Extension:LanguageTag

The LanguageTag extension allows to use XML-style language tags to markup different languages, and display them according the markup, and the user language setting.
This extension may and should be used together with the UniversalLanguageSelector extension, to give the user the ability to choose his locale.

It can be used on a per-page basis. Installed and activated it will parse XML language tags, like <en>text</en> and display it only if the user language is english.

Example

<en>'''This''' is some text in English. It will only be visible for users in English locale.</en>
<de>Dies ist ein deutschsprachiger Text.</de>
<hu>Ez a mediawiki magyar hangja. Írásban.</hu>

If the user Language does not match, the extension will include the text in the html page, as a comment.

• Download and move the extracted LanguageTag folder to your extensions/ directory.
  Developers and code contributors should install the extension from Git instead, using:

• Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:

  wfLoadExtension( 'LanguageTag' );
  $wgLanguageTagLanguages = array( "en", "de", "hu" ); // Adjust that array to set what language tag's should be parsed.
