schema of urls Possible "SEO" issue with Prestashop Schema of URLs feature

[Djo FRS]

The issue occurs in:
https://mysite.com/admin/index.php/configure/shop/seo-urls/ → Schema of URLs tab, when modifying the URLs.

Example:

• EN version → Route to brand = brand/{id}-{rewrite}
• FR version → Route to brand = brand/{id}-{rewrite}

But ideally it should we should be allowed to translate the term:

• EN → Route to brand = brand/{id}-{rewrite}
• FR → Route to brand = marque/{id}-{rewrite}

The problem appears when using a "static" word in the route and the site is multilingual.
Question: How can we adapt this static word depending on the language?

maybe this will help:

 

Keep the canonical route as brand/{id}-{rewrite}, and add language-specific aliases via web-server rewrites that point to the same controller. Example for Apache + language prefixes (/fr and /en):

In Shop Parameters → Traffic & SEO, keep: Route to brand: brand/{id}-{rewrite}

In your shop’s .htaccess (top, before the PrestaShop block, or inside the PS block but above other rules), add:

# --- Language-specific alias for brand -> marque (FR) ---
RewriteRule ^fr/marque/([0-9]+)-([^/]+)/?$ index.php?controller=manufacturer&id_manufacturer=$1 [QSA,L]

# Optional EN alias (keeps both working) ---
RewriteRule ^en/brand/([0-9]+)-([^/]+)/?$ index.php?controller=manufacturer&id_manufacturer=$1 [QSA,L]
