Universalist
Description
Universalist lets you pair any primary language with any secondary language and write your page titles, headings, text, and lists in both. It automatically detects a visitor’s browser language, but you can also force the switch to the secondary language whenever needed. Once your two languages are selected, you can set dedicated content for each—giving every visitor a seamless, localized experience.

Faq
Yes. You can programmatically select a language by setting the plugin’s language cookie.
For example, the following links set the dj_universalist_lang_cookie to a specific language and reload the page so the change takes effect:
html
<a href="#" onclick="document.cookie='dj_universalist_lang_cookie=en;path=/;max-age=2592000';location.reload();return false;">English</a>
<a href="#" onclick="document.cookie='dj_universalist_lang_cookie=es;path=/;max-age=2592000';location.reload();return false;">Español</a>
The cookie persists for 30 days (max-age=2592000), so the user’s language choice is remembered across visits.
