I am starting new project to provide translation and create different language version of English website managed by EZ Publish CMS. I have the following question:

1- Do EZ Publish CMS have support for multilanguage sites (does it has the ability to have different language versions of the same page as other CMSs)?

2- EZ Publish CMS can import/export content (so we can translate it using trados and then import the translations back)?

3- how workflows work in order to implement review cycles and also notify us when somebody changes anything in the English site so we can translate that.?

4- Does the pages templates could support direction change (for the Arabic/RTL support)?

I really appreciate if some one can answer me or provide me with resources.

Yasser,

Welcome to the eZ Publish community!

1) Yes, eZ Publish is very strong in multilingual support. See http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/4_x/features/multi_language/working_with_translations.

2) Yes, there are import/export utilities available. I've not used trados, however. eZ Publish has native translation support.

3) Review cycle workflows: Yes (you can do a simple approval workflow or do something more complex with object states: http://ez.no/developer/articles/ez_publish_knowledge_series_editorial_workflow_with_object_states). Notifications: I'm not aware of language-based notifications, only node-based notifications. This may require a custom workflow.

4) Yes, we've done a site with both RTL and LTR languages. Template and CSS adjustments are of course necessary, but it's not difficult.
