The language_redirect extension page appears to be dead. Just getting
a 404. http://svn1.hosted-projects.com/medlar/language_redirect_extension/language_redirect/
If you could push this up somewhere, it would be great, even if we
have to hack on it for a bit to get it working.

There are a number of existing extensions for handling language
switching. One we used successfully on con-way.com is called
"language_redirect", which expects that you'll have a different root
for each language and uses the Accept-Language header to
automatically select the appropriate one. This is the same behavior
you'll see on Radiant's flagship site, ruby-lang.org. I'm not sure
if a working version is out in the ether - let me know if there
isn't and I'll get you one.

HI Mohit
Very interesting ... how did you proceed when entering the articles
and setting the different language portions ... no core
modification ? (DB records)
could this be managed in an extension ?

Hi Ben
I discussed this issue with a friend of mine involved in many
localizations (translation company)... he said exactly what you
wrote.
Few , actually very few sites needs a true mixin of multi-
languages contents: one in which the visitor enter in english
and need to get a spanish version of one article... generally,
the visitor wants to choose one language and stick to it...
It would be better to work on a good initial design in the
default language, then buying or building admin tools that help
in duplicating the default site, localizing all existing
contents to another language, and deploying multi sub-domains ,
one for each language..
Radiant is lite and simple to use, trying to add in core multi-
language capabilities will transform it into a 'refinery' ...
better keep it clean, small and green ....
adding extensions...
(I have been deeply looking into the Zope/Plone CMS for a
customer... an example of refinery)
That's what I am going to do for my next customer :
default site :en http://www.mycustomersite.com -> proxy
URL to http://www.mycustomersite.com/en/
duplicate to sub-domain http://fr.mycustomersite.com -> proxy
URL to http://www.mycustomersite.com/fr/ , localizing the
content
.. and so on
why not a localization extension wich will had a language bar
view and manage all localization parameters
I just have a localization bar that only finds if the article
exists in another language (based on the convention that all
languages have the same slug with only a different language
portion /en/article or /fr/article and so on. It is assumed that /
en /fr /jp will have completely different content in my case.
Essentially, it is also assumed that the language maintainers are
different people. Further, not all content is available in all
supported languages. The loss is that the slug will always be in
a single language.
I use this as demonstrated on: http://t-engine.onghu.com/en/articles/booting-t-engine-from-usb/
(thebar shows 'en' and 'th')
On another page: http://t-engine.onghu.com/cn/articles/te-recommended-reading/
it shows 'cn' and 'en'
and so on.
Cheers,
Mohit.
