Hello.
So I used content translation capability to make a page node available in two languages. Now I want to make sure this content is promoted to the front page and displayed in the appropriate language. No dice: front page promotion feature seems to be pretty low-level, bypassing the content translation layer. If I promote the English version, it will be on the front page regardless of what language is set in the browser options, if I promote both English and Russian, both will display. How do I solve this?
Also, wouldn't it make sense to ensure that a translation is not a separate node, but rather a node version? It seems to me that in terms of CMS a content/interface language is another dimension (meaning it forms a sematic plane of its own), so it would make more sense to handle language in such a way that translated content remains ONE node, or is wrapped into an abstraction node that allows us to treat a multilingual node as a single unit.
Thank you for your comments.
Alex.
