yd-setup-locale
It will automatically setup the right XML header lang attribute + the internal Wordpress $locale variable that is used to load the right language files for i18n and l10n (.po, .mo).
Usage:
Your blog URL structure should always begin with an official two-letter langage code, for example:
/en/… for english
/es/… for Spanish
/ja/… for Japanese
/fr/… for French
etc.
Pages that don’t comply to this URL scheme will still get your blog’s default locale setting, as configured in your wp-config.php file.

is this product for just pages or is it for posts as well. seems to suggest that it will be only pages??
Would be nice also if you sorted out this page so that it was in english not in French….. http://www.yann.com/en/wp-plugins/yd-setup-locale as it does not give me much confidence to download and work with your plugin.

It does pages and posts, as long as you setup your posts url to begin with 2-letter country code. It only changes the meta and html header information appropriately, as well as Wordpress internal variables. You still have to translate the content yourself! As for this page, just lookup the html code, you will see the headers are set right for English (en). I did not translate my site’s side menu but this is unrelated: if I were to provide a .POT translation file for example, it would work.

Yann,
thanks for your reply. So in essence I will need to have a seperate wordpress setup for each language /en /fr /es so that I can start my blog with that as the first name, or is there something funky I can do with the Permalinks settings?
I hate to say it, but I am viewing english [en] as my browser language and it is defaulting to french date time and form text is also in french.
