About Localization

Localization is the new and great characteristic of DNN3. At this moment, the platform supports only static content, but the plans to obtain location of the dynamic part are on way and widely discussed by the core team and also by third parties. The problems that appear at the time of carrying out an attempt to completely locate the content of a page:

  • How to store the dynamic content
  • To take in consideration several similar languages (es-BO, es-UY, etc.). That is to say, is it necessary to locate all if they are equal at the end?
  • If an external user fills information (ie. a forum), Who completes the content for the other languages?
  • and many more.

The idea is to be advancing step by step and the objective of my modules is to provide a solution for the content that can be filled by the administrators and who in certain form I consider that has static characteristics.

There are other groups creating the same kind of modules. I'll be publishing their websites as soon as I get knowledge of them.
