I would not use qtranslate anymore for a new website, neither xlanguage…..
Too much trouble and performance problems once the site gets big. Much better to set up SVN or similar to manage your sites in different languages simultaniously so no need to do maintenance twice..
I’ve just installed the plugin but I don’ t really understand this message at all when I set up the permlinks options:
“Options cannot be saved because:
The permalinks supported mode must include the primary appending position.
The Square Bracket Syntax must be consists of a-z, A-Z, 0-9, – (dash) and _ (underscore) only.”
After I edit an article with Windows Live Writer all the text in the article is shown, regardless of the language. I must open it in WYSIWYG editor in WordPress and save it from there. Only then it looks OK again.
We are using your plugin xLanguage. It works great!! but we have a doubt. Now we are using ‘ugly’ permalinks like ‘http://xxxxx/?p=123′, and now we’d like to use pretty permalinks like ‘http://xxxxxx/2010/02/17/sample-post/’. I have tried to do it, but the permalinks are not good, because use the full title (english|spanish) like this ‘http://xxxxxxx/2010/02/17/english title spanish title/lang/en’.
Can I use your plugin with pretty permalinks like that? Please, explain me how.

At first thank you very much the nice plugin. This really works great. However, I want to put the language switcher in the header (not as a sidebar widget). How can I do that. I guess, I have to edit header.php. Thanks
There’s literally hundreds of opportunities out there, including local groups, but I’m going to list some of the best online penpal sites and my experiences with them. Thanks alot for the plugin by the way. Appreciate it. Cheers

One of the best ways of learning a language is interacting with natives. There’s literally hundreds of opportunities out there, including local groups, but I’m going to list some of the best online penpal sites and my experiences with them.
Hello Sam and all the folks who are helping throughout the comments. First of all I would like to thank you for this great plugin and for the support you are offering.
I have a question I couldn’t solve after going through the 770+ comments.
I’m trying to apply the translation to widgets. It works fine with titles. It also works fine with text… while it is a single line text. But, what if the content of the widget is something more complicated, ie, a bunch of HTML with more than one single line? Could I use the “normal” text option, ie, the span tags? It seems I can’t, but maybe I haven’t done it properly.
it works perfectly; just be sure to double check how the admin side works in chrome tho as i have spent many hours trying to figure out why the plugin wasn’t working and eventually i have tried to use in firefox and it was a browser issue, i’m talking about applying a language to the text from the admin panel, in chrome doesn’t let you do it while in firefox worked as a charm.
Thanks a lot for you effort, it’s brilliant.

This plugin works by inserting W3C standardized tag in the post content, and a XML parser will be involved to extract them when served, extracting all elements with the matching lang=”..” tag. The permalinks and RSS feeds are also presented correctly. For single line data such as post title, a special but simple syntax is introduced.

Hi,
I’ve just installed the plugin but I don’ t really understand this message at all when I set up the permlinks options:
“Options cannot be saved because:
The permalinks supported mode must include the primary appending position.
The Square Bracket Syntax must be consists of a-z, A-Z, 0-9, – (dash) and _ (underscore) only.”
I choosed that on Primary Appending Position:
” Prefix looks like http://example.com/blogurl/lang/en/archives/123. This has better compability with other plugins”
And that on Square Bracket Syntax:
“/”
Any HELP please???
