First approach: langck

langck is a plugin Joomla simple implementation that makes it possible to condition the display of sentences or groups of words to the current language.

Simply insert the necessary tags of the form:

{langck=fr-FR}french text to show{/langck}{langck=en-GB}english text to show{/langck}

Note that this plugin can also be used to point to one or other of the modules or plugins according to the current language. Ex:

{langck lang=en-FR}
{tab A propos}
{article id="346"}{/article}
{/tabs}
{/langck}
{langck lang=en-GB}
{tab About}
{article id="347"}{/article}
{/tabs}
{/langck}

In this example we will rename the About tab to About and use article 346 for French, article 347 for English

Second approach: Web-T

WEB-T for Joomla - European Commission is a component Joomla which allows you to translate articles one by one by creating the associated article of the desired language.
