They need to make an easy menu to change languages in their modules depending on what a user chooses, including e-shop module.

Regarding normal text pages you need to do the linking via images / text yourself. See this example : http://thassos.ucoz.com/

HLA, Creating a multilingual website without using widgets such as Google translator widget on your website would require creating a custom switcher on your website as Urs has mentioned. Please go through the link above. For your information, Google Chrome has a built in automatic translation extension which automatically translates a website to the users default language.

Best regards.

Clyde, Let's give it a try! smile

I will try to explain how i did on http://fundatiasky.org, maybe you would find it useful.

First language: RO (Romanian):

  • Top part of the website - $GLOBAL_AHEADER$ (INCLUDE $SMENU_1$)
  • The first container - $GLOBAL_CLEFTER$ ( if needed)
  • Site pages - $CONTENT$
  • The second container - $GLOBAL_DRIGHTER$ ( if needed)
  • Bottom part of the website - $GLOBAL_BFOOTER$


Visual example


Second language: EN (ENGLISH): Use a modul (I used the Site News modul)

Create different Global blocks and Menus for each language
Example:
  • Top part of the website EN - $GLOBAL_ENHEADER$ (INCLUDE $SMENU_2$)
  • The first container - $GLOBAL_ENLEFTER$ ( if needed)
  • Site pages - $CONTENT$
  • The second container - $GLOBAL_ENRIGHTER$ ( if needed)
  • Bottom part of the website - $GLOBAL_ENFOOTER$


Third language: FR (FRENCH): Use a modul (I used the Blog modul)

Create different Global blocks and Menus for each language
Example:
  • Top part of the website FR - $GLOBAL_FRHEADER$ (INCLUDE $SMENU_3$)
  • The first container - $GLOBAL_FRLEFTER$ ( if needed)
  • Site pages - $CONTENT$
  • The second container - $GLOBAL_FRRIGHTER$ ( if needed)
  • Bottom part of the website - $GLOBAL_FRFOOTER$


Sorry for my bad english wacko

There is a way to change language with some kind of jquery tabs without using other modules / changing URL's? smile

I tryed several options based on this proposal, but every time I have same problem, and that's whatever I create, it gets created into existing tempalte...so basicaly I have page in page, even if I check "apply personal tempalte to this apge" box. This option with global block sounds great and it have potential, but only if I find way to "remove" basic template from page I'm creating...here is the screenshoot http://prntscr.com/69uya7

HLA, when you apply a personal template to a page, a separate template appears in the Design Customization section, and you can edit this template as you need.
