This is an old post, on that time, Drupal didn’t have native support. Now, version 6 is having all you need.
Even eLiberatica websites are outdated now, I plan to rebuild it with the new characteristics and with full internationalization in the next month or so.

To help you understand, I recommend to check this articles

- Tutorial – Building a multi-language site
- Setting up multilingual site with Drupal Internationalization (i18n)
- New features in Drupal 6 – i18n and l10n special show

Hope will help you, internationalization is not an easy thing with the websites, care should be taken. If you would need something professional, you should hire a specialist.

I barely know anything about computers, and or Drupal. So I'm stuck, I was put in charger of this project, and reading your comments has managed to help me have some what of an understanding. I just need to know step by step what I need to do in order to make some of my sites multi lingual. Thanks so much in advance, Hello,

I need help making one of the sites I work with Bilingual. I barely know anything about computers, and or Drupal. So I’m stuck, I was put in charger of this project, and reading your comments has managed to help me have some what of an understanding. I just need to know step by step what I need to do in order to make some of my sites multi lingual.

Thanks so much in advance,

We actually mentioned in our blogs and is not a secret we are using Drupal for eLiberatica. The considerate we didn't mention on the site is the fact we don't want to promote there a particular FLOSS solution (as far as eLiberatica is willing to promote FLOSS in general); on the other hand, we whished to present there information exclusively about the Conference. If somebody is interested, he/she can send to the webmaster a mail and ask :) as in your case. Related to the modules, I would suggest you to check with Roberto Gerola (http://www.speedtech.it/about), he is a real expert, he developed localizer. All my best, Lucian Hi Alex, thanks for the note.

I notice that the site doesn't mention that it is running Drupal. What is your take on that? Do you think it's useful for web developers to let their users know what software they're running. As a user-developer, I find that information useful. What other Drupal modules would you recommend?
