    I have been searching for a simple and supported method for switching between a 2-language version of the same site; 2 WordPress installations, 2 databases and NO multisite.

    I’m giving this 4 stars because it works and does exactly what I need. The ONLY reason I’m NOT giving it 5 stars is because it’s cryptic as hell.

    I realize the plugin developer has freely donated his time to create and share the plugin. Yay. Thanks!

    If the developer really wants it to be accessible and user-friendly, I suggest doing one or more of the following (bearing in mind that many people using the plugin are not professional coders):
    – Provide up to date written documentation, including examples of how the plugin can be used in a theme.
    – Provide some screenshots of how to properly configure the plugin settings.
    – Provide some FAQs reflecting some of the common questions being asked in the support forum.
    – Provide a basic bilingual demo.

    If you’re like me and you only need basic switching between 2 sites, pop this into the header.php file on each site:

    <?php
    the_bilingual_link();
    ?>

    …despite what it says in the “instructions”.

    Thus endeth my rant.
