  Hi,

  I wonder if it is possible to have a multi language post in the blog I am starting.

  I have 2 groups of people that might read my posts, one in Portuguese and the other one in English. I wish I could create one post using both languages, having a kind of language tag as for example:

  <div lang="en" xml:lang="en">
  English post here!
  </div>
  <div lang="pt_BR" xml:lang="pt_BR">
  "Post" em português aqui!
  </div>

  So, if the blog has an English audience, the English post is shown.
  If it is an Portuguese audience, the Portuguese post is shown.
  For any other language speaking audiences, English should be default…

  Is it somehow possible?

  Thanks a lot!

  I used the search utility and found a work around for the Google translation widget that you may be interested in https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/translation-widget?replies=20#post-304621

  I heard there is a way to filter by IP address… does anyone know how to do that?

  If user is from US, show it in english. If it is from Italy, show it in italian.

  Thanks
