Hi all, The biggest limitation of Magnolia we ran in to so far is localisation of content. Often confused with translation, at which Magnolia does a very decent (not to say: great) job. A tough nut to crack I know, but just wondering whether there have been any further thoughts/developments/changes in Magnolia to support local differences beyond translations, while still sharing a (80% similar) site tree. As said, any site we’ve built so far had this requirement of a small percentage of the content being really different, where most of the site is identical. Main examples are campaigns that only run in certain countries and news/blog entries that are only published in one locale; quite often you want pages as a whole, or paragraphs on a page, to be for one locale only.
We built several custom solutions for such issues with checkbox dialogs (“show this in the following locales: …”), but it was still a bit hacky. The current project upcoming is again an example of a number of local sites that are 80% similar, but have some requirements for country-specific pages/content. Separate trees is not maintainable (10 or more locales…). Any updates on this from Magnolia or the community?
