Multilingual site, sh404SEF - logo and menu issues

I beleive the same issue could be related to other templates as well - I don't use many - so tried and replicated the behaviour in Events and Simplicity.

I'm very concerned with SEO issues, and like my sites to have clean URL structure. So all of my multilingual sites (and developing for tourism there are many) have the following setup: default language (most often english) don't use language code - so it's www.mysite.com. All other language use two letter codes on all pages www.mysite.com/it/ , www.mysite.com/de/ etc...

I successifuly accomplish that with Joomla SEO/sh404SEF. However, I have problems with Gavick templates. Both logo link, and 'home' in the menu point to default site root on all languages (I guess expected behaviour would be for Joomla to forward based on cookie - which I would like to avoid).
Is there a way to solve this issue?

Hi

Joomla should take the current lang value from url if it was not provided while hitting any link. I think sh404 may have remembered a link www.mysite.com from the default setup and if simply rewritting it. Please try disable sh404 and see if it works. If it does than find and remove this redirection or simply add redirections for rest of languages. Tell me the url to Your site please.
