What is the best way of creating a multilingual/multi-language website by Epi? Thanks!

I took a copy of the whole site and pages on the Editor, and created the site on 2 languages. Is this the only way to handle a multilingual page, or any new idea?

We will be adding true multilanguage support in EPiServer 4.30 (due mars/april). Then you will have the possibility to set that some properties on a page should be available in multiple languages. One tab for every language will appear in edit mode instead of a single "Edit" tab. All properties that are the same for all languages will appear under a tab similar to "Edit" next to the other language tabs.

I tested on creating one different start page for each language on the same episerver site. Each start page has its own easy web link, i.e. www.domainname.xxx/language. In IIS, you create a site for each language, and then set host header names on the sites, and set default redirect on each site to the main site and the easy web link. A lot of pages to edit, but you should have an editor for each language, though.

Now that you have released the 4.30 version, how do you set up a page type to use the new language tabs?

I found it myself. A simple edit of the web.config file enabled the flags functionality in the tab bar.

Hi Patrik! Could you please explain me what kind of changes you did on the web.config for getting this work? BR., Alireza

I found instructions in http://www.episerver.com/downloads/Documents/TechNotes/EPiServer%204.41/Introduction%20to%20the%20Multi-Language%20Runtime.pdf and had I read the entire document, I might have saved myself some time searching for reasons the PageName property acted strangely after activating the MultiLanguage module... :-)
