Maybe Robert’s article can help? Multi-lingual articles in Textpattern: A poor man’s solution
it does … thanks
Am i assuming correctly that the text has to be entered in a form? it cannot therefore be done by editors at the new article phase? I don’;t want to give editors access to the forms or pages sections.

Re: Academic bilingual site
Well, if you’re only using two languages, I guess you could use the body and excerpt field for the article body, and maybe custom fields for the titles and do something like this:
<txp:output_form form="accept-language" />
<txp:if_variable name="accept-language" value="de">
<h3><txp:custom_field name="german_title" /></h3>
<txp:body />
<txp:else />
<h3><txp:custom_field name="english_title" /></h3>
<txp:excerpt />
</txp:if_variable>BTW here is the wiki article. It’s a bit outdated, the described workarounds are no longer necessary since we can use tags as attributes.
