For example, because Arabic is partially localised, language fallback options could be either English, French, or both.
This particular multiple fallback feature is known as ‘chained fallback’ - that is, if a value isn’t found in the fallback language, Sitecore falls back to a third, fourth, or fifth option, and so on…
For international websites on Sitecore 8.1, language fallback is a great enhancement.
Language Fallback is fully configurable on the granular level, whereby Sitecore items, fields and templates can have fallback enabled.
Key features:
- Chained fallback
- Granular fallback control of items and fields
- Configurable site-level and template fields
- Language fallback rules
- Language selector indicates which languages have fallback versions enabled
- Versions selector on a fallback item displays the corresponding message
