Multilanguage blog

Some of you have noticed that I converted the blog to a new layout at the beginning of the year. It was time to get things in order and push the website more in the direction of a portfolio. By the way, the theme is called Lumin and is available at elegantthemes.

Unfortunately, my previous multilanguage wordpress plugin doesn’t work with the new theme, at least not in the way I want it to. And since Dirty Split is available in several languages, and since a major part of the players/visitors speak English (yes, you guys!), it makes sense to keep the blog both in German and in English. Which means I needed an alternative for maintaining more than one language.

Then I found the qTranslate plugin, which makes it no problem at all to have all content both in German and in English (and even more languages if you want). Works fine so far, and I’m really excited about how easy it is to manage. I can recommend qTranslate to everyone who needs more than one language for their blog.

Although if you don’t trust the automatic translation (I don’t), then you’ll still have to bite the bullet and translate everything by hand.

So long :o)
