Proper way of doing multilingual website using Umbraco 7
Hello All,
i'm just starting with Umbraco. My goal is implement static website. i need to support multiple languages for it, based on a language content may be different and even structure.
I want final url schema to be friendly to search engines, each language should have distinctive prefix like
www.mysite.com/en/...
www.mysite.com/fr/...
There should be a language switch (drop down or alike) and it should be able to direct user to a same page (if possible, probably based on page name) in a different language.
Can someone please point me to a right guide or documentation I can use to implement this in Umbraco 7?
i have found some howtos and forum post from 2011 but not sure it applies to latest version of CMS.
While there's no clear-cut recipe for this (it's so hard as the requirements always differ) you can get some inspiration from posts like this one:
