  I’m currently working with a site that uses 1 CMS, but manages 6 sites, each in 6 different languages (the company has 6 different branches – similar to say, honda: they would have a cars site, motorcycles site, generators, etc).

  I have 2 questions:

  1) Right now, each language for each site is independent. We basically create the pages in english, then just copy the tree over to the different languages, then translate them (we have people translate them – we don’t use google translate or any “on the fly” translator). Is there a way to make the English site the “master site”, but also give the ability for all pages to be translated (ie: the english site manages the pages, the childs/parents, whether pages are enabled/disabled, etc. So if you disable a page on the english site, it disables on all of them. If you add a page on the english site, it adds to all of them, and displays in English until it’s translated).

  2) The site is currently a mess, and we want to upgrade soon. How would you recommend the site to be structured/laid out (or maybe there is a better medium than wordpress for it?)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
