Multilanguage website under cmsms

[alex7575]

Hello everyone,

I'm currently making a french website with cmsms which will be translated in english, italian and german.
I would like to know which way is the best and the easiest one to make this website?
Do i have to make one cmsms website per language or can i have only 1 website under cmsms and manage all languages?

Thank you for your help

Alex

There is a multilingual fork (which will be merged with the current tree someday

http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 616.0.html

or you can create your page structure like

-en
--frontpage
--content
---and so on
-de
--translated
--content
---and so on
-it
--translated
--content
---and so on

and start your menus from level two with rewriteurls url will look fine too somesite.com/en/frontpage for example

here's a example

Your example works fine
Is this structure means ONE page in admin pages?

-en
--frontpage
--content
---and so on
-de
--translated
--content
---and so on
-it
--translated
--content
---and so on

If so, i have to change the template?

Is this structure means ONE page in admin pages?

-firstlevel
--secondlevel (so its a child of firstelevel)

How can i let the menu start at the second level

menumanager options can be seen at extensions -> modules -> menumanager help

"start_level="2" - This option will have the menu only display items starting a the given level."
