ECA Content: Create translation of an existing entity

Nice use case, and interesting question. I don't know the answer from the top of my head, but will do some research and let you know. If it's bot yet possible, I'm sure we will build a new action to make it work.

Awesome! Thank you!

I've looked into this, and it appears, that ECA can't create a translation for an existing entity yet. The Entity: create new action creates a new entity, not a translation of an existing entity. The Entity: load action loads an existing translation of an entity, but doesn't create a new one.

Several choices to be decided:

• Should that be a new action plugin or could this be added to the Entity: load action to create a translation if it doesn't yet exist?
• If it's going to be a new action, should that be part of eca_content or eca_language?

My preference is to create a new action in eca_content.

Thoughts?

I think it should indeed be a new action as part of eca_content. Entity load would be confusing for some users, for it may not be obvious that a translation can be created by loading a non-existent one. I think it fits in the eca_content part because it is a content operation and not yet a specific language operation until the translation for a language is created.

+1 Having this feature would be great
