    Hi there,

    I am busy developing a site in 3 languages, the parent language is Dutch, and the other languages English and Arabic.

    I read a lot of forum posts about translating and using wpml plugin and have a few questions before i start translating:

    1. My wordpress dashboard does not need translation, just the frontend (menu’s buttons text) of the website. Do I need wpml for that or is copying an existing page template in Cornerstone and changing the language manually a solution too?

    2. Do I need WMPL at all?

    3. How do I set up a ‘choose language button’ in the top bar?

    3. Does wpml make everything RTL when translating it to Arabic, or do I need to setup something else in my childtheme if I am nog using wpml?

    4. If I do purchase WPML can I still use Cornerstone? I read some threads about it, and it is not clear to me what the solution is or if Cornerstone and wpml is a stable combination at the moment.

    A lot of questions, hope you can help me because I am confused in what to use for multiple languages on the website. Thanks a lot, kind regards Saskia

    Thanks for writing in! Kindly follow our Translation article and use the best option for you.

    If you want to use WPML then kindly follow their documentation – https://wpml.org/documentation/

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Rupok, thanks for the response
    I used poedit for some Dutch translations of the theme and works fine. I am just a bit worried about the rtl pages. I will start with wpml, and if I experience troubles I will check in again. have a nice day, kind regards Saskia
