    Description

      Problem
      trying to configure multilanguage content. I used this documentation here: https://docs.magnolia-cms.com/product-docs/6.2/Administration/Language/Language-configuration.html and did these steps:

      • configuration of system languages
      • enabling multilanguage authoring (in /config/server/i18n/authoring)
      • enabling i18n content support (in /config/server/i18n/content)
      • definition of locales in the site (adding i18n/locales/... to my site with class info.magnolia.cms.i18n.DefaultI18nContentSupport -> single tree)
      • set i18n = true on content type properties
         
        See my dummy-app.yaml
         
        !content-type:dummy
        name: dummy-app
        label: Dummy
        icon: icon-content-app
        subApps:            
          detail:
            form:
              properties:
                name:
                  i18n: true
                title:
                  i18n: true
         
        I get a language dropdown while editing websites but no one when I add same data from another workspace eg. in my dummy-app.
         

      Update

      documentation: https://docs.magnolia-cms.com/product-docs/6.2/Developing/API/Delivery-API/Requesting-localized-content-with-the-delivery-endpoint.html
      I had to configure locales for the fallback site or extend a site definition with locales. While editing structured content (not pages) the locales fo the fallback site will be used while showing the language toggle.
