Bilingual blog

  • Unknown's avatar

    I am trying to set up a bilingual blog (English and Greek). I am a newbie so I may be missing something…
    Reading the support for multilingual blogs, I excluded option 1 (one blog, one post), as it gets too confusing for the readers. The two-blog option will split your blog traffic…. So I went for the one blog, two posts option. This is not an ideal solution either, because I get all my posts twice in my home page (both in English and Greek) , or I have to use a static page, which I wanted to avoid.. I am doing anything wrong?
    Also, I get the English menu in the navigation bar, and the greek menu on the side bar…
    Is there any better solution? I would like to have two navigation bars, one in each language. Is that possible?
    I read that there is a solution for bilingual blogs with blogger:
    http://www.cemspot.com/search/label/EN
    Can I do something similar with wordpress.com?
    I have to say, I was somewhat disappointed with the limitations of wordpress.com for multilingual sites, and I think something could be done…

    The blog I need help with is woman2womenblog.com
    Thanks a lot in advance

    Hi there,

    The theme which you’ve chosen only has one menu bar which you can customize, however several themes allow you to create several menus. You may want to explore the various themes available to see if there is one with a layout which fits your needs better.

    Thank you very much for tour answer. Would it be possible to add a second nav bar to the Adelle theme using CSS?

    You may be able to relocate a sidebar menu to be under the other menu bar, however it could be quite difficult. You’ll want to check out our CSS Customization forum right here:

    To see if that’s something which could be managed.
