Скачать или смотреть Beyond Translation: Effective Multilingual LocalGov Drupal in Practice

When Annertech brought LocalGov Drupal to Ireland, Irish language support wasn't optional – it is a legal requirement for public sector websites in Ireland. Whilst councils can save up to 80% on website costs through shared code and community with LocalGov Drupal, multilingual capabilities can still represent significant investment, and true internationalisation extends far beyond translating strings.

Building on their work with the LocalGov Multilingual module, Tony Barker demonstrates how multilingual works in LocalGov Drupal for both council teams and citizens, showcases Drupal's strengths for internationalisation, and shows how third-party services can assist where certified human translation is not an option.

As LocalGov Drupal now attracts global attention beyond the UK and Ireland, considerations for the project expand: varying legal requirements across jurisdictions; services consuming localised data sources; differing cultural expectations for content structure; and regions where standardised approaches may differ.

In this video, you will learn practical approaches for planning multilingual implementations, drawing on our extensive experience of multilingual and internationalisation in Drupal.
