Multi-Site Manual / Version 2506.0
Table Of ContentsThis section guides you through details in designing custom locales apart from the available locales as provided by your JDK.
Each site in CoreMedia Multi-Site requires a locale to be chosen. And within each hierarchy of sites, the chosen locale must be unique for one site within this hierarchy.
For special use cases such as Abstract Sites it is possible to create custom locales. The following sections will guide you through the process of designing such locales.
Designing your custom locale comprises the following steps:
Define a valid and unique language tag as described in Section 3.2.1, “Defining Valid Language Tags”.
Add the new language tag to Studio as described in Section 3.2.2, “Adding Locales to CoreMedia Studio”.
A typical example for a custom locale is sketched in Section 3.2.3, “Example: The Global Site Locale”.
The World Region 001
IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) provides a region subtag 001
to represent the region World. This region subtag is
registered at the
IANA Language Subtag Registry.
For some use-cases, like the aforementioned Abstract Sites, this region subtag may be a good alternative to custom locales.
