Hi all,
Running into something that is going to cause a pain so looking for alternate solutions.
Ok so we have a main US site with 8 different languages.
The solution I have been given to display the translated languages for those menus is to create a new template for each language. So if i have just 5 different templates i need to duplicate those x8 just for the language. Seems like a huge pain in the ace!
So what i was thinking is why can’t i pivot off the language of the page in the header.php where the menu is being built and just display the menu i want.
Now you will have to forgive me as i am somewhat new to Joomla and been diving into the code so not exactly sure what is possible at what point and what the syntax would be.
But the way i would like the header.php (menu portion) to work is something like below (no clue on syntax just using plain english)
if lang = ‘fr’
display -> FrenchMenu;
else if lang = ‘de’
display -> GermanMenu;
else
display -> EnglishMenu;
I would work this into a switch but i think you get the point. Is something like this possible at this point?
Steve
