Do you need just *two* languages (e.g. your local language and English) or "multi" language capability?

Why this is useful information

andy inman's picture

From a developer point of view, writing add-on modules which only have to deal with two languages can be a lot simpler than having to deal with a large (or even "infinite") number of languages. Or, it might be possible to handle a large number of languages but performance-tune for just two languages. It depends on a lot of factors of course, but it's useful information to have, IMO.

Am I understanding this correctly ?

This is a function that allows users to select a local language or English ?

This is one of the functions I miss from drupal :(

Getting English and a Local Language content

Can't you just set the English language content to "no language information" and then set preferences to show chosen language or no language information content?

Am I understanding?

I'm not sure what your question is! To get non-English languages working in Drupal you need to activate the "locale" module. To have a multi-language site you need to install and activate the i18n module (or other similar module.)
