Multilingual - mix of 1:1 and region-specific content

Questions
1

Hi all,

I’m wondering what a solution would look like for a multilingual website where most of the content is 1:1 (so, language variants), but there’s an additional requirement for some additional pages that are region/language-specific (ie only exist in that one language, which implies separate root nodes).

Mixing the two feels like a clumsy approach though - anyone got a tidy way of approaching this?

Thanks!

Mike

I’m not sure what you mean by this: *(ie only exist in that one language, which implies separate root nodes)?

If most content is the same, you can just create a few pages in just one language instead of all language variants? Why does that require separate root nodes?

Thanks Luuk - I thought that one language was set as the default language - I didn’t realise that you could create pages that didn’t have a published version in the default language… if that’s possible, then it solves my dilemma - thank you!

Yes that is very much possible, as long as the default language is not required.
