Hi All,

i'm having some issues regarding web site localization and I want to  
review if i'm doing well...

This are my steps:
1.- new folder www at /sites/default
1.1.- properties-advanced-locale: en
2.- some content-> pages with free text
3.- new folder news at www
4.- add some news inside

ok, now i have my website in english

How to localize?

1.- copy all, even siblings from www to www_es
2.- Administration-> Merge pages -> from www 2 www_es
3.- Change locale-> www_es (include subfolders) from en 2 es
4.- Open website and traduce all...
That's what i've done.

repeat this steps for other languages...

The first thing i want to know if i'm doing well... because now i have  
a problem: when i add content like pages with free text i can merge  
and goon, but with news i cannot localize them... i can't copy them to  
corresponding language folder...

How do i create localized (multilanguage) sites?
How do i mantain localized (multilanguage) sites?

Thanks in advice,

David.
