TYPO3

Show in app

Description

TYPO3 offers the function to deliver contents, datasets as well as metadata multilingual. Content elements can be translated via a "free" or "connected" mode. The number of languages that can be editorially recorded is not limited in TYPO3.

Goals

  • I can provide page translations in any pre-configured language.
  • I know the difference between the free and connected mode of translation and know how to configure them.
  • I can switch between the columns and the language view in the page module.
  • I can edit translated pages, content elements and data records.
  • I know the translation view in the module List.
  • I know how to provide and edit translations of file metadata.
  • I know the translation overview of the module Info.
  • I know that certain combinations of actions on content elements can lead to "mixed" mode and how to reset to "free" or "connected" mode.
  • I know that using "mixed" mode implies a lot of challenges when editing content (e.g.: changing the order of content elements).
