Understanding Mukurtu Multilingual

The updated Mukurtu Multilingual module allows users to fully translate and localize their Mukurtu sites into one or more languages. Translation is (at the simplest level) converting words from one language to another. Localization is the process of adapting content and structure more exhaustively for another language. Users can easily toggle between languages using the "Language Switcher" button.

Mukurtu CMS fully supports Unicode character encoding, so if you can access to a keyboard for your language, it should be accepted with no issue. If you have questions about language-specific keyboards, please contact support@mukurtu.org for resources and references to support this. Our default font is BC Sans as it has wide display coverage for many languages.
