The Locale Switcher is a combo box that is available on the toolbar of every content form. It allows to switch through the various localized variants of the current content. The Locale Switcher can be configured using the flags described in this section.

Visibility

The Locale Switcher can be configured to be visible or hidden by default. The following example shows the configuration flags that is used to customize the visibility.

DocumentFormToolbarPlugin.LOCALE_SWITCHER_DISABLED = true | false;

Document Hierarchy Resolving

To calculate the correct translation/synchronization relation between two contents, the correct way is resolving a contents referrers and find the master content this way. Since this calculation can be expensive, the Locale Switcher simply resolves this relation using the site hierarchy instead. There are some setups though where especially the master document might be outside the site hierarchy, e.g. when using a shared master document. For these setups, the ASSUME_MASTER_IN_SITE_HIERARCHY flag can be set to false to force the Locale Switcher to resolve the relation using the referrers.

ContentSiteUtil.ASSUME_STRICT_SITE_HIERARCHY = true | false;
