Flexicontent 2.0 and multilanguage

Hi,

I've had the chance to attend joomla day in bangkok during which Peter Martin gave a informative presentation on how to make a multi languages website without 3rd party components. You can see his presentation here: akarawuth.com/jday/JD2012-Peter- ... age_v7.pdf

I was wondering if FC 2.0 will accomodate the same functionality? That would avoid using joomfish which is a great extension but i prefer to avoid using many extension to manage a website. (which is why i love FC cause you can build anything within the same component).

thanks

ps: it was also nice to check emmanuel's presentation although he preached a preacher for me!

For next version we plan full item translation (all fields) with marking of untranslated fields (aka the value from the master translation will be used, this will be useful for galleries)

This will include
-- changing item language on the fly via a system plugin, aka associations of item translations
-- Task for creating translation
a. import translation from joomfish (J1.5 and J2.5?),
b. automatic copy and translate via google
-- Backend management support for showing and listing / managing the translation group of each item

This is partly implemented already for the J1.5 version (future v1.5.7)

Thanks ggpdk,

that sounds great actually.
I'm just not clear about which version this should be in.
"1.5.7", do you mean that it will also be in version "2" for j2.5?

Yes, actually the implementation for J1.5 should not be difficult to transfer to J2.5 version too

Hello, any news on the matter? Is there a rough estimation when multilanuage will be available?

cheers
