Is it possible to run a multilingual website on WordPress.com?
-
Is it possible to run a multilingual website on WordPress.com? I use a language plugin on my WordPress.org website, but I am constantly running into issues with translations disapearing and what-not. Thus, I am considering simply moving to WordPress.com for more reliability.
However, I need to be able to make my website bilingual. Is it even possible?
Thank you!

There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and we cannot install individual plugins into them for security reasons. Those found on the internet are for WordPress.ORG installs which run on different software.

WordPress.com vs WordPress.org: The Differences http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/There is no upgrade you can purchase from WordPress.com to provide FTP access and the ability to upload any plugins .

We do not have bilingual or multilingual themes at WordPress.com. We can set only one interface language for our WordPress.com blogs here > Settings > General
You can have 2 blogs in 2 different languages, of course, but we have don’t support automatic translations between them.You’d need to write a blog post in the two languages and then post to each blog (or post the two versions of the entry on the same blog, make each language category, create a custom menu and add the categories pages to it).
