  Hello everybody!

  I have a blog where I publish both in Spanish and English. I have a problem with tags. When I publish a post in English, the tags are also in English, obviously, but the links attached to them appear in the Spanish wordpress (for example, the tag “society” have the following link: http://es.wordpress.com/tag/society). I want them to appear in the English wordpress (http://en.wordpress.com/tag/society), so they can be found for real. What must I do? Please help me.

  Thank you in advance.

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

  You must set the language of the blog to English. The reason they’re appearing this way is, the blog’s language is set to Spanish. You can change that under Settings->General.

  Thank you raincoaster, but the problem is that if I change the settings to English, then my Spanish tags would go to the English wordpress, so I would still have the same problem (but reverse).

  That is correct.

  I’m wondering if you could set up two almost indentical blogs, one for each language. Set up a static front page on each that would link to the category archives of “English” and “Spanish” from both blogs. Then each could have a set of tags in the desired language. ??

  I don’t know. It looks very complicated for a change that should be simple. Thanks anyway!
