We offer the following services to serve the unique and evolving needs of your business:
  • 24/7 Emergency Support
  • Low-Cost Annual Support Packages
  • Drupal Module Integration and Development
  • Linux and Drupal Scheduled Systems Maintenance

Multilingual User Activation Emails

Our Drupal 7 / Ubercart 7 eCommerce website attracts customers who operate in three different written languages.  

By order of popularity, they are:


  • Traditional Chinese
  • Simplified Chinese
  • English

So when a new customer comes to us, we would like them to tell us what their preferred language is just once, and from that moment on be operating in that language forevermore.

More generally, we want our new customer experience to go like this:



  1. Customer comes to website
  2. Customer chooses preferred language
  3. Customer browses website 
  4. Customer drops desired items in Shopping Cart
  5. Customer chooses to Checkout
  6. Customer Registers
  7. Customer Validates
  8. Customer Pays
  9. Customer is updated regarding order status
  10. Customer receives goods

To facilitate this, and make things as easy as possible for our new customers, we have placed a Language switcher at the top of our Home page:


Let's see how this actually goes:
