Dual / multi language forum.

[Urbanite]

Is there anything I have to do to have dual / multi language support on the forum? It is proposed that it will be a single forum with just English and Spanish language boards within it, but obviously the menus etc would need to be in the users own language in that they can navigate, make posts and access the help in their own language. Is this user configurable with the default installation or do I have to install additional files?

OK I couldn't delete this so I'll put up the answer instead.

HI there ,
I have the same problem, but with German...


I DO NOT want the whole website to have a German Interface, but only a few Boards...

Do you have any idea how to do this?
I've tried to make these boards into a different Theme then the rest, and tried to make this theme (only ) display German...
I don't know how to do this. - do you ?

What the language packs do is make the menu buttons etc in the alternative language, so at least the users can find their way around, instruction is given here http://www.simplemachines.org/download/?languages

Then install this http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=598 and the users can choose out of what you have installed. As for the boards not so sure that can be done, I have installed two other languages with the drop bar but its all or nothing.
