of the current thread to the culture you would like to get the Taxonomy for, then get the taxonomy, then switch the culture back to its original value:

var savedCulture = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture;

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("fi");

TaxonomyManager tManager = TaxonomyManager.GetManager();

var tagsTaxonomy = tManager.GetTaxonomy(TaxonomyManager.TagsTaxonomyId);

var firstTaxon = tagsTaxonomy.Taxa.First();

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = savedCulture;

Best wishes,
