Multi-lingual approach to quickly implement Magento and product data in multiple languages

Magento supports multiple language stores by default, but you need to make some settings to use multi-lingual features.

One, background multi-language support (Chinese culture)

Magento Login Backstage when the default is to display the English interface, in the lower left corner of the page to select the language is Chinese will jump to the Chinese interface, if it is still displayed in English, it is because the Chinese language pack is not downloaded the reason, follow these steps:

1. Download the Chinese Language pack

2. Upload to the specified directory

3. Switch the language to Simplified Chinese and empty the cache

Second, multi-language support of the front desk (various programs)

1. Download the specified language pack
2. Upload to the specified directory (app/local)
3. Login to the admin background and create a new store view on the Manage Stores page, specifying a name such as "Chinese"
4. To admin panel System > Configuration > General

Then choose the store View "Chinese" locale options > Locale > Chinese
Select Store View "中文版" locale options > Locales > 中文版

Save the settings. This way you have a 2-language interface. It's actually a 2 store view.
Finally refresh the cache at System->cache Management

The above scenario is a single shop for multiple languages, if you want to implement different domain names or sub-directories corresponding to different languages, you can add more than one store, and specify the corresponding language.

Three, the product data, the article page's Multi-language realization

After the above steps have been installed, only the frames page and the navigation structure have been implemented with multi-lingual support. If you add a product category, product title and content, the article CMS page, etc. to display the corresponding language content, also need to add different languages/stores language content, if not added, will show the default language added content.

If your site product content is more, to add multilingual content work will be more cumbersome, you need to translate a product title or content from the original language into the target language, and then add to the specified language product database.
