Multilingual Content in Drupal 7 & 8

Click to watch "Multilingual Content in Drupal 7 & 8"

Organize your content in multiple languages in a consistent way with the state of the art method. Learn how Drupal's new field-based approach to entity translation will change the way you structure, display, and translate multilingual content.

Multilingual site building with Drupal can be challenging, and using field-based translation with Drupal 7 and Drupal 8 introduces many new benefits and challenges for site builders. For a long time, the standard content translation method has been to have a separate node for each language. With field-based translation, one piece of content holds all translations on a field-by-field basis.

In this session, I'll walk you through the process of building a multilingual website and planning multilingual content, and particularly how field-level translation fits into the mix.
