Hello

How can I check whether a given culture exists for some content? That is, I have content which exists in some lcids (1044), but not in others (1053).

I have tried to used this method in WAFSession:

public bool ContentExists(int nodeId, int lcid);

But this method returns true even if the content does not exist in the given lcid.

E.g:

bool existsInLanguage = WAFContext.Session.ContentExists(nodeId, lcid);
(the context is Edit)

So why does it return true? And if I can't use this method, which one can I use?

Hi, use "content.IsDerived"

It will return true if the content does not have content in the selected language. (and it is therefore "Derived" from another content)

So, to check do this:

var lcid = 1044;

var content = WAFContext.Session.GetContent(1010, lcid)

var hasLanguage = ! content.IsDerived;
