Hello
From what I’ve read, the multisite feature is used to create a multilingual website. How tightly are the sites isolated from each other? For this to make sense, both sites should be able to use the same theme. This probably won’t work because the pages are localized. This might also apply to the layout.
How do you create bilingual websites without using any automatic translation plugin?
Thanks!
Cheers

Just create 2 sites and use them 
This answer isn’t very helpful.
Does this mean that a bilingual website doesn’t share common resources like CSS and that everything is duplicated? That would be complete nonsense.
first of, I would ask myself if the website is purely informative or does it use specific data models ?
If so, does this data model need to be translated or not ? example: an e-commerce product.
Hi Chris
The Website is mostly informative, text and images. It will have some simple Blueprints, eg. image gallery, staff listing etc.
Thanks!
ok, so according to your needs, what needs to be translated exactly ?
A multilingual site is characterized by the fact that all text and navigation entries are displayed in the desired language. In other words, everything you see.
The layout, markup, and CSS are language-independent.
Naturally, the “pages” must be maintained in duplicate. The editor must be able to enter the texts in, for example, German and English.
ok, then you can use Tailor with multisite synced on and multisite definition for every langages you need. It is quite straight forward.
