Disable translation for specific attribute?

Hi together!

I was wondering if it is possible to disable translation and maybe versioning for specific attributes of a class. E.g. I want to disable translation of an image-attribute so that the image-file is stored only once on the server for all languages.

Regards

Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,

You can disable translation for specific attribute in edit mode of your content class.

1. Go to Setup->Classes
2. Choose class to edit and click edit button
3. Disable translation (checkbox) for specific attribute
4. Save changes

Thanks for your reply!

I did disable translation for the Image-attribute in the specific class but there are still two directories showing up in the file system...

Hmm, I took a look at the eZp source code. Is it right that the files I see are just hard links? So the webspace is not wasted with multiple copies of one image? Are the images stored in "images-versioned" the reference files for the links?
