[opencms-dev] Problem with Default-Creation of english content on Multi-Language site

[Eska]

Hi Achim,

when setting the locale property of files to "zh", I get the desired
editing.
In my case, the  content defined in the locale property is preselected in 
the Language ComboBox and so your described "healing process" is not
invoked.

Thanks

Eska
