How to support multi-language forum pls ?

[ningji]

So if ppl write posts using different languages, what's the best way to make the forum clear in NodeBB ?

1. Create separate catalogs for different languages ?
2. Use tag ?
3. anything else ... ?

@ningji out recommendation has always been to use separate categories for different languages

It is possible to limit viewership of categories to specific user groups, which may allow you to support multiple disparate languages on one forum.

@julian tried, works, loving this feature

Don't listen to anyone. Nodebb can translate category names and descriptions by default, and you can use tags to navigate through as many languages as you need. You need to create an empty plugin with all the languages that you need. It works fine for me

@volanar Yes! I like to think that for any particular problem, there are multiple viable solutions. Yours would definitely work as well
