It’s been a while since I made real update with ZdMultilang Wordpress plugin.
One of the most problematic part of the plugin was to define languages as language codes where not known of the users. So, in order to help you define your languages, next release of zdmultilang will include a language selector which has been made using the list of languages included in Wordpress.
The language selector will look like this. Clicking on a link will fill correct values, allowing you to modify them before to save.
Language Selector
Feature list / Bugs I’ll be working on
Just to let you know, there is no specific order on tasks.
Features :
- Rename all falgs
- Give a list of available languages and option to create a new language
- Don’t show the flag on untranslated posts.
- Enhance zd_multilang_menu(); and create a doc on how to implement it in themes
- Search in translated texts as well as original posts
- Don’t show flag for current language in posts/pages
- Translate more : Blog title, blog slogan, post excerpts, link and cats descriptions, …
- Translate slugs - feasible ?
- Translate metatags - feasible ?
- In translate post/page, add a button to import google translation
- Allow translations using ThickBox
- Add Draft status so that you can publish a translation later.
Bugs :
- Fix the “show language name in language selector”
- When homepage of the blog is a static page, translations and permalink are not working.
- Repair Links to prev/next translation
- Check for different permalinks structures (in ?lang=… & /index.php/%postname%)
- Check compatibility with wordpress MU
Feedback ?
Of course, ZdMultilang is not only a plugin made for me, but also for YOU, so for any feature request, bugs, do not hesitate to leave a comment here, or use the bug tracker here on Launchpad.

bonjour,
j’aime beaucoup ton plug que je trouve simple et vraiment efficace… mais :
je voudrais une implémentation assez discrete des drapeaux, juste deux flags cote a cote dans ma sidebar.
dans les posts je peux le faire avec la css (.lang_switch display:inline)
mais dans la sidebar j’ai pas trouvé.. soit j’affiche le widget, soit je l’affiche pas et si je l’affiche c’est en colonne avec un titre au dessus…
un petit indice serait le bienvenue !
merci,
Fab
fab, tu peux toujours utiliser la fonction <?php echo zd_multilang_menu(); ?> qui t’affichera juste les elements en <li></li>
Hi Anthony,
Any idea on when the next release of the Plug-in will be ready. I’d be happy to help you test it as I’ve got a bit of understanding of your code.
So far your plugin has been running great on my site. Haven’t noticed any problems …
Cheers, Markus
Markus, I don’t have a real planning on when next version will be released. I can’t make a planning simply because I have too many things to do at the moment (immigration at the end of the year and very busy at work)
I’ll send you beta version if you wish ;)
Your plugin is great, I have one suggestion to work with TinyMCE Advanced editor, because TinyMCE is annoying with problems.
Can’t wait new version :)
Hi, Anthony, and sorry for my english :-)
i have a simple way to decision of problem “When homepage of the blog is a static page, translations and permalink are not working.”
its very easy:
1) In WP options (settings - reading), choose static page for index
2) plase plugin with this text in plugins directory:
3) activate plugin
this is a only for two languages - Russian & Ukrainian, but its simply to customize :-)
thanx for this really cool plugin :-)
