    Hi, thanks again for your reply. I created a "languages" folder in the wp-content and moved the installed folders to this new folder. What I also did is change the blogname of each site to "example.com", just as is the main site ("www.example.com"). in the settings options I added "en" and "es" for the english and spanish version respectively. So it says now "example.com/en" and "example.com/es", in other words: the "us" is not there anymore. However, if I go to pages, I still only have the "us" option in the Multisite language switcher. Any idea what else could I be doing wrong??

    Move just the files into wp-content/languages and then go to "Settings". There must be now an option called "Site Language". Set this for every blog ... please have a look here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress_in_Your_Language#Multi-Site_Installations

    Hi, I'm following the steps of Tatou33 and trying to install your plugin on a multisite WP 3.4.1 installation. I also have a theme and it's custom child theme that I plan to use on both languages of the site (English and Spanish).
    However, I DO NOT have any languages folder in the wp-content folder. So, first question is should I create that folder and move/ copy all the files created by your plugin into it?
    Also, I have a languages folder inside my theme/theme-name/languages folder. Should I do something about is as it contains translation files specifically for the theme?

    Thanks a lot for your plugin and support.

    I did, and i got it working just a few minutes ago! Just one more question.
    I have just one user and three sites. The main one(index.com) I use it for browser redirection and the other two (index.com/en, index.com/es) one per language. If I go to the admin site of index.com there are two flags on each post (/en & /es) which is OK. Then if I go to index.com/en I can also see two flags, one per language. However if I go to index.com/es, both flags point to english.
    Am I missing something else?

    Please control the setup of the plugin and save it (/es/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=MslsAdmin) and then check the general settings (/es/wp-admin/options-general.php).

    Hi, I think here's the thing:
    The main site (redirecting purposes only), is set to English. Then, there's a second site set to English for English readers and a third one set to Spanish for, you guessed it, Spanish readers.
    So, in each of the sites, Spanish and English, link number 1 points to the other language, while link number 2 is pointing to the redirect site.

    I don't suppose there's a way to remove link number2 to avoid confusing the administrator?

    You can use the option "Exclude this blog from output" in the setup of the plugin in the main site.
