Is it possible to copy the content from one language variant to another in Umbraco V8?
In V7 we can do by simply copy the node, but in V8 it not possible I think, is there any way to copy or any package for this?
I didn't try this ;), but what I am thinking is we can show an option for copy the content to a specified language on the right-click menu of content.
And this triggers an API, and that will publish the content in the given language.
Hi
When v8 first came out I wrote this package which auto translates for you using azure text translation. It gave you a right click action menu item called auto translate and another screen with some more options. When you confirmed it went off, got the translations for the languages not filled in and updated those fields in the relevant languages. I feel like you could use this code as a starting point for what you want to achieve.
Also don’t forget the split view which is the whole reason why we don’t have tabs anymore. Split view let’s you have 2 different languages side by side making it easy to copy and paste etc.
Copy content from One Language to Another
Hey guys,

Hey there? Anyone 🙂🙂?
Did you figure anything out here? There is another topic with the same question here: https://our.umbraco.com/forum/using-umbraco-and-getting-started/99977-is-there-a-fast-way-to-copy-content-from-one-variant-to-another-for-content-templates#comment-99977 also no answer.
I would be really interested.
No, I think we can't directly do with the default options because the variants belong to the culture.
But I think we can do this by extending the current
section treeshttps://our.umbraco.com/documentation/extending/section-trees/treesI didn't try this ;), but what I am thinking is we can show an option for copy the content to a specified language on the right-click menu of content. And this triggers an API, and that will publish the content in the given language.

Hi Paul,
That's cool 🤘🏻🙌🏻
