jprothero Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 What are locales, and how do they function? This is not covered in the latest MCC Admin Guide. For example, if I pick German, does it translate the site to German? Or does it just inherit attributes of German web hosting/browsing, and add a "de" as part of the URL?

FreightTrain Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 jprothero, Locales do translate standard MarcomCentral terminology. It does not translate the things the admin creates: Product names, description, folder names etc... In most cases, you would build a German and English version of each Product (assuming the content on the Product is language specific); then you would create a Group for each language so Users in that Group only see those respective Products. User's can have the default language locale assigned or they can select it. One of the benefits is that you can have a different user experience (UI) variations for each active locale; so German can have a German banner and English a different one. Locale has no affect on the URL. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
