Multilanguage CSV Import possible?

Hi all,

just one short question and suggestion:

The feature list on the module page lists the following features:

  • Import content into website via web UI
  • Import content into nodes, users, taxonomy terms or other content entities
  • Granular mapping of input elements to Drupal content elements
  • Modify data before import using Feeds Tamper
  • Batched import for large files
  • Exportable configuration (you can export feed configuration and import into another site via web UI)
  • One-off imports and periodic aggregation of content
  • Import or aggregate RSS/Atom feeds
  • Import or aggregate CSV
  • Import JSON or XML using the Feeds extensible parsers module
  • PubSubHubbub support
  • Extensible to import any other kind of content

also I looked into the documentation, but couldn't find an answer:

Does Feeds allow to import nodes in different translations and if yes, how is it done?

I have a translatable content type with several simple text fields which should be filled from a feeds CSV import in the different translations.

Is that possible at all? And if yes, would that be done by additional columns (e.g. _en, _de, _es etc.?) or is there a single row per language? But how do I tell the system then, that it's the same content?

If possible:
Could that be added to the features list, for example:

  • Import language in multiple languages (translations) [linked to the documentation page]

If possible or not:
Could you perhaps create a Documentation page for such multilanguage scenarios, which gives an impression what's possible or not?
That might prevent such questions here :)

Thank you very very much in advance! :)

    Tagging issue with "multilanguage", so I can find this issue back as soon as I plan to focus on Feeds multilingual issues again.

    @MegaChriz: Just wanted to add that I am also very interested in importing content to different languages/translation sets
