Hello there,

I am new to the clubs -Joomla in general and Gavick- therefore I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on the following issue:

I need to set up a "bilingual" website (greek-english). How can I create a "biliningual" main menu? I guess Joomfish cannot be the solution since the Greek and the English versions cannot be "identical" (for example, the Greek one will have less items than the English)

Thanks in advance for any hints.

Hi

What do You mean by "has less items" ? I was helping with English - Greek sites and JomFish is just the right answer.

Hi,

What I mean is that the non-Greek sections of the site -I mean those addressed to non-Greek visitors ("sections" in this case is not the Joomla term)are more than the sections intended for Greek visitors. To give you the background, the web site will include info on an international conference. For the non-Greeks we need to give info on accommodation, tourist program, etc, i.e. the kind of info not required by Greeks. That is why the Greek menu is expected to have less items than the English version.

after some googling I realized that translating megamenu using Joomfish is not an easy task at all anyway; I think I am going to use some other menu system in two copies(probably aria)and use metamod to show the appropriate language version based on the language selection of each visitor.

I hope what I write is clear; my English is not something I am proud about :(

You can use template for Joomla 1.6 where standard language module works great with double language menu.
