Having two languages on a single domain

[daisy34]

I want to have two calendars to view, one in English, one in Korean. I was reading the other threads and know it's possible. The solution is to install the calendar twice, once for each language then share a common mySQL database.

Cool! I know I can do it. My question is in reference to adding a new event. Since it's one database do I only add the event once, if so on the add event screen will I now have double the fields, one for each language? Will I need to add the event twice, once in the English add event screen and once in the Korean add event screen? If that's the case how will the database know which events to show on the English calendar or the Korean calendar? Or will it show both?

My preference is that there is only one add event screen and there are options for each language. I realize that would take some programming on my end. Would this be possible?

Thanks.

If you want the events in separate languages, you'll need to separate installations, database and all.

You also have the option to use a shared database, and use a sub-category to define if the event is English or Korean. The problem with this solution is that you will not be able to have Korean and English characters defining the days as you will have a single configuration file.

If your interface to the calendar needs to be bilingualized, then you have no option other than to have two separate installations. Note that you will have to modify your second installation's config.inc.php to give your table a different name, so that you can use the same database. The original table name is epc_calendar.
