I have to create a new webpage for a company and the page has to be in two languages.
Spip allows me to associate corresponding articles, and on the public page, a link to the other language appears.
My questions are the following ones:
-> Can I do the same for rubriques (saying that this is translation of that rubrique). As for now, I just have one rubrique/section that is in one language, and the otherone that is in the other language.
- Is there a way to make the sommaire take over the language of the browser?
- The company logo is different depending on the language. Anyone knows if there is a way to make this depending on the language one and for all for the whole site (sommaire, rubrique AND article).
There is different ways to make multilangage website. I would say here
to make one langage rubrique with one logo, and another with another. than
the articles are linked together with their translations. You can make a loop
that can retrieve one article and use it to say that the rubriques are
translations of the others.... For the logo, another loop can retrieve
the langage than show the proper rubrique logo... For the browser
langage, i'm not so sure it's a good idea as i might like to browse a
site in english even if i am french speaking. So maybe a langage menu
sounds better...

That’s not so false. But if ever you really wish to do this, you can install plugin « Swiss Knife » which has an option to force the language according to the browser (and many very useful others )

Not really. I think you have to recreate the Rubriques yourself, referring to Peggy’s method

I don’t really know. Maybe you can work on the LOGO_SITE_SPIP, looping it with a {lang} criterion somewhere. I didn’t really tried but maybe there’s something to do with this.
Now new question: Actually, the company's logo shows only on the head. The language of the rest of the page adapts automatically to the language of the article or rubrique. So I guess the easiest way would be to create a different inc_head.html depending on the language. Anyone has tried that out?

Now new question: Actually, the company’s logo shows only on the head. The language of the rest of the page adapts automatically to the language of the article or rubrique. So I guess the easiest way would be to create a different inc_head.html depending on the language. Anyone has tried that out?

This might work for the rubriques/articles/ … but for the Sommaire i’m not sure.
Is there a way to make the sommaire take over the language of

If you want a logo for each language, what about using :
(you don’t use #LOGO_SITE_SPIP)
you can also use a translation string :
<:logo_of_my_site:>
with squelettes/lang/local_en.php :

I use a different logo for the site according to the language (actually a logo for the Latin languages and another one for the Arabic language). I uploaded the Latin logo as the normal Site's logo and the Arabic logo as the hovering logo and in inc-entete I put a condition:
