[pmwiki-users] Multiple Languages, RSS and Categories.

[Stirling Westrup]

I am currently working on a recipe for a multi-lingual blog, and I'm having
trouble figuring out how I should implement tags so that RSS feeds work.

With a single blog, one often just sticks [[!foo]] into a blog page, and its
automagically picked up by the RSS feed and a <category>foo</category> gets added.

My problem is that I want the English RSS feed to only link to English
articles using English category names, and the French Blog should be similarly
set up. Now, I can't just mix them altogether into one Category group, because
some labels (like 'blog') are the same in French and English, and I don't want
someone looking up Category/Blog to get a mix of languages.

I've been thinking of setting up individual Category-like groups (probably
'Tags' for English and 'Balises' for French) and creating links like
[[Tags.thing]] and [[Balises.chose]]. This will keep my tags in separate
namespaces, but how do I get the separate RSS feeds for the two blogs to each
grab the right category pages?
