I am working on a WordPress website, and need to add a multilingual plugin.
Here is my problem: I don't want any automatic translation, but flags that lead to absolute links, as every language will be on a different domain name.
I can't find any existing plugin that is doing this, and I can't make my own one as I don't have enough time and my PHP skills are low.
Do you think about a plugin I could use for this? Or a plugin I could download and modify?
Thank you.
WPML allows you to use multiple domains for multiple languages. It is very reliable and offers many other possibilities.
They have a tutorial on their page: Multilingual Site Network with Domain Mapping.

We have shifted our website from php to Joomla but it's creating dynamic URLs and google indexing them.
Our website is currently reachable via all of these URLs:
ww.w.example.com
ww.example.com
www.example.comwww.example.com
www.example.comadfadfwww.example.com
Why is this happening?
Check this one at first .The article is what you need.

I have my non-wordpress blog in English and now I need to have the same blog in French and Spanish. I not only need menu buttons, breadcrumbs, etc but also the actual content of the articles too. So when users choose "Spanish" from the top bar, they will see my blog in Spanish, including the articles translated.
I was thinking about using .pot files. But articles body contents are generally long and I am not even sure if I could accomplish this with .pot
Make a subdomain/subdirectory for each new language. But if in the future I decide to support other languages, it will be crazy to maintain. Ie, if I need to change the logo I would have to change the logo in all subdirectory/subdomain websites.
What is the best way to accomplish multilanguage site?
Thank you
You have properly outlined main problems raising in the process of creating and maintaining multilingual website. All of this problems are solved by WPML - Wordpress Multilingual Plugin. It is most popular, very flexible and powerful system for translating websites.
I am thinking of running a website that sells Joomla template (similar like TemplateMonster). When I look at TemplateMonster, what come up into my mind is they have multiple instances of Joomla and they populate the content of every single of them depending on the template.
Is this the only way to achieve this? What if I have 100 templates, do I have to copy paste 100 Joomla?
These are the examples of two different contents:

Best Regards,
I think simplest way would be adding ?template=beez3 to the uri.
More complicated to use extension like Virtual Domains.
Current menu item (and so template) is set based on rules like current URI. Extension is little tricky to setup but could be exactly what you are looking for.
Now I am Working on a Wordpress Project. and my problem is in my project site must work in two language Like this If i select one of this language site Must Change the language as i select please help me to find a solution :'( (I wont need a plugin because its not change it proper )
You say you don't need a plugin, but WPML is cheap and the best at doing this, by far. I have used it personally doing client work and it is the best multi-language plugin for WordPress I've used.
I am using gtranslate plugin only and it is working very well. It has Translations between 58 languages with the support of flags.
In the settings panel of this plugin, put translation "on fly". Then it will not reload the page for translation.
Just Try it. Cheers!!!
I need to setup a blog using wordpress engine but i need it support multi languages (3 languages), currently i am thinking of using custom field to identify the language of current post though i knew thats not a best practices, does anyone has better suggestions?
I've tested 2 plugins that both looked very promising: qTranslate and Gengo
qTranslate works by adding inputs for all used languages for each post, Gengo used separate posts and links them in a "post Y is a translation of post X" way, which I preferred much (because it allowed me to not translate everything) and it worked fine for me.
I have used the xlanguage plugin and I am happy with it.
xlanguage site
I fi i remember well, wordpress uses a gettext "customization" library to translate itself.
I think you can make some options based on a session variable, about the translation files you're going to read.
Try using plugin wordpress WPML.
