Activate multi-language wizard

You can set the file wizard in zCMS so that you can create or edit all language versions in one wizard. To do this, go to "Administration -> Settings -> General" under "File wizard", select the "Multi-language" entry and save the new settings. The new wizard will then be available to you when editing.

 

ZIP version

The "Multi-language" file wizard also gives you the option of uploading a ZIP file with several files for the different languages at once. To do this, the individual files must be named according to the following scheme:

 

File name structure
LANGUAGE_FILENAME.EXTENSION

 

Example with German and English file:
001_header.jpg
002_header.jpg

 

 

ZIP version with JSON _meta.json file

If you add a "_meta.json" file to the ZIP file, you can also upload all data for each language version directly. The JSON file has the following structure:

 

{

"001" : {

"file" : "DATEINAME",

"title" : "TITLE*",

"desc" : "DESCRIPTION",

"html" : "HTML DESCRIPTION",

"hyperlink" : "HYPERLINK",

"date" : "DATE",

"docType" : "DOCUMENT TYPE",

"languages" : ["de", "en", "nl"]

},

"002" : {

"file" : "FILENAME",

"title" : "TITLE*",

"desc" : "DESCRIPTION",

"html" : "HTML DESCRIPTION",

"hyperlink" : "HYPERLINK",

"date" : "DATE",

"docType" : "DOCUMENT TYPE",

"languages" : ["de", "en", "nl"]

},

...

}

 

This data is used to automatically save the fields "Title", "Description", etc. with the values of the JSON file.
