Hello,

You can use the "Combine with default culture" setting in CMSSiteManager / Settings / Content. This will enable the display of the default culture document, if the given document isn't available in the other cultures.

RE:Kentico common pagefor language versions
When I checked the option "Cobine with default cultures" the multilan. blog appears on all versions, but also all posts from default page blog (another), which I made coppies for all language versions, appears in all, but I don't want this. Only one blog is common for all pages, the rest of content should be separated.

Hi,

Using this setting, you are telling the system what to do in case if the culture version of given document is not found (the document was not translated to this culture ) - when set to true, the default language version of the document is used - as you can see in your case. So, you need to create the culture versions of the documents to display their localized content.

However, the one blog page could be the same in all the language versions and rest will be localized as you need to.

So how I have to manage this : display one common blog for every version, and the rest of blogs should show only contet specified for the culture (I copied blogs from default version but new posts appears from default ver. when checked "combaine with...")?

Hi,

You can just ensure that the document will be always available in given cultures - so, the language specific content will be displayed even when using that setting.

Or, another option is to create the one page in all languages - and make it to be the same including the same URLs - so, it will act as one page but in fact the culture cookie will be different.

Yes, but it's blog, and for different campaign (different languages) it will have different posts, published in different time

RE:Kentico common pagefor language versions
Hi,

I think I am not getting it - also the common page will be different? I think I am confused and I do not know what exactly you want right now - if the common page should be the same I am not getting your last post about different posts - they will be different, of course, just the "main" page will be the same for all cultures. Or, am I missing something?

You can also create one language and use tree structure to divide the language versions.
You can also do a redirection from other languages to the main language only for given document - on its Properties tab -> Menu section. But, in this case you will have to set the culture cookie by yourself to reflect the culture selection of the user.

So, I think you want to have one page the same - the easiest think is to create it in the same way for all languages, have the same URLs so it won't hurt SEO and the rest could be different.
