    Hi,
    I make my first registration in Word press in English. I still improve my writing skills and wish could start first posting my native language – Bulgarian.
    What is your advice?
    Shall I open a new post? or I can use this to write in Bulgarian.
    My plan is my further posts to be read in both languages at least.

    Thanks
    Vanya

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

    Hi Vanya. Creating a second blog would be a good idea indeed. The interface for your visitors would be in Bulgarian and your posts would appear on the Bulgarian WordPress.com page at http://bg.wordpress.com/

    Thank you for your quick reply! However I have a concern about the second blog! I wanna keep the exact theme and adress of course! Will I be able to have the same adress?

    @kalomba: If you have two blogs, they will each have a different address. Of course you can create similar addresses, for example myblogen.wordpress.com and myblogfr.wordpress.com

    If you insist on having the same address, create separate categories for each language.

    I would like to see the same possibility, but for the user to decide in which language he wants to read the blog and even load it according to his local language.

    Let’s say if the user has a German IP, the site laods in German, for all other IPs in English (because I am not gonna write each post in hundreds of languages), but there should still be a button where the user can switch manually, because a German is on vacation in England e.g.

    @merikilpikonna: To the best of my knowledge, that’s not an option in WordPress.com.
