Why is Tag Processing Essential?

One of the most important things in setting up a localization process, is content processing. This is the stage where users should define:

...

On this form you will find following sections:

  • New Tags Processing - this section represents a list of tags, you do not have processing rules for.
  • Tags Processing Tag Rules - represents a list of tag processing rules.
  • Ignored Tags Processing - represents a list of tags which are ignored in a localization process.
  • Tags ProcessingTest Lab - allows you to run rule applying in a test mode, on a specific piece of content.

New Tags

Whenever a content passes through the content channel and tags with no processing rules are found (new tags), the iLangl system alerts you and shows these tags in the "New Tags" section.

...

4. You can now select specific content types for which the new tags should be displayed. You can also select all content types to check for new tags.

5. Now system analyses, finds all new tags and displays it. Here we can decide (pre-processing) what we should include in translation and what to exclude.
Apply tag rules under the tag tab. 

Working with New Tags 

  1. The New Tag display page allows you to define how to handle tags found. You can perform the following functions with new tags:

...

The wide combination of these rules offered by iLangl give you numerous possibilities when it comes to content processing. For example: you can check in the "CDATA" and "Html" flags. This will mean that
a tag's content will be wrapped into a CDATA and treated as an HTML. In case you have a situation, where a content of a same tag (
and even path) has to be translated in one case, but skipped in another,
depending on a content of another tag, you can define a tag and a path, and specify a condition. This will mean that a rule will be applied only for a tag in a specific path when specific conditions are met.

Setting up Custom Tag Rules

In this section users can add or edit and overview the tag processing rules for different types of content:

...

You can also order data in this section by a specific column or an attribute by clicking on the attribute name (Translate / Inline/ Exclude / HTML / CDATA). 

Ignored Tags

This section represents a list of tags, or regular expressions which define what tags your connector is going to ignore. This means that when a tag from this list is found in the content, it will not be processed or translated. To ignore tags check the “Exclude” option against the tag rule. Tags in this section are separated by ',’ (Figure ).

...

It is also possible to define tags to ignore via regular expressions. For example, you can ignore all tags by typing in the ".+" expression.

Tags Test Lab

The tags test lab allows you to test your tag processing rules on a specific piece of content. Users can copy and paste the test text here, or open a real source content, 
to make sure everything is processed as expected, before making the website go live. The general test lab's behavior is described here. The tags test lab has few additional features:
