Multi-language & Multilingual CMS

Magnolia's multilingual CMS allows you to manage multi-language and multi-regional sites in a single Magnolia instance, while adhering to best practice. Multi-language sites allow you to extend your reach to a global audience, while Magnolia's multilingual CMS functionality ensures an international content authoring alignment.

With Magnolia's multil-language CMS, administrators are now able to define one single site structure across all languages ensuring that all content is identical, albeit in different languages. A fallback mechanism allows definition of a default language that will be displayed, should translated content be unavailable.

Creating input masks for internationalized websites is easy with Magnolia's multilingual CMS. 

Multilingual CMS dialogs benefit from the ability to mark a dialog field as 'i18n aware' by adding an i18n node-data to its definition. If a field is marked as i18n, Magnolia CMS will create the necessary data structures for each supported language on-the-fly. The mechanisms is fully backwards-compatible.

A new configuration option allows you to define which languages your site should support. If your site supports more than one language, a drop-down menu entry on the main bar, which lets the user switch between the supported languages. Magnolia's multi-language CMS then renders the dialog based on the currently selected language.

If a dialog field is not marked as 18n-aware, its content will be the same for all languages. This can be useful for elements like icons or links
