Allow copying content on Synchronized trees #138

Closed rafaponieman closed 5 years ago

It would be great if you could at any point overwrite the page on another language with the current one in a certain language. Maybe this is possible but I couldn't find the way.

Thank you!!

This is not possible, wagtailtrans assumes that once the page is "translated" to a other language, the content is different from eachother, which makes it a bit weird to copy content since you have to start over with translating.

We're striving to offer good an solid multi language support for Wagtail here, don't think supporting each edge case is something we should be aiming for..

Having said that, I don't think it's to difficult to do this in your own project.. wagtail provides hooks which allows you to add extra buttons to the page explorer, like the translate into or edit in buttons provided by wagtailtrans.
