Hello,

i have a ? about using i18n module. sorry if the question was already posted but i still cant find the solution.
I have 3 languages of my site, each time i click at one of the lang. All translated content and interface changes.. simple.

My question is to get un advice, and to be sure that i undestand the functionality. for the moment i have this ideas:

1) i i've to add the aliases for each page. Ex: for the page en/node/10(en) i have to put 2 aliases: en/node/20 (fr) and en/node/30(ru). so if my current page is fr/node/20(fr) i passe to en/node/10(en) by clicking en/node/20

problem: i cant add 2 aliases for one page and i think this way takes a lot of work and time!!!

2) its works using Links to node translations, but its not the same i want...

am i wrong? if no, so how its finaly works?
i'm not a prof in drupal and english too ;)

Thanks

Hello!

If solved a two language setup as follows:

Add a taxonomy called "language" and feed this up with the languages you like, ie. "english", "italiono", "dutch" ...

Now you have to tag every news posting with the apropriate language. You can either put a front page at start to choose the language, or install a menu that needs one or two klicks to choose it.

You simple ask drupal to find all postings with the taxonomy term that links to the language, like "?q=taxonomy/term/22"

That enables you to add as many language as you like. You will have descent content for the choosen language.

Hope that helps at least by finding the right approach.
