Problem/Motivation

When viewing the list of redirects in /admin/config/search/redirect, the “To” path column always displays URLs with the UI language prefix (e.g., /fr/...) regardless of the actual redirection language defined.

This is misleading, especially in multilingual sites with different source/target path aliases.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a multilingual Drupal site with at least English and French enabled.
  2. Set site default language to English.
  3. Create a node with translations in both languages.
  4. Create a redirect from /test (language = English) to /node/20 (English)
  5. View the redirect list in /admin/config/search/redirect
  6. Change UI language to French

Expected result

The “To” column still shows /en/alias if the redirect is in English.

Actual result

The “To” column shows /fr/..., which does not reflect the redirection language and is misleading.

Additional note

The actual redirection works correctly — however, the displayed paths in the “To” column are incorrect, as they always show the URL with the current UI language prefix instead of the actual redirection language.

Tested MR 169 and works with regards to displaying the correct language prefix by specified language but the destination URL alias is now lost and ends up with only formats such as /fr/node/123 . I believe the fix needs to retain the URL alias too.

Actually no, it works fine, in my case the translated destinations didn't have an alias. RTBC for me!
