Comments on: Wordpress in Japanese and English http://www.japanitup.com/wordpress-japanese-english-5/ The adventures of an American living in Japan.

I have one blog about raising children in Japan and related issues that's written entirely in Japanese (http://bigdaddyjapan.com). I changed the wordpress settings so that everything is Japanese and in utf-8, which is fine because utf-8 has no problem with English. However my Japanese news commentary site (newzjapan.com) is primarily in English. Until now I thought that it was impossible for me to use Japanese characters along with the English without switching the whole site to utf-8. Now thanks to you I can. This is extremely valuable information. Thank you for sharing it. Multilingualism on the net is good. This is really really great advice.

That is the weirdest spam I've ever seen. ANYWAY, Nice post! I had a similar problem with wordpress and found the solution after a lot of searching (I put the link to the post I did about it as my website link). I am thinking about doing a little series on helping Japan-bloggers with improving their wordpress blogs (more of an interchange of help really. I'm a bit of a wp newbie too). One thing I notice on almost all of the wordpress Japan blogs is that no one has installed a mod that notifies commenters when there is a reply! I have not installed one yet either, but when I do I want to recommend it to everyone else and tell them step by step how it is done (save them some trouble hopefully). If you know any good mods that we should all know about let me know and I will spread the word. btw, I assumed that this site ran on drupal (because of the drupal favicon). Is it some sort of drupal wordpress hybrid? what in the world is up with that comment above mine? That is the weirdest spam I’ve ever seen.
