  How can I offer a translation option to blog readers – for a second or multiple languages?

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

  We can set a single language for our blogs here > Settings > General. We cannot use Google Translate widgets or any JavaScript widgets on WordPress.com blogs but there is a workaround for creating a translation page. I have a translation page and a translation widget.

  Some bloggers like to create more than one blog ie. one for each langauage. Then they create and use custom menus with custom links to link the blogs to each other.

  This is the result of clicking your username:

  dzhulunitsabg.wordpress.com is no longer available. The authors have deleted this blog.

  Please link your primary WordPress.com blog to your WordPress.com username. Dashboard -> Users -> Personal Settings -> then scroll down to Account Details. Then scroll down to where it says ‘Website‘ select the URL for your primary wordpress.com blog and then save changes.

  Then every time you sign into the forum we can all click on your username and your blog will be linked to it. And every time you leave a comment on a blog your username can be likewise clicked and your blog can be instantly located.

  Thanks, I made the change.
  The blog is mostly in draft mode right now, but I want to work on it over the weekend to get it up.

  What font has “straight” quotation marks?
  Bummer…..that translation site doesn’t have Bulgarian!
