Hello all! I'm building my own language switcher because i'd like my switcher to be added the mobile user menu. I have got it working, it switches to the language that I click on. But now I have ran into the issue that when you are on a page like "/contact/" you'd still be redirected to the homepage.

I have tried a lot and I can't seem to get it working. Can anybody with more experience point me into the right direction?
Much appreciated, thanks!

                ->csrf() // Add CSRF token
				->setQueryString( 'ref', base64_encode( $currentUrl ) ); // set ref url

should do it.

You can always add the 'ref' parameter to an url which contains the base64 encoded target URL.

Much appreciated, thanks!

So you added this to your code:

$currentUrl = \IPS\Request::i()->url(); // Get the current page URL

And never used anymore? You must find that code is useful but didn't tried to explore further? :)

Thanks @Daniel F, this got it working :).

@DawPi At first I had something like the code below there, but this didn't work so I removed it, but forgot the remove $currentUrl. That's why haha.

->setQueryString( 'return', base64_encode( $currentUrl ) );
