The simplest way to make and manage bigger multi-language sites.

Contao uses one page-tree per language to manage multi-language sites. When you have a larger site (50-100 pages per language) with many languages (5-6) in the same domain it becomes harder and harder to manage all this, especially when you use many modules. Also you end with too many duplicated layouts etc.

This extension makes you work less.

Note! This extension assumes the following :

• You have only one root page (one page-tree/domain).
• Your default language is defined in the root page.
• You will have corresponding translations of pages in possibly (but not mandatory) each of the other languages.
• You can not have a page-translation in one of the available languages and missing fallback page in the default language.
• In case you will have pages in some of the avaliable languages, but not in the default language better make a separate page-tree per language and do not use this extension.
• Setting "Front end configuration"/ "Disable page alias usage" is unchecked.
• Setting "Front end configuration"/"Add the language to the URL" is unchecked.

Features:

• Multilanguage site in only one page-tree;
• Unique urls per language (i.e. home.en.html,home.de.html or /en/home.html,/de/home.html etc.);
• Automatic localization on page creation in all available languages;
• Localizations for all pages in the default language to all site languages with one click;
• Page languages does not depend on installed backend language or admin-user language;
• Pages under the same root can have title, pageTitle and description in many languages;
• You can have content elements in different languages in the same article or shown in any language;
• Frontend module for switching between page and content languages(Languages menu);
• Switching language is possible for logged in users with language property already set;
• Main navigation and breadcrumb navigation automaticaly show translated page's titles;
• Works with Isotope eCommerce (See the manual);
• Multilanguage News (See the manual).
