Hello, I built my jekyll project with jekyll-i18n\_tags plugin. ([GitHub - KrzysiekJ/jekyll-i18n\_tags: Translate your Jekyll templates.](https://github.com/KrzysiekJ/jekyll-i18n_tags))

As the documentation says it is enough to add the language in the front matter like

> lang: fr for french

or

> lang: en for english

and use the liquid tags

> {% t Hello, world! %}

but the language is so hardcoded. I don’t see the usability to have multiple language this way. To be convenient, we should be able to change the language dynamically by clicking in on a flag for example. How can we change dynamically the language ?

Hello, I finally set up the translation of my jekyll pages thanks to this tutorial : [https://www.sylvaindurand.org/making-jekyll-multilingual/](https://www.sylvaindurand.org/making-jekyll-multilingual/). It is very well explained. Thanks for reading my post. The question is solved
