Multilingual websites are the key to successful communication in international business. JoomFish is the first and completely open multilingual solutions for managing your translations in Joomla. The translation workflow enables you to organize unlimited languages and any information available in the Joomla CMS.
The project was founded back in 2004 with the first initial version for the CMS Mambo. One million downloads later the project serves a wide range of corporate websites, shopping portals and government organizations to provide their multilingual content to the world wide audience. Among the many other projects the United Nations, The World Health Organization Africa, The Brazilian Alliance in the USA, The European Community of Skiteachers uses Joomfish on theirs websites.
The purpose of Joomfish is not to automatically translate your website but to help you in the management of the translation process. By managing multiple content languages you can link complete localizations of your original information and provide a complete localized information to your customers. At this point Joomfish does not stop by managing your content translations but also allow you to change the for example the price of a product depending on the language or country you provide the services for.
For the project is important that the whole source code is released under the GPL since the first version. The sources of our core extension are always available free of charge, even the most recent development trunk. This gives you the chance to risk free test and evaluate the solution prior integrating it in your website.
For web agencies and professional users we offer an optional service club providing you with professional support and additional multi-lingual solutions. This club gives you the possibility to protect your investment on the longer term as you can provide additional quality and services to your customers while using the risk free and predictable products. As all our products and add-ons are released under the GPL as well, you can use them without limitations of time and distribution.
For the JoomFish team Alex Kempkens, Geraint Edwards and Carolien de Groot will attend the J and Beyond conference. We will have several talks and try to organize an open meeting about the future of Joomfish.
