    Multilingual site

    Hello,

    My company would like to launch a job board but we are located in Quebec, Canada so the site MUST be multilingual. By law, users have to be able to choose the language they want (English or French). Is it possible, perhaps using a translation plugin like WPML or language switching widget, to have the Job Board theme be a multilingual site? To be perfectly clear - the jobs that employers list or the resumes they candidates enter do not have to be translated but all the forms, pages, etc. that employers or candidates would use to input their information would have to be available in English and French. Is this possible?

    Thank you for your assistance,
    Nicky Fambios

    This is not a default feature of the theme to be able to switch languages and whilst there are plugins such as WPML, it is not 100% compatible with all of our themes at this time (you can read more about it here). Either using the plugin or setting up your installation to include both language options would require customization of the default theme on your part. Thanks.

    Thank you for your response. I see by the link you provided that the WPML bridge for Jobroller is indicated as "coming soon"... do you have an estimate for that?

    Unfortunately not at this time, this has been put on hold for the moment as other projects have taken priority, so we really don't have an indication of when it will be available yet sorry. Thanks.

    Thanks for your feedback. To clarify to customers seeking this functionality though, we do not officially support third party plugins, so we cannot guarantee that plugins such as this will definitely be compatible with our themes out of the box.
