Hi, I am trying to create a simple version of my page “simple speech” for people who have trouble understanding difficult context. I think a good (best?) way to do this is using the multilingual feature. - Has anyone experience doing such thing? How did you do it? - Can I setup my own “flag” symbol? Where? Is there anything I should be concerned with? Thanks Olaf ---

I think we can’t do this now, but I’m curious about how to create a custom language. I’m Japanese, and sometimes I have to add “Simplified Japanese” as another language to the website because Japanese is too hard to learn from foreigners who live in Japan. ---

Hi, I have not tried yet, but I suppose you simply take (download) a language file and translate the strings. Then, create a new directory in the “languages” (wherever that might be) and I expect the “new” language to be available
