Entry I18n

Entry I18n

Scope

• Entry-level i18n collections in project t1
• Create flow for collections that store one language per entry
• Draft language selection before the first save

Prerequisites

• Run in mock mode only
• Use project t1
• Collections:
  • articles_i18n for default-language create flow
  • articles_i18n_picklang for explicit language picker flow
  • articles_i18n_nested for nested languageField/groupField tests

Test Cases

ID	Description	Expected Result	Priority
EI18N-06	Open /entries/new for articles_i18n	Draft language switcher is visible, default language is preselected, hidden system fields stay hidden	High
EI18N-07	Change draft language before first save	Selected draft language becomes active and remains active after save	High
EI18N-08	Create from collection without usable default language	Language picker appears before navigation and selected language is prefilled in the draft	High
EI18N-08b	Duplicate an existing translated entry from EntryView	New draft keeps the source language active and visible translatable fields are prefilled from the source entry	High
EI18N-09	Run AI translate on an existing target-language entry	Best sibling source is picked by content score and language order, translatable fields update, non-translatable fields stay unchanged	High
EI18N-24	Use the Nova icon inside the create-language menu	The normal row still creates a copy, the Nova action creates the target language and immediately starts translation from the currently open source entry	High
EI18N-13	Edit a normal field in an existing translated entry	TranslationBar state stays stable and no extra sibling list GET is triggered while typing	High
EI18N-12	Press Ctrl+L on an existing translated entry	Entry view navigates to the next sibling language instead of only flashing the shortcut highlight	High
EI18N-25	Create translation from existing entry navigates to create mode with pre-filled fields	After clicking a target language in the create menu, the browser navigates to /entries/new?lang=; required fields from the source entry are preserved, non-required clearFields are emptied	High
EI18N-26	Create translation with unsaved changes shows dirty guard first	If the source entry has unsaved changes, a discard dialog appears before navigating to create mode	Medium
EI18N-60	Nested i18n: details.lang and details.translationGroup are hidden from form	The object field "details" is visible but the sub-fields "lang" and "translationGroup" are not rendered	High
EI18N-61	Nested i18n: regular fields are visible	title, slug, summary, body are visible and editable	High
EI18N-62	Nested i18n: TranslationBar shows language tabs	TranslationBar renders with DE active, EN/FR siblings visible	High
EI18N-63	Nested i18n: create translation from existing entry	Creating a translation navigates to create mode with pre-filled fields, details.lang is set to the target language	High

Edge Cases

• Direct deeplink to /entries/new should still get a usable default if one exists
• Collections without a default language must not silently create the wrong language
• Duplicating an EN or FR entry must not reopen the draft in the collection default language and hide the copied values in another language tab
• When multiple sibling source entries have equal content, the earlier configured language should win as deterministic fallback
• The Nova action in the create menu must keep the source pinned to the currently open language entry, even if another sibling would score higher globally
• Ctrl+L must not be swallowed by field-i18n logic when the collection only uses entry-level i18n
• Unsaved typing in non-language fields must not re-request sibling translations for the current translation group
• Nested i18n config (languageField inside an object field): the parent object stays visible but system sub-fields (lang, translationGroup) are filtered out in FieldRenderer
• Creating a translation in nested config: clone must correctly handle dotted clearField paths (e.g. empty nested title/body)
• Unterbrochener Create-Mode (Benutzer navigiert weg vor dem Speichern) muss keine verwaisten POSTs hinterlassen — der create-mode Clone-Flow erzeugt erst beim expliziten Speichern einen POST

Accessibility

• Language picker must be a modal dialog with focus trap and ESC close
• Draft language controls must stay keyboard accessible
• Existing-entry language switching via Ctrl+L must remain keyboard accessible and trigger real navigation
