BluePrint example

A corporate Web site may have local sites in multiple countries, all of which have specific language and local content requirements. The following BluePrint shows a corporation which has Web sites for the following countries:

  • A site for Belgium that requires French and Dutch content
  • A site for the Netherlands that requires Dutch and English content
  • A site for Germany that requires English and German content

All the sites share the same design. Therefore, they share the same Page Templates and Component Templates. They also share the same content structure of Folders and Structure Groups. In this scenario, users at the corporate level create some of the content. They share this content, and translators translate it into the four languages. Language specific country Publications can share the translated information and can add local content. When users create Pages in these Publications and publish them, the resulting Web sites can include multilingual and region-specific information.
