posting news in different languages

[uyilmaz]

is there a way to post news in different languages and show only the ones in user's lang on the page?

i18n plugin uses suffixes to differentiate pages such as index_en, index_es
but news manager plugin has only 1 setting for "page to show news", for example selecting index_es there would cause all news to be displayed on spanish index page regardless of news' language

Sorry, multilanguage is not currently supported.

I'm not familiar with the code but I imagine it should be easy to add support?

• add a $lang parameter to the function that pulls posts
• be able to select multiple pages as "page to show news"

maybe I fork and work the above?

You're free to fork it of course.

Some notes:
This is something I was leaving for later, as there are some features (custom post rendering, multiblog, categories...) that I intended to implement before that.

Also, multilanguage is something I want to think about carefully, as I think there may be several approaches. Language suffixes in post slugs like mvleck's I18N plugins? Or perhaps a dropdown for the post language, different slugs depending on language? Multi-column post overview in backend like I18N, or something different? etc.
