  2. Use the 'Manage translatable properties' section as described below.


This section allows you to:

  • enable/disable property usage - this is done via the check-boxes in the "State" column. If a content property is disabled, it will not be included into the translation scope;
  • define a path for a specific property - although "Field name" column represents a field name, you can also add a path to a field here. This will help you to extract a property from a specific level. Regular expressions can also be used here;
  • add a new property - allows you to add a new property;
  • remove a property - removes a property.
    Note: add and remove options are available only if a channel works with dynamic content types.
