Title: Switch logo depending on language
Post by: LadyHLG on January 15, 2008, 19:14:10

The site I am currently working on will only have two languages, I am wondering how difficult it would be to switch a logo image depending on which language is chosen. Is this info stored in a session variable?

Thanks

The logo image or anything visible is controlled by your template and the template's CSS. You can create 2 diferrent logo's and afterwards add in your template something like this:

Code: (php) [Select]

<?php 
global $lang;
if ($lang == &#39;english&#39;) {
    $logo = &#39;images/english-logo.png&#39;;
} else {
    $logo = &#39;images/greek-logo.png&#39;;
}

echo &#39;<img src="&#39;.$logo.&#39;" border="0" alt="logo" />&#39;;
?>

Another solution would be to create template position (eg. user9) inside your template, and then create module with your logo and publish it for specific language at that position (user9).
