18 · Content fields are configured as not translatable¶


Project	Forma (site template)
Component	Configuration
Category	Bug report
Priority	Normal
Status	Reported upstream as #3615596

Problem/Motivation¶

The article and project fields field_content, field_description, field_location and field_quote_text are configured with translatable: false. On a multilingual site these texts cannot be translated; tools that localise default content skip them, so the complete article and project texts stay English while titles are translated.

Steps to reproduce¶

Install Drupal CMS with Forma and enable content translation for a second language.
Try to translate an article: the body and description fields are not translatable.

Proposed resolution¶

Make the content fields translatable (translatable: true).

Additional information¶

Also noticed: "The Oakridge Pavillion" → "Pavilion"; see the typo issue.
