Not just the etomite system.. but can you have a translation of your website?

like ~ our church has english / polish,

and on our currant CMS (which is crappy and expensive) each page - while editing, has 2 boxes, one english / one polish.. and then on the website, there is a eng/pol button to switch between websites....

http://phsda.com <-- mite mite ~ ehheh.. (look, look~~ - in japanese..)

can this be done in etomite?

Several members have designed multi-language sites using Etomite... Perhaps they can explain how they have gone about creating and maintaining those sites... I am familiar with the language specific content boxes you have described and we are considering a similar concept for the next major release...

Hmm.. you can easy create a website in two or more languages, but you will have to create every page separately. Not like your said in "two separate editing boxes". You should simply have different language templates and build your menu like this:

-English
--MainPageEN
--SecondPageEN
----SubSecondPageEN
--ThirdPageEN
-Japanese
--MainPageJP
--SecondPageJP
----SubSecondPageJP
--ThirdPageJP

This is even better in many aspects.
The links to the correct page translation you will have to add to every page. E.g. on MainPageEN will be a link to MainPageJP.. But I am not sure if this is needed at all. Because, if person knows English he will read English part of the website. Why does someone need translation of every specific page? Only if he wants to learn languages...

Long time passed...
I have to do a multilanguage website (at least 4 language).
There is some news or I take for good the suggestion of 0zz?

The perfect would be to have multiple "content" showing on a user selection...
Something like posted here ( http://www.etomite.c...h__1#entry50560 ) will work?

Thank you,
