In a multilingual database you can have as many languages as you wish. However due to the space available on the editing pages, a maximum of five language fields can be available for editing at any one time. The Active Languages page is where you specify which languages are to be visible while you are working; check or uncheck the language boxes as appropriate. Note that the Active Languages page is common for all nodes in the database; the languages selected in this page will be available for all the nodes.
The languages selected here will be remembered such that when you move out of the database, upon return, the active languages selected in the previous session will be re-selected.
Note: You select which languages are to be available in your database on the Overview page.
