WordPress plugin which redirects from the root site of a multisite project to a language specific network site.
Please Note: This plugin doesn’t allow content on the root site! Please read this description carefully to see if this works for you.
The decision which language should be used is based in the browser language of the user which is usually sent as ‘Accept-Language’ header (PHP: $_SERVER[‘HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE’]).
The plugin provides a configuration page where supported languages, redirect targets and the default language can be configured.
The plugin should be activated only on the root site. It shouldn’t be active on the language specific network site.
The plugin is developed on <a href="https://github.com/bjoerne2/language-redirect" rel="nofollow ugc">Github</a>. Feel free to fork the project or create pull requests.
This plugin was originally developed for <a href="http://www.monkkee.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">monkkee</a> and is inspired by <a href="http://oncleben31.cc" rel="nofollow ugc">oncleben31.cc</a>

Language Redirect

Great extension to Multilingual Press...
Just make sure you read correctly. Don't network activate the plugin. Only activate it at the root blog.



Works fine!

Bogo is a straight-forward multilingual plugin for WordPress.
The core of WordPress itself has the built-in localization capability so you can use the dashboard and theme in one language other than English. Bogo expands this capability to let you easily build a multilingual blog on a single WordPress install.
Here are some technical details for those interested. Bogo plugin assigns <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/article/multilingual-wordpress/#different-types-of-multilingual-plugins" rel="ugc">one language per post</a>. It plays nice with WordPress – Bogo does not create any additional custom table on your database, unlike some other plugins in this category. This design makes Bogo a solid, reliable and conflict-free multilingual plugin.
<h4>Getting started with Bogo</h4>
<ol>
<li>
Install language packs
First, install language packs for languages you use on the site. You can view and install language packs in the Language Packs screen (Languages > Language Packs).
</li>
<li>
Select your language for admin screen
Bogo lets each logged-in user select a language for their admin screen UI. Select a language from the menu on the <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/article/administration-screens/#toolbar-keeping-it-all-together" rel="ugc">Toolbar</a>, or from the menu in the Profile screen (Users > Your Profile) if the Toolbar is invisible.
</li>
<li>
Translate your posts and pages
To create a translation post, go to the editor screen for the original post and find the Language box. Bogo does only make a copy of the post; translating the copied post is your task.
</li>
<li>
Add language switcher widgets
It would be useful for site visitors if you have a language switcher on your site. Bogo provides the Language Switcher widget in the Widgets screen (Appearance > Widgets).
You can also use the <code>[bogo]</code> shortcode to put a language switcher inside a post content. If you want to use this shortcode in your theme’s template files, embed the following code into the template:
<pre><code><?php echo do_shortcode( '[bogo]' ); ?>
</code></pre>
</li>
</ol>
<h4>Privacy notices</h4>
With the default configuration, this plugin, in itself, does not:
<ul>
<li>track users by stealth;</li>
<li>write any user personal data to the database;</li>
<li>send any data to external servers;</li>
<li>use cookies.</li>
</ul>

Bogo


There are some functionalities needed that should be in the core like change the post language, or linking to another post.
