Hi all,

I would like to add some flag icons for different countries to the top right of my website in the header. I would also like to link these icons to the other versions of my website for different countries.

Could anyone tell me a plugin that would allow me to do this or even how I would add it myself without a plugin?

thanks

    It would be helpful to know is what software you are using for your website, WordPress, Joomla! etc. There are loads of people making both free and commercially available plug-ins that you can add to websites.

    Take a look at the WordPress › Global Translator « WordPress Plugins. I used it, works well, and there's a php call which you place within theme file (header.php, or where you want it), and flags will appear - if that's what you're looking for.

    This way, your site will be translated to other languages with google translate.

    If you already have multi-language website, and you just need links to those versions, you'll need to place some html code, and style it with css.

    For example:

    HTML Code:
    <ul>
<li><a href="#country-1"><img src="#image-link-to-country-1" /></a></li>
<li><a href="#country-2"><img src="#image-link-to-country-2" /></a></li>
<li><a href="#country-3"><img src="#image-link-to-country-3" /></a></li>
</ul>

    If you`re using wordpress, there are loads of plugins that do that automatically for you, as https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-language/ or https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-language-switch/ . Also there are those that change elements of your site according to visitor's ip. So no need to manually do it.
