## Opis

Starting with WordPress 4.3, you can use languages such as „Deutsch (Sie)” (formal
German) in your WordPress installation. But if the themes or plugins you are using
do not have a
 translation file for this language, WordPress would use the default
language, usually English, instead. With the help of this plugin, you can set a 
fallback for your chosen language. Every time a translation file is loaded, the 
plugin will then load the fallback if a translation for the originally chosen language
was not found.

A list of all my plugins can be found on the [WordPress Plugin page](http://kau-boys.com/wordpress-plugins)
on my blog [kau-boys.com](http://kau-boys.com).

## Instalacja

Install the plugin as usual from the plugins page on your dashboard (by search or
uploaded ZIP file) or upload it with FTP. You should then choose your fallback language
in „Settings > General”.

## Najczęściej zadawane pytania

### Does this plugin only work with formal German?

No. You can choose any fallback language that fits your original language. Think
about fallbacks from „Spanish (Mexico)” to „Spanish”.

### Do I need to manually install the fallback language?

No. The plugin will automatically download the fallback language if it is not already
installed.

### How can I report security bugs?

You can report security bugs through the Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program.
The Patchstack team helps validate, triage and handle any security vulnerabilities.

Als Nutzer des WordPress Plugins „Language-Fallback” bin ich äußerst zufrieden mit
der hervorragenden Unterstützung für mehrsprachige Websites. Die Funktion des Plugins,
automatisch die Sprache einer Seite zu erkennen und eine entsprechende Fallback 
Sprache anzuzeigen, funktioniert einwandfrei und trägt dazu bei, dass Besucher aus
verschiedenen Sprachregionen eine bessere Benutzererfahrung haben. Besonders beeindruckend
finde ich, wie einfach das Plugin zu installieren und zu konfigurieren ist. Ich 
schätze auch die reibungslose Integration mit anderen WordPress-Plugins und -Themes.
Es gab keinerlei Konflikte oder Probleme bei der Verwendung von Language-Fallback
in Verbindung mit anderen Erweiterungen. Insgesamt kann ich das WordPress-Plugin
Language-Fallback jedem empfehlen, der eine mehrsprachige Website betreibt oder 
betreiben möchte.

Wer bei einer deutschen (Firmen)Seite seine Besucher nicht versehentlich mit 'Du’
anreden will, für den ist dieses Plugin ein Muss. Danke Bernhard!

Great tool for falling back to Spanish (Spain) from partially (or not at all) translated
Spanish versions like Mexico, Colombia etc.

Best solution for me. Using „German_formal” and „German”…this plugin simply helps
me out of missing translations.

I didn’t realize that when wordpress is set to an altertative language variant such
as german_formal that there is no fallback to german if a plugin does not have a
complete translation to this variant. The functionality of this plugin should definitelty
be included in WP core. Great work!

de México.
