Hi, I am working on a site designed to be bilingual and am using OP 1.7. I subthemed the OP theme and being new to Drupal, it took me a while to figure out that the frontpage layout was handled by the frontpage context item. So my aim is to duplicate that frontpage context, let's say to a frontpage_fr and make the same blocks available, but with French content. My problem is that it did not work when i specified the path as "fr". I looked into and saw that the Context module in version 3 takes in account language as a context factor, which would be ideal for me, but it seems that even OP 2 uses the 2.x version of Context. Is there another way to do this in OP 1.7 or am i doomed to remove my hair one at a time?

Just to be clear.. You cloned
Just to be clear..
You cloned the frontpage context and called it frontpage_fr
You changed the path of this frontpage_fr to fr
Your french language content is retrieved at path domain.com/fr
Question, what happens when in site information, you change your site front path to fr with the frontpage context disabled and frontpage_fr enabled?

yes
It won't display anything, i guess that for drupal having "www.mysite.com/en/node" and "www.mysite.com/fr/node" are the same value, so only the existing Context is activated.
