## Beschrijving

This wordpress plugin adds a meta box for specifying html lang=”” language per post.

### The problem this plugin solves

WordPress allows us to specify site-wide language defaults like so:

    ```
    <meta http-equiv="content-language" content="es">
    ```

The problem comes about if you have blog posts in various languages. Personally 
I write posts in either English or Norwegian. And since English is set as the site-
wide language posts that are in Norwegian end up looking kinda weird due to weirdly
placed `-` (hyphenations).

### Solution

The solution is to add more specific html `lang` attributes when needed.

    ```
    <article id="" class="" lang="vi">
    ```

For example this specifies that the post is in Vietnamese. This plugin enables a
meta box when editing posts where you may specify the post’s language.

### Contributing

This plugin was made in a jiffy. But by all means do suggest improvements. For instance
the plugin obviously lacks testing code.

Clean and simple plugin, should be no risk to use it with any theme. Looking fwd
seeing if it will work for SEO purposes.
