I have a multi-langual site. I want to allow the user to read either in English or Russian.
Therefore, the best solutions that would work for me is:
1- to have completely two sets of templates that user can easily switch between by clicking on "ENGLISH" or "RUSSIAN" links at the top of all pages, so how do I specify that knowing that all pages need to be switched to the selected langauge??
2- set a flag in DB or somewhere when someone clicks on "ENGLISH" or "RUSSIAN" link and then I can use the same set of templates but with condition to display content:
if language_flag=1
show english content
else
show russian content
endif
and I will put this in every template where I need translation...
which solution is better, can you please advise and tell me how to set the flag or how to use different set of templates???
thank you in advance
