Creates content file in multilanguage setup

[mullema]

Reference is this Thread

Multilanguage Setup (e.g. DE (default), EN)

• Creating a page via the frontend (e.g. $page->createChild($mycontent)) while EN is current language.
• Kirby creates new pages in default language only. Therefore the content file content.de.txt is created.
• autoid kicks in via hook and adds the hidden field for the current language thereby creating content.en.txt (because EN is current language)

To create the content.en.txt file at that point is an unexpected side effect from the autoid plugin.

A solution could be to update only existing content files.

is there a suggestion for a temporary fix? i would love testing it out with my setup.

@scsskid thanks for reminding me again. i still have no clear idea how to achieve the suggested solution to update only existing content files in actual code.

checking if the file exist seems a bit hacky to me. as far as i can tell there are no bugs cause by having the content.en.txt file being created, right?

i am currently working on a new version of the plugin with better multilang setup. i will include this issue in testscases to solve it properly.

I dont use your plugin currently, I just eval the issue list, since looking for sth to replace my legacy kirby2 solution, acutally I furthermore have missunderstood the issue
