Multilingual Documents

You can manage each document in multiple languages. Through a language selector you can choose the language to be displayed for the entire Wiki. In order to activate the language selector, you must first create a selection list with the languages you want to use. Then you create two customer-specific attributes:

  • a simple selector list named “WikiDocumentLocale

  • an item selector with the name “WikiDocumentLocaleReference”.

You assign the language list to the first attribute. Now when you go to the Wiki view, you get a language selector at the top. In the context menu of a document, you are given the option of creating other language versions of the document.

If you create a new language variant in this way, the attribute “WikiDocumentLocaleReference” will be set to the original document (in the language selected in the Wiki above), and the attribute “WikiDocumentLocale” will be set to the new language.

Therefore, you only need to set the two attributes “WikiDocumentLocale” and “WikiDocumentLocaleReference” on the input screens for your documents if you want to change the values later.
