There are two possible types of derived sites in a multi-site setup:

To get to know more about these two types of sites, see Section 3.1.1, “Translation and Synchronization”.

Typically, the site type is selected once in the lifetime of a site, which is when deriving the site from the master site.

The type is stored in the settings of your site at:

The type is determined by the struct named translationStrategies and can be either SYNC or LANG_TRANSLATION, denoted by the name of a corresponding nested struct node. See Example 4.14, “Translation Settings Struct”.

translationStrategies:
  # Empty Struct; alternative key: 'SYNC'
  LANG_TRANSLATION: {}
