    Multilingual site with multiple domains thinking on future

    Hi guys, i have read too much posts and information but i can't get a final idea on how to do it.

    I have an umbraco site being developed, i access it through IP, but when finished we'll have about 3-4 different domain to access it:

    • domain.eu
    • domain.es
    • domain.ma
    • domain.mx
    • domain.pt

    Im using multilingual site with different site nodes

    WEBCONTENT
     -Website ES (spanish)HOME
     ---contentA_ES
     ---contentB_ES
     ---contentC_ES
     -Website FR (French)HOME
     ---contentA_FR
     ---contentB_FR
     ---contentC_FR
     -Website EN (English)HOME
     ---contentA_EN
     ---contentB_EN
     ---contentC_EN
     -Website FR (Portuguese)HOME
     ---contentA_PT
     ---contentB_PT
     ---contentC_PT

    But want
    .EU-> EN HOME
    .ES-> ES HOME
    .MA-> FR HOME
    .MX-> ES HOME
    .PT-> PT HOME

    What must i do to get it working?
    ->add them to IIS?
    ->use the redirection on Umbraco that makes if you are using www.domain.ma go to-> 
    http://domain.eu/fr/home?.aspx ????
    ->in which ways must i use the Hostnames on umbraco content folders for es/fr/... folders?


    And thinking on future, what about if tomorrow i get a .com and want a subdomain structure like fr.domain.com - es.domain.com ...etc would be possible?

    Thank you guys, i appreciate this awesome community.

    Add the domain to the IIS site, and as long as you have the content seperated out like that, you can use hostnames (right click on the nodes just below the "Cotent" root node, select Manage hostnames).

    Unless I'm totally missing something in your question, that should be it.

    regards,

    Steen

    Ah, then I misunderstood you, I thought the question was if pt.domain.es would work, not test.domain.es/pt

    nonono, your reply was ok. i'll try with it the day we launch the website with diferent.

    i'm only saying that now i was trying with http://testdomain.doman.es/.... /fr/ /pt/ /en/ ...etc

    and with your last reply i think that with your sollution i can make it working with different domain names .com .es .de .fr ...etc and with subdomains

     

    isnt it?

    Thanks for your time Steen

    Best regards

    Ah, okay, well, no problem!

    I'm actually working on a site that works with http://domain/fr, http://domain/it and http://domain/hu etc., and that does take some more work to sort that out, and a few minor "hacks".

    Anyway, I'm happy I could help!

    But I prefer the hostnames solution, no doubt about that, so I would go with that if at all possible!
