Hm, I did not plant to turn on the "multi-language support" because I will not translate every story as each language group will have own and different stories but they will all share the portal.
As far as I understood up to now with the "multi-language support" German users would not see English stories, is that correct
: Some users will be multilingual.
It is a similar system with
ebay. Usually you find items in your ebay country but if there are no items then it also shows you international items. The system language is always the chosen one.
My idea is rather that the search should find stories, static pages, forums and possibly links in the preferred language. If there are none it could point out other findings.
