Creating the primary language variation label

In SharePoint 2013, a variation is a version of a site in a different language than the original. A variation label defines each site variation. The first variation label created defines the source site for the target sites to receive the published content from. In this recipe, we will create the primary language variation label.

How to do it…

Follow these steps to create the primary language variation label:

  1. Navigate to the site collection that will contain the source and target variations in your preferred web browser.
  2. Click on Site settings from the Settings menu.
  3. Click on Variation labels from the Site Collection Administration section as shown in the following screenshot:

  5. Set the location where the source and target sites will be contained. For instance, entering / will contain the sites in the root of the current site collection.
  6. Click on OK.

How it works…

The primary variation label defines the source language and the source site variations for the site collection. Subsequent variation labels will rollup to receive their content from the content published in the primary variation label based on the settings configured in the Configuring site collection variation settings recipe. The sites created for each label will be added to the site specified in the Location field for the Variations Home option.
