Add, edit, or delete locales

You need to declare all locales that you want in your implementation. These locales are then available domain-wide as an attribute of your website or application.

The locale values are used to index items, to direct visitors to locale specific pages, and to create locale specific rules for all types of widgets.

Caution

Changes to the locale settings can have a domain-wide impact on your implementation. Verify your implementation to update affected sections.
