Multi language site

…and I’ve now used the plugin Polylang.

I have translated all posts and pages except the presentation page.

Can you tell me please how can I do that?

Thanks in advance…

Hey QuaintJames,

nice idea ! But I don’t know a lot about javascript. Did you have any infomation about ? How to ?

Thanks.

I had the same issues. However, I solve most of them. Let me explain.

I use qTranslate, wich works quite well except for one thing: slugs and (I think because I don’t use it) tags can’t be translated. Despite this, you can manage to translate everything.

There is a “shortcode” you can use. Imagine you have tree languages (en, es, pt). The tittle of a widget can be translate by putting “[:en]English Text[:es]Spanish Text[:pt]Other Language”. It works fine. This can be used along all the theme options text areas.

Regarding the front page and what Zed says, we have a problem with the links. If you put “[:en]http://en.blabla.com[:es]http://es.blabla.com[:pt]http://pt.blabla.com” or whatever, it will not work as this doesn’t validate an URL and the link will not be saved. You will have to edit the files /parabola/admin/sanitize.php and /parabola/admin/settings.php and remove the esc_url_xx() functions of desiged configuration fields. For instance, in sanitize.php, for the URL of the columns of the front page, comment the line:

$input[‘parabola_columnlink1’] = esc_url_raw($input[‘parabola_columnlink1’]);

This is just an brief comments, but hope this help.

PD: Best option is to use a child theme, I know…
PD2: Great theme!
PD3: The theme can include this tricks by default! 😉
