Hallo,
the vB3 offers the chance to have multi languages, but at the moment it is unfortunally only for registred / logged-in users possible to select a language. Guests / not logged-in users will see always the default language.
With this modification you can offer your guests / not-logged-in users an option to select a language, so they can see the forum and the registration in the selected language. Further the selected language will be set during the registratin as default for the new user.

Update 05. January 2004 (added version 2)
Update 09. March 2004 (added version 3)
Update 27. March 2004: Tested in 3.0.0 Gold
Version 1:
In this version you have to enter for each language a menue-entry manually
Version 2:
This version detects the selectable languages automaticly and the menue-entries are created automaticly too. To get the menue-entries, the function "Use DHTML Popup Menus" must be activated. This version has an additional query with each page-call. If you don't like this, use version 1.
Version 3:
This version is based on version 1, but it detects the browser-language automatic and shows the board in the language of the user. This automatic-detection of the user-language was realised by WildChild. Thanks for this extension of my hack. Note the difference to my version 2: My Version 2 detects the installed languages automatic, version 3 detects the language which is set in the users browser !
Note: A german version of the installation-instructions you will find http://www.vbulletin-germany.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8649
