multi-menu in multi-language - how-to?

doekia

Hum... thanks for the reply, been a newby doesn't mean I haven't read the documentation. I have indeed.

The document explains how to implement a multi-language menu, but not multi-menu in multi-language.
The EN pseudo page at level 0 needs to be in a menu id hence all child page are only visible if that first top-level get triggered. At least from my tries.

So far the more I have digg thru the code the more I think there is a design issue in the sense that WB framework DOES NOT cope properly with languages the solution is more or less a hack implementing something from a framework not designed to do so.

Try to implement this:
menu[1](main) = "Home,Products,Services,Portfolio,Employment"
menu[2](top) = "Sitemap,Contact"
menu[3](footer) = "Terms of Use, Privacy Policies"
menu[4](language) = "FR,EN,DE,NL,IT,ES" you can add your prefered one here :-)

Emphasis the fact that Services is spelled Services in french, english, Portfolio is likely to be the same in many languages

There is a good explanation at http://help.WebsiteBaker.org/pages/en/advanced-docu/designer-guide/multilingual-websites.php.
And you have to choose a template suitable for multi-menu.

In the menu "settings", click "advanced settings" and select "Page Languages".
Also use the language as your top menu, al the individual pages as submenu's.

But first of all, read the documentation in the above link. It's also available for DE, NL and UK.

Hi,

First I have to admit I am a total newby.
My question relates to implementing multi-menu and multi-language. I have spent quite some time trying to implement this but failed.

I have my multi-language setup according to the Advanced documentation how-to and then my second menu (children of the top language?) displays empty (\n).

I plan not to have any intro page

Hint, advise and step by step will be pretty much appreciated.

Cheers,
