[Configuration] Multi Language Suppport

[wanzixin]

Hi, there. I add another language in my site like this. I just want to translate the menu bar and the time, number of words and reading time of each article, not the article itself. What should I do next?

[ppoffice]

@wanzixin You can try to copy your article to the target language directory. For instance, just copy everything from source/_posts/*.md to source/_posts/zh-CN/.

[wanzixin]

@ppoffice I did what you said, but I didn't succeed. What else should I pay attention to? This picture is my directory structure.

[ppoffice]

Create a test.md under both _posts and _posts/zh-CN and see if it works for that post. @wanzixin

[wanzixin]

@ppoffice I create a test.md in _post, then copy it to _posts/zh-cn. When I switch to simplified Chinese, the browser displays Cannot GET /zh-cn/Diary/test/. But I do have a test.md in _post/zh-cn.

@wanzixin Try to change your permalink to :slug/:

https://github.com/ppoffice/hexo-theme-minos/blob/site/_config.yml#L19

[wanzixin]

@ppoffice I change it as you said, but still get a mistake. After using the commands hexo c, hexo g and hexo s, I opened localhost:4000 and switched to simplified Chinese and got the following prompt on the console.

INFO  Start processing

In addition, when I use hexo g, I get such a error, and there are many such errors like this:

I think there must be something wrong that led to such a mistake, but I can't seem to find it.

[wanzixin]

@ppoffice I moved .config.zh-cn.yml file from the theme folder to the top folder. Now I can see some effects, but the menu bar still won't change the language. Is there any wrong with my settings？

/myblog/themes/minos/.config.yml
menu:
  Archives: /archives
  Categories: /categories
  Diary: /categories/Diary
  Gallery: /categories/Gallery
  Study: /categories/Study
  Item: /categories/Item
  About: /about

/myblog/.config.zh-cn.yml
menu:
  归档: /archives
  分类: /categories
  日记: /categories/Diary
  画廊: /categories/Gallery
  学习: /categories/Study
  项目: /categories/Item
  关于: /about

[ppoffice]

It's _config.yml and _config.zh-CN.yml.
