[Bug?] 404 page not generated for selected language about mkdocs-static-i18n

[kamilkrzyskow]

AFAIK only one 404 page is allowed, as the web server has to load a working file with a proper error message and styling. As for why the 404 page is in French/Japanese is because it's the last language that is built, and therefore overwrites the English (initial) version.

I don't think there is an easy solution to this, because the 404 html source is rendered in another language, so even if there was some kind of working solution to remember the selected language it still wouldn't help in this case 🤔

The only solution I see right now, is to override the 404 page yourself and define your own additional logic on the JavaScript side to render the correct language, which of course I understand, isn't ideal.

Same as @kamilkrzyskow this is problem is tied to MkDocs itself and the plugin can't have a generic solution for all themes either...
