Translation with a personal program

Hello,

Is there anyway to translate a website in one or 2 other languages even if it's a personal program? I don't want to use the extension.

Thank you! 🙂

Are you referring to being on the "personal" subscription plan rather than the business plan?

If you don't want to use the weglot extension, then there are other code options, some more sophisticated than others, but if you want to keep it very simple, then you may just want to have folders in the navigation for the languages that you want, and duplicate and translate each page and put them in the correct language folder. This isn't the most slick approach, but it will work.

Thank you @Ziggy for your quick reply. Yes, I have a personal subscription but I want that the result be clean and pro. Any tips? Merci beaucoup

There are a few options out there, see if one of these works for you:

This should work on personal plan:

I've used this method before successfully, but requires a business plan:

Thank you @Ziggy I'm looking at it 🙂

Unfortunately, seems I need to switch to a premium subscription for the 1st option, I can't add the codes on my pages.. 😞

It suggests that you can do this on a personal plan, and in looking through the instructions myself I can't see that it suggests using code injection anywhere.

Well, I'm definitly not a pro on this :s merci

Can you send me a screen where I'm supposed to inject the codes please bc I'm blocked from the first steps 😞

The first step is to create the pages.

The second step is to add code to a code block on each page, different for each language.
Although it would be possible to add this code to the header code injection, this is not required and you are being directed to add a code block onto the page and add the code to that.

Indeed, I did it right but suggest me to switch to a premium account because I don't have the possibility to copy/past the code on the pages I have created.

I have the message I sent you previously. So strange!

Ohhh ok, I get it, thank you so much! let's try again 🙂

Hello 🙂

I didn't had time yesterday to try again, I'm going to folllow the tuto, but just one question, how can I create the language switch button? @Ziggy do you know how I can do that please?

Thank you for your help

You just have to add two links to the website main navigation, one for each languages and linking to the homepages for each language.
