This is a collection of modules providing multilingual features.
|
| 13 |
These modules will build onto Drupal 6 core features enabling a full multilingual site

i18n: core i18n functionality
|
| 16 |
=============================
|
| 17 |
- Multilingual variables
|
| 18 |
- Extended language API for other modules
|
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
languageicons: language icons for translation links
|
| 21 |
=============
|
| 22 |
This module will be spin-off from the main package
|
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
i18ntaxonomy: Taxonomy translation:
|
| 25 |
====================
|
| 26 |
You can create vocabularies and terms with or without language.
|
| 27 |
- If you set language for a vocabulary/term, that term will just show up for pages in that language
|
| 28 |
- If you set language for a vocabulary, all the terms in that vocabulary will be assigned that language.
|
| 29 |
- When editing nodes, if you change the language for a node, you have to click on 'Preview' to have the right vocabularies/terms for that language. Otherwise, the language/taxonomy data for that node could be inconsistent.
|

|
| 32 |
About language dependent variables:
|
| 33 |
==================================
|
| 34 |
Some site-wide variables, like 'site_name', 'site_slogan', user e-mail contents... have language dependent content.
|
| 35 |
Since I don't like the solution of runing them through the localization system, because this means when you change the 'master' text, you have to re-translate it for every language, I've added this new feature which makes possible to have a list of variables -defined in the config file- which will be kept separated for each language.
|
| 36 |
This part is an add-on, and you can use it or not.
|
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
About language dependent tables
|
| 39 |
===============================
|
| 40 |
Language dependent tables are not needed anymore for multilingual content.
|
| 41 |
This is kept for backwards compatibility, experimentation and may be some use in the future.
|
| 42 |
* This can be used to have per-language data for modules not language-aware, like language statistics... you can experiment...
|
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
Known problems, compatibility issues
|
| 45 |
====================================
|
| 46 |
These modules should be compatible with all Drupal core modules.
