Choosing the language on the blog with PluXml : done !
The last blog update happened in january (in french), but I keep improving this blog ! π
What's new :
- β’ displaying flags as languages helpers between the title and the important pages.
This way, it's easier too see that the blog is available in both French and English π, even if for now, there are more articles in French than in English (I will work on that π ).
Yeah, it's the french version
And of course on mobile :
Depending on your device resolution, the design of the navigation bar can be a little bit messy because the flags can go over the title π I will work on this important point and create real breakpoints for my media queries, but for now, a little fix I did was to place the flags over the title (with a higher z-index), so the flags can still be clicked on. Feel free to tell me how is the design on your device, or to send me a screenshot on the social media of your choice !
- β’ display of the dependencies for bilingual articles : when both french and english articles exist, it is visible immediately.
Here is the example of a french HotPanda. The english article is available, so a link with a flag and the title is notified on the beginning of the article π The english HotPanda is available here.
I used to link manually each article that has its equivalent in the other language, whereas the multilang plugin I use can do it by default ! π It's the plugin plxMyMultiLingue for PluXml.
That's it ! It has been a while since I wanted to allow an easy switch between French and English on the blog, and now it's done ! It will motivate me to translate more and more articles in English, I promise...
What do you think of this blog update ? π
