  Hello again, thank you. That was a useful link on multilingual blog setup. I will not use Google Translate, however, because I do my own translations to ensure correctness, and sometimes, I don’t write exactly the same thing in each language (such as when a reference will be meaningless to speakers of the other languages, or such as when a portion of the topic needs to be different for the other languages due to relevancy to their culture).

  @ladipaolo, I’m checking to see if any of our staff have experience with the Polylang plugin. Hopefully I can get back to you shortly on this.

  @ladipaolo, it has been used on WordPress.com Business sites and seems to work without issues, but that is no guarantee it will work flawlessly on all themes. It is well documented, but the developer only support paid Pro users.

  I’d suggest testing it and see how things go.
