Multi-language content creation in
Immediacy
Immediacy CMS can be used to deploy multi-language sites in
three ways:
- Create ad-hoc pages in another language
- Set up separate and distinct sites for each language
- Create a single site with alternate language versions for each
page
The first approach works when only a proportion of the site
needs to be in another language. There may or may not be any
correlation with content on other parts of the site. In this case
the author can simply type content in the required language.

The second approach is suitable when a whole site needs to be
delivered in another language, but the different language sites do
not need to be identical. This will likely be the case when the
content relates to activities of different branches of an
organisation with their own regional activities. This is delivered
with simply by setting up a new copy of the site, which can be done
in minutes with Immediacy, with templates reflecting the new
language where applicable (i.e. when there is text in any of the
template images).

mixed language audience
The third approach is valid when there must be alternate
language content for the majority of pages, or perhaps for every
page on the site. This may be needed for regulatory compliance, or
when the site will likely be used by a mixed language audience.
Immediacy enables multi-language content at page level by using
alternate templates and template switching. This technique allows
content to be targeted at different platforms, and it also supports
alternate language content.
