hi, there is a chance to have a multilanguage prestashop site?

i mean really multilanguage: frontoffice, invoice, mails..

yes, this is no problem and one of the main strengths of PrestaShop.

 

After you install you shop simply add from back office languages you want and then you can update your shop content by language...

and what about the invoices? if i have some text in invoice.tpl (directly in the file, no variables), there is a way to have 2 invoice.tpl for 2 language?

native prestashop when you import lang pack should include all emails/invoices etc.  this assumes that it's not an obscure language...I have not seen an issue with our multilingual shops using mostly common foreign languages

so long i need italian, english and chinese

 

traditional chinese would be a problem?

I think those three languages are well covered.  Note: for custom content you will need to do your own translations,  i.e. product/category/seo etc.

 

for native (in the box) modules for example they typically will have these xlations.

 

I will move this topic to Tranlsataion packs of forum for community review.

 

Note: installation is not such a good place to post general questions..
