Website in two languages

Heyy everyone,

What is the best way to make your website in two languages (only the front-end).
We want to make the website in English and Dutch (And maby German)

Re: Website in two languages

We're actually talking about this very topic over here:

By far the easiest way is to just serve two separate page trees for the different languages and two sets of fields for any module content. Then check $bigtree["path"][0] for which language you're on and use the right fields from the module content based on the language.

Thanks, that sounds like a good way to do it. You could also provide language options on the actual webpage.
