  I need help creating a bilingual site. I have looked at

  Set Up a Multilingual Site

  And saw the example website: http://arboretumpouyouleix.com/

  which is exactly what I need but can’t figure out how they did it.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can set only one interface languages at > Dashboard > Settings > General.

  We do not have FTP access and we bloggers cannot install any plugins, we cannot use Microsoft or Google translation widgets or any others, as they are JavaScript and it’s stripped out to preserve security on this multiuser blogging platform. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/

  However, I have translation on my WordPress.com blogs. There are two workarounds and you will find them here > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/02/14/translation-widget-for-wordpress-com-blogs/
  Note: You can copy and paste the code on my Translations page and then replace every occurrence of my blog’s URL in the code with your own blog’s URL.

  If you are bilingual or multilingual and want to publish your free hosted WordPress.com in two or more languages but do not want to rely on machine translation that can be done see here > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2013/02/25/wordpress-com-multilingual-blogs/ and here

  That blogger created duplicate pages in two different languages and added them into their custom menu.

  Thank you! I will look at these options.

  I really like how the example website has both languages as buttons and when you click on each one the menu changes.

  That’s what I am trying to figure out. Will continue experimenting.
