Publishing Options with Scroll Content Manager

Key Differences for Multilingual Intranets in Scroll Content Manager

If you're converting from Scroll Translations to Scroll Content Manager for a multilingual intranet, here are the key changes to be aware of.

Publishing to another space

When publishing languages to another target space with Scroll Content Manager, keep the following changes in mind:

  • Single-language publishing: Only one language can be published at a time to the same space.

  • Prefixes required: To publish multiple languages to the same target space, use prefixes to distinguish each language’s page tree.

  • No language picker: In the target space, users navigate by selecting pages in the page tree, there’s no language picker.

For better navigation experience, publish each language to its own space.

Publishing within the authoring space

When keeping the languages within your authoring space with Scroll Content Manager, keep the following changes in mind:

  • Separate page trees per language: Each language gets its own structured page tree.

  • Language picker available: Readers can switch languages using the picker in the Document toolbox.
