Would it be possible to add an option to translate the event name and description to different front-end languages?

@Genie3000: do you have any idea?

Hi, in JED there's a plugin "Easy Language". You can write the event descriptions in the different wanted languages. And Joomla decides with the language abreviations, which text to show. ( This is not for the event name in the title, but helps you a lot!

The plugin "Easy Language" is compatible with J2 and J3, but there is no version for J4 and J5 (although it can easily be updated to support them). However, it is not the best solution because using this plugin creates a secondary issue with SEO.

To address this, we need to replicate each event in JEM for every language, similar to how articles are handled in Joomla. This way, JEM will have a unique event link for each language, ensuring proper SEO.

The proposal is to create events with a new attribute, 'lang'.

Any other idea?
