Linking to the current issue in your language

  • Article

We've received several requests recently to make it easy for folks with blogs or other Web sites to link to whatever is the current issue of the magazine, and to do so in their preferred language.  As such, we've put up a new redirection page that provides this behavior.  Simply link to https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue, and you'll always end up at the page for whatever issue is current.  And if you append a valid "loc" query string parameter, you'll end up at the current issue in whatever language you specify.  For example, these are the links you can use to reach the current issue in all languages currently available:

English: https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue?loc=en
Spanish: https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue?loc=es
French: https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue?loc=fr
German: https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue?loc=de
Italian: https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue?loc=it
Brazilian Portuguese: https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue?loc=pt
Russian: https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue?loc=ru
Simplified Chinese: https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue?loc=zh
Traditional Chinese: https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue?loc=zx
Korean: https://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/currentissue?loc=ko
