So I have a website in Multilanguage using different nodes for each language using the hostname option in Umbraco.
This means that each language has its own structure. But, what if I would want to maintain this setup, but for say Newsitems I want a global container outside the language nodes. like this:
-en - news - etc. -fr - actuelles - etc. -news - item1 - item2
Both the news pages in the languages would use the content from the global node.
I have been thinking about this, and the only way I came up to create this was to use the ID of the news item in the url. So if someone would click on /en/news/item1 the URL would be /en/news/item1/32. where 32 would be the nodeid from the global newscontainer.
In a newstemplate xslt script would fetch the correct contents.
Is this the only way to get this to work and maintain somewhat friendly urls? Or does anybody have another option for this.
Multi Language combination of hostnames and 1:1 ??
