<p>As reported in <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/language_hierarchy/-/work_items/3098399" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/language_hierarchy/-/work_items/3098399</a></span>:</p>
<blockquote><p>The query limit in language_hierarchy_query_path_alias_language_fallback_alter() which was introduced at <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/language_hierarchy/-/work_items/2830291" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/language_hierarchy/-/work_items/2830291</a></span>.</p>
<p>We found this while using the layout builder and placing custom blocks with links. All links except one are un-aliased.</p>
<p>The AliasManager::getAliasByPath loads all paths (preloadedPathLookups) and fetch their aliases via Drupal\Core\Path\AliasRepository::preloadPathAlias. In this method multiple paths could be added to the query. LH limits this to only one result which leads to have only one link left with an aliased path.</p>
<p>Example query from AliasRepository::preloadPathAlias (Limit is added by LH):</p>
<pre>SELECT base_table.path AS path, base_table.alias AS alias<br>FROM<br>path_alias base_table<br>LEFT OUTER JOIN language_hierarchy_priority lhp ON base_table.langcode = lhp.langcode<br>WHERE (base_table.status = 1) AND ((base_table.path LIKE '/node/81' ESCAPE '\\') OR (base_table.path LIKE '/node/73' ESCAPE '\\')) AND (base_table.langcode IN ('de', 'und'))<br>ORDER BY lhp.priority DESC, base_table.id ASC<br>LIMIT 1 OFFSET 0</pre><p>What happens if we remove the limit?</p>
