kentico translation

hassan kalach asked on September 25, 2017 15:51

I have a kentico project with multiple cultures, and I am not using translation services to translate my pages, but I am adding the data of each page manually by switching to the each culture and creating a new page with a different content (the manually translated content). My problem is with the data within the webparts (example: static HTML texts), it seems that static HTML texts are shared between cultures and whenever I change the data in a certain culture, the texts in the others are changed too. I am searching for a way to distinguish the texts of a static HTML between cultures or languages, but without using the translations services. What can I do to separate the content of a webpart between distinct cultures?

Please note that I even tried creating blank pages, it still be created with some kind of a connection to the same data from another culture.

kentico 10 multi language

Hassan, you can use the Localization application to manage these strings (https://docs.kentico.com/k10/multilingual-websites/setting-up-a-multilingual-user-interface/working-with-resource-strings#Workingwithresourcestrings-Addingyourownstrings

Then use macro to insert these strings into web part properties.

You can use macro express to set a condition. something like if current culture is xx-yy, then use xx-yy.css. You can also use some kind of naming convention for all the CSS as well, and use macro to popluate the CSS, something like: stylesheet = {%currentculture%}.css
