 * What’s the best MultiLingual website WP plugin?
 * I checked WPML and qTranslate, but I’m wondering what could be the best solution
   for my first WP business website (I’m using Curio theme from ThemeForest).
 * Do all ML plugins require theme compatibility?
 * Please bring me directly to the……bottom line!
 * Thanks

 * I use WPML and am quite happy with it, especially the version that was released
   recently.
 * It’s not perfect, but generally works very well. They could do some things to
   make it better, e.g.
    1. Using correct international codes for languages and 
   flag images etc. 2. Allowing horizontal listing of flags instead of forcing single
   column vertical listing (or dropdown) 3. Allowing listing of flags without language
   names (and language names to be included as tooltips for flag images) etc.
 * But in general it’s pretty good.
 * Remember, it’s a paid module, though.

 * But it seems that only compatible themes can use WPML, or am I wrong?
 * To make theme WPML compatible is something up the author only or it can be done
   in some way also by theme’s user?

 * WPML website says
 * > Every theme or plugin that uses WordPress API runs multilingual with WPML.
 * I am using Weaver, which is not explicitly marked as WPML compatible, but works
   fine. I suspect most themes probably use WordPress API.
