   I'd like to add a Japanese flag button on each post so the same post can be read in Japanese - hence a bilingual blog. Thanks!

   The blog I need help with is thefoodulove.wordpress.com.

   You could add Google Translation Tools to your Sharing feature. Yes, I know, it's intended for Facebook, Twitter and the like, but it would still work. I tried it.

   First, find a Japanese flag of size 16 x 16 pixels and upload it to your website.

   Then, follow the instructions here:
   http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/#adding-your-own-service

   Under "Sharing URL", you'd enter the following information:
   http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=en&tl=ja&u=%post_url%

   Under "Icon URL", enter the URL of the Japanese flag in question.

   Hope it helps!

   Would the Japanese be kinda weird if I used Google translate? I can write in Japanese so was thinking I could write a post and link it with a button...

   Oh, sorry! You added a "translate" tag so I thought you meant an automatic translation.

   Here are some solutions:
