Multi language for the website

[ron13315]

Hello, Is anybody here know the tricks for the website to determine user from different location to use their language?

I am thinking to set my website language by location of the visitors.

Example
people from China access, it will show in Chinese and People in United State, it will show in English.

First of all, I need to know, you are using wordpress cms or a custom website (built from scratch)?

I would use Google website translator service for what you are needing. https://translate.google.com/manager/website/

Let me know your platform ie wordpress, joomla etc so that i can help you out.

Yes I am using wordpress.

Yes I am using wordpress.

You can setup WordPress Multisite Network to create more sites on a site
like

yourdomain.com/site1
yourdomain.com/site2
yourdomain.com/site3
yourdomain.com/site4
................

and on each site, you will create a language for it

but you will get any problems if you use Multisite Network

I recommend you should duplicate wordpress cms into each different folders and create each language in each that wordpress folder.

It will be easy for beginners or manage your site later.

Hi sir hassan, is this plugins can determine the visitors location and change the language automatically?

webdesign

You need a script to detect IP location on your visitors

for example:

IP address belongs to US , redirect to yourdomain.com/site1
IP address belongs to Canada, redirect to yourdomain.com/site2
IP address belongs to UK redirect to yourdomain.com/site3
...etc

The Multisite Language Switcher enables you to manage translations of posts, pages, custom post types, categories, tags and custom taxonomies for change language automatically you need take a look at [URLnf="https://wordpress.org/plugins/geographical-redirect/"]Geo Redirect[/URLnf].
