 * Is there a way to make the language settings for self hosted wordpress work like
   wordpress.com I cannot figure out for the life of me why you would not put that
   feature in for the community that pushes wordpress out to the world? The community
   that has most of the business world starting to convert their regular sites to
   wordpress driven sites. I have a client who wants their site in English and then
   a copy in Chinese. How do I do that when I don’t speak or read Chinese. At wordpress.
   com I can set the admin to different language?
 * Please Help

 * You can install a plugin like qTranslate which allows you to translate pages 
   and posts into other languages.
 * It also allows you to change the backend of things into different languages after
   changing a setting. That said, if you want WordPress in a different language 
   have a look at this page – [http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language](http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language)

 * I need all the page navigation image overlays and content for the end-user, back-
   end, and everything to be in Chinese? and then English for US.

 * The plugin qTranslate should be helpful to you then. It allows you to translate
   a WordPress site into different languages and different languages for the backend.
 * You can find the plugin in WordPress Extend on this website.
