Support for multilanguage sites, Internationalization (I18N)
(2013-06-21, 17:58:23)Draxeiro Wrote: Lately I've had various projects needing multi-language functionality and I'm starting to run into some snags concerning the workings of the i18n plugin.

Please correct me if I am wrong here but right now creation of pages in one of the additional languages is basically linked to the default language. If the page is not there in the default language it will not show in navigation of the additional language. Correct?

Yes, the default language page is always required, e.g. parent and menu order are only defined there. The idea behind the initial version of the plugin was simply
  • there are no special language links
  • if the user's language settings list any other than the default language, check if the page exists in one of these languages and display it, otherwise display the default language.

However, in every day practise the need is definitely there to be able to create pages exclusively in the non-default language. So in other words for the languages to have separate content.

I hope this is functionality you are willing to add to your plugin. As it would make it just about perfect.

I fear this would mean rewriting most of the plugin - especially the navigation part. I'll look into it, when I have some time.
I18N, I18N Search, I18N Gallery, I18N Special Pages - essential plugins for multi-language sites.
