Everyone big news!

I thought of a better workaround for this while Webflow continues to gate essential features 🙃

In different locales, you are able to add attributes still. In a global custom embed or in your custom code head, add style tags with a selector and rule like:

<style>
[data-locale-hide] {
    display: none !important;
  }
</style>

Then, add the attribute name data-locale-hide to any element in another locale and it will be hidden on a per-element basis.

Note, if your style tags are in the site settings head custom code block, you will only see this in published site or in preview with code enabled, which is why code embeds are better as they show in the designer too.

This seems like such an essential feature which at the moment has to be worked around with utility classes (e.g. "hide-de" for German sites) but becomes a behemoth to manage when you have multiple locales. This is apparently in the enterprise plan? Please move this into standard localisation if it's already a feature, rather than making your non-enterprise customers waste time with workarounds to achieve the same result.

I'm currently working on a website with 6 locales, and the inability to hide specific sections based on locale is problematic for SEO. This limitation could lead to unnecessary content being shown to the wrong audiences, impacting the site's SEO performance. I need a way to selectively display content per locale while ensuring the best SEO practices are followed.

Adapting what to show or hide is part of "localization," which I would consider essential or, at the very least, advanced functionality. Without it, we're only dealing with "internationalization." I hope this feature becomes available to normal customers.

I've just been building two sites with localization and come across this issue — something so basic inside the enterprise plan, not even in $29 monthly add-on.

C'mon guys! E-commerces and even quite simple business sites don't want to show every element or page for every market.
