Multilingual forms without Joomla language selection

Display a CF form in a specific language within an iframe without Joomla language selection.

Overview

The issue occurred when embedding a multilingual CF form in an iframe on a non-Joomla server, where the previous method for setting the language directly was no longer applicable.
Ensure Joomla multilingual settings are configured correctly, then pass the desired language code directly in the URL when calling the form in the iframe.

Hi Leo,

Just pass the language code in the URL ? how do you activate a specific language on your website ?

Hi Max
We are a foundation, i.e. a non-profit organization, so the site also runs on a outdated SharePoint platform (SharePoint 2007). Unfortunately, we lack money for the individual development of the forms with SharePoint. That's wha i decided years ago for Chronoforms and i am very happy so far. Now we should definitely bring Joomla server to a current version, so i have to do now neverything new with Chronoforms 6.
In SharePoint, i use a WebPart and added the link in a iframe.
You can find the forms (chronoform 3.x) here:

Hi Max

Thanks for your answer (input)! Forget everything that i wrote. I'm pretty inexperienced with Joomla 3.x and the multilingalism.
But your input about "just pass the language code in the URL" was just the right thin. After i set Joomla correctly on multilingualism, i was able to solve my problem with language code in the URL. Thank you ver much and have a nice Day!

Best regards,
Leo
