For a few days now I am bothered by the idea of modifying my blog as to be multi-language (having the same blog, but to allow me post in more languages and to display the posts according to the global language setting).
The first thought that crossed my mind was to install a new Wordpress for each language that I want to use, but when I thought of all those plugins, settings and all that crap that will bother me, I quit.
Unfortunately, there aren’t too many informations regarding the possibility of a Wordpress that supports more language at a given time. At a fairly deep search I found a single site that had some promises, so I kept it for when I would start testing.
Fortunately, there is also Smash in the world, who found me another two sites that seemed perfect.
I couldn’t wait anymore. I took xampp, installed it, I took Wordpress, installed it too, I took the database from the blog, imported it in my new localhost blog, adjusted the settings as to be as close to the original ones as possible and I went nuclear.
I started with qTranslate and I instantly dropped dead when, after I clicked on Activate Plugin, it displayed me a mile-long page cu errors. Good thing there was Google available.
The file “qtranslate_core.php” must be modified. More clearly, the next piece of code must be commented:
if(is_object($text)||get_class($text) == '__PHP_Incomplete_Class') {
foreach(get_object_vars($text) as $key => $t) {
$text->$key = qtrans_use($lang,$text->$key,$show_available);
}
return $text;
}
After modifying this file, the installation, activation and setting up the plugin are just a breeze.
All I still need to do is to modify the rest of the blog’s posts. I’m so screwed 
Good luck with improving Wordpress !

Foarte buna ideea ta, de a avea blogul si in engleza…desi o sa iti ia ceva timp pana traduci toate posturile. Spor la treaba si mult timp liber.

Sa inteleg ca la tine nu ar trebui sa apelez dupa ajutor in problema asta ?
Merci

Ca sa nu plangi ca esti oropsit de soarta si ca nu te ajuta nimeni, ma ofer eu sa te ajut la tradus.

Daca as avea timp te-as ajuta sincer, dar se pare ca decizia ta mi-a dat si mie avant
and once again schimb layout-ul, back-end’ul, functionalitati and so on…
Asta e, pe masura ce invat mai mult urasc mai tare ce am facut cand nu stiam
I guess it’s universal…

Si apropo… ai observat cum e scrisa data la commenturi?
E ceva intentionat?
October 8th, 2009 at 9:00 AM
De acord cu tine
Da, am observat. E un bug legat de pluginul pentru multi-language. Inca nu am avut timp sa incerc sa il repar, iar pe Google nu am gasit rezolvarea, so … va mai merge asa un timp
Thanks for pointing it out, though.
Bafta

Awesome blog!
I thought about starting my own blog too but I’m just too lazy so, I guess I‘ll just have to keep checking yours out.
LOL,
