Copy content from one lang to another

[Sepp]

Hi.
I have made my website now completly in german. Is there a posibility to copy the whole content to the second language (english)? It would save me a whole lot of time. (Some content are just images, so there is no need for separate translation)
Or isit possible to make some sites appear in both languages with the same content?

Probably you need this setting.

Site Admin » Global Settings » MLE settings » Show from DEFAULT_LANG if current lang is not ready:

This settings shows only the content from the default language if the language is empty.
When you switch in the admin panel to the other language every content block is empty!

Me too, I would like to have a feature which copies the content to other languages.
First it makes translation easier, as you can see the text to be translated and do not need to switch between pages.
Second additional content like formatting, tags, picture etc. will be transfered an there is no need to copy it piecemeal and adjust manualy.

There is no need to multiply exactly the same content.

If you insist though, there is "README.FIRST" in  CMS-mle-fork pre 1.6 (e.g. 1.5.3) with sql queries to copy monolingual content to all other languages. It can be worth doing if you want to change some text in different languages. But first i would look at module "Translation Manager" and variable {$lang}
