The most efficient way to translate website in custom HTML?

Post by penetrator69 » Mon Oct 22, 2012 10:08 pm

Hello,

I have multilingual Joomla 1.5 website, got there content in 5 different languages.

I have completely changed template of old site [redesigned from clear Joomla 2.5] and now it's on Joomla 2.5

Got it in English, I'm using FaLang, now I'm translating it to other languages, and have copy-paste content for over 5 different languages... Content is in Custom HTML.

Is there any fastest way to translate this site? I mean copy-paste? Copying-pasting content from old site to one language takes me 5-7 hours.

Cheers, and thank you forward for your help!

It is not clear as to whether you want help in translation or copying the contents/modules from a base set of contents/modules.

If it is former then there is no tool for that. Even the Google translation would not be sufficient.

If it is latter then you could try the Batch Process that is in the bottom part of the Article Manager and Module Manager.

I guess the original poster was using Joomfish and switches to Falang for 2.5.

I suggest to contact the Falang developer.
