Excluding Child Nodes from Translation

  2 minute read  

Before the Connector sends out content for translation, it copies over the source files to the target location. in CRXDE Lite:

  • You can use the TargetPageExcludedNodes property in the etc/ctctranslation/PageOptions node to delete child nodes after copying from the source to the target.

  • You can use the TargetPagePreservedNodes property in the etc/ctctranslation/PageOptions node to exclude child nodes when copying from the source to the target.

These settings are both useful if you want to exclude certain child nodes from translation while sending their parent nodes for translation.
