Multilingual: A Handy Plugin

Shadowdare

This is a handy plugin for many uses. It proved useful when I was helping out with a client's website where the Vanilla locale isn't set to English and I needed to know what some text meant.

Thanks, @Linc!

Great plugin! But, how can I move the links or make a dropdown menu with flags in the top of the website? Didn't found the file.

Many Thanks

the way you change things, is to gain an understanding how things work by reading the documentation, learning a bit about vanilla plugins, and php.

you can see from this line

https://github.com/vanilla/addons/blob/master/plugins/Multilingual/class.multilingual.plugin.php#L86

that it is adding the links to the footer asset.

you can change the asset to what you want on line 86.

e.g. Head or Panel.

you can change the css style via custom.css or via

https://github.com/vanilla/addons/blob/master/plugins/Multilingual/class.multilingual.plugin.php#L89

read about assets and css on the forum, in the documentation and the wiki, and it should all be quite simple to do, with a bit of studying. logic, deduction and experimentation.
