Hi,

Is it possible to transform the "language chooser bar" into flags icons?
I would liek that instead of havving a standard menu selection, i have choice between flags associated to the language.
+ to move this pat on top of a custom header on the right

thanks

What happens when you choose another language? Do you get redirected to the same page but with "langid=X" in the URL address? (I don't use any non-English vBulletin boards so I haven't done this before).

If it does do this then you could just set up HTML in the navbar/header template, like <a href="?langid=X">FLAG IMAGE HERE</a>. Haven't come across a modification like this before but that may be an idea you could probably research & follow up.

Its a great idea and adittion into the vB, and if i were you i would risk to ask the developers to add it into future versions.

He's using the google translating system and not vB's language Manager.
You may want to create dinamic content for each text with Template modules or Template pages.

For that, use xhtml codes inside the phrase manager then call your text with $vbphrase[variable] when you want then to translate something outsite the vB's system.
