    you could add a small script from google translate and then you can switch the current live site to any language, as long as the google translate is sufficient?

    Hi Anton! For my specific purpose Google Translate is not a choice.

    in that case, I would create several folders on your server, one for each language

    then in Nof, when English version is done, save the site as new name such as yoursite-german and then replace the text and upload to the German folder

    then on the main site, add a language selection menu and link each to the correct url

    What Anton said. Then, depending on how good your coding ability is, set a persistent cookie storing their language preference would be the way to go. That way they would only have to make the choice once and after that would be served the appropriate language page.

    Another alternative which is prevalent today is to read the originating IP address from the http request header and then lookup the geographic area of that IP address.

    Neither of these, of course, are within NoF. But any good web programmer should be able to write the code for you at a small expense.

    Thanks to all for the information. All these are good approaches, as long as no changes are applied to the original language site. Which then can become a nightmare...

    My recommendation to use this FM WhatsApp to make your original WhatsApp more colorful.
