A different layout for one language #

The German home page has a different hero than the English one.

Life cycle: Launch, example 17 of 33. Worked out on the Fit & Healthy site of Exponential 6.0.15+.

3. Which to choose
4. Check

In the Layouts editor #

1. Layouts > Layout mappings > New mapping; Link layout: the German home layout; Priority: above the general home mapping.
2. Target: Location with the home node, Add target.
3. Condition: Siteaccess and choose the German siteaccess in the list, Add condition.
4. Add mapping.

The Starter mappings of this installation work that way: siteaccess: starter, starter_ger.

With templates #

1. Per-siteaccess override.ini in your extension's settings/siteaccess/<sa>/ is the template way.

Which to choose #

Only when the composition differs; translated content alone needs no extra layout.

• Each siteaccess shows its layout.
