In the latest Wordpress version 4.1 you should be able to change language by visiting:
Settings > General : Change Site Language option value.
Language can be selected from a list of available languages.
but i can only find English language is there anyway to upload Arabic language also?
As far as I know, Arabic language also requires a RTL (right-to-left) template, so you would need to install a plugin for that.
Do you want to switch the administration section to Arabic or just the frontend template?
I have successfully used this plugin - https://wordpress.org/plugins/arabic-font/ - for several posts and pages.

I have a dynamic WordPress site , and I want to provide it in more than one language, I searched for a way to add the ability to change the language without plugins, and I did not find it.
Is there a way to make the site's language change when I add ?hl=en or ?hl=en in the link like this?
https://www.example.com/?hl=en
https://www.example.com/?hl=fr
using php
Thanks
No, there is not currently a way to accomplish this without plugins, other third-party tools, or significant custom development. It is outside the scope of the framework. However, is there any reason you don't want to use a plugin? There are many great options, many free. If you see the link below, those free options listed in my quote include a link to the plugins for easy access.
From the documentation:
WordPress does not support a bilingual or multilingual blog
out-of-the-box. There are however Plugins developed by the WordPress
community which will allow you to create a multilingual blog easily.
Creating a mulitlingual blog is basically installing WordPress in more
than one language and letting the Plugin switch between them. This
includes installing .mo languages files which most Plugins will
require you to do manually. See Installing WordPress in Your Language
for details.
The free WPGlobus, Polylang, qTranslate-X, xili-language or
Sublanguage plugins are installable on standalone WordPress sites. For
multisite WordPress (one website per language), you can try Multisite
Language Switcher, Zanto or Multilingual Press or purchase WPML.
Please follow the below step:
Log in to your WordPress dashboard and go to Settings>>General.
In the Site Language dropdown list, select the language you want to use.
Click Save Changes.
I want my Site to be available in different languages, so when a visitor stops by, he automatically reads his language.
The Plugin should be free and easy to install :)
Polylang is a great free and open-source WordPress plugin which allows you to create a bilingual or multilingual WordPress site. It detects the system language and will automatically switch to that language.
I make an website on wordpress. It must be supported by two languages - English and Bangla. Users choose language option to select language. How can I set laguage support? Please reply as early as possible.
Use plugins, try using qtranslate https://wordpress.org/plugins/qtranslate/
You can use WPML for multi language support.
I have a multilingual website, and I'm trying to figure out how to make it open automatically in a certain language based on user's location... Could someone refer me to the article or website which describes this?
P.S. I'm using WordPress
You may want to look at the Multi-language switcher plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/multisite-language-switcher/
First, you need a Plugin for WP as mentioned above. WP does not support multilingual websites by default.
Automatically displaying the right language is not wrong, as long as you have an option for the user to change the language.
The Pro Version should have language detection, but not sure if it is available yet:
https://github.com/inpsyde/multilingual-press
is it possible to change the language of my wordpress installation (WP 3.0 Multisite) only in frontend (without editing the .mo/.po files)?
changing this option here:
does also change my language in backend.
any ideas?
thanks for helping!
i'm looking for this information too.
for now i have found this links useful:
wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bogo/
wordpress.org/extend/plugins/admin-in-english/
oh, finaly. this plugsin solves my problem:
Kau-Boy's Backend Localization
just install it trough the Plugin Manager
or from here:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/kau-boys-backend-localization/
and then default wordpress language - will be in the front-end
back-end language you can set in plugin settings.
p.s. for full multi-language support you can use wpml.org

DimeDroll
all this plugins didn't effect as i wanted, so i created my own plugin.
available here:
one-backend-language (working with 3.0)
Lets you choose your Backend Language for your complete Backend, also if your Frontend is using another Language (including Multisite).
You can choose from any language you installed. For a list of availible languages, check "WordPress_in_Your_Language" or create your own files.
